SUMMARY: A great deal of attention of air pollution on respiratory health is increasing, particularly in relation to haze days. It is that exposure to cigarette smoke augments the toxicity of common air contaminants, thereby increasing the complexity of respiratory diseases. Although there are various mechanisms involved to respiratory diseases caused or worsen by cigarette smoking, in which the role of AQPs in the lung with regard to fluid homeostasis still remains elusive. In this paper, we copied the rat models based on smoke generator, and investigated the morphological changes of mucosa and related functions depending on the balance of lining liquid of alveoli via AQPs expression. Compared with normal group, weak labelling of AQP1 and AQP5 protein abundance were clearly detected in the corresponding part of smoke exposure groups compared with normal group. Hence, it is suggested that the contribution of AQPs in the lung is diminished, thereby causing perturbed balancing between resorptive and secretory fluid homeostasis under cigarette smoking.
Cada vez se presta más atención a la contaminación del aire en la salud respiratoria, particularmente, en relación con los días de neblina. En consecuencia la exposición al humo del cigarrillo aumenta la toxicidad de los contaminantes comunes del aire, lo que además aumenta la complejidad de las enfermedades respiratorias. Aunque existen varios mecanismos involucrados en las enfermedades respiratorias causadas o empeoradas por el tabaquismo, en las que el papel de las AQP en el pulmón respecto a la homeostasis de líquidos sigue siendo difícil de alcanzar. En este artículo, copiamos los modelos de rata basados en el generador de humo e investigamos los cambios morfológicos de la mucosa y las funciones relacionadas según el equilibrio del líquido de revestimiento de los alvéolos a través de la expresión de AQP. En comparación con el grupo normal, se detectó claramente un etiquetado débil de la abundancia de proteínas AQP1 y AQP5 en la parte correspondiente de los grupos de exposición al humo en comparación con el grupo control. Por lo tanto, se sugiere que la contribución de las AQP en el pulmón está disminuida, provocando así un equilibrio perturbado entre la homeostasis del líquido secretor y de reabsorción bajo el hábito de fumar cigarrillos.

Objective@#To investigate the associations of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) and screen time (ST) with emotional and behavioral problems in children and to provide evidence for related intervention measures.@*Methods@#In March 2017, a total of 4 922 children aged 6-12 years from 5 primary schools in Guangzhou were enrolled using stratified random cluster sampling method. Questionnaires were used to assess children s socio demographic information, MVPA, ST and emotional and behavioral problems. The associations of MVPA and ST with behavioral problems were explored by using generalized linear mixed models.@*Results@#Students with MVPA≥60 min per day accounted for 37.5%, and with ST≤2 h per day accounted for 87.7%. Children who were physically active showed lower scores for total difficulties, hyperactivity, and peer problems and higher score for prosocial than inactive peers( t =2.80, 2.47, 2.56, -1.97, all P <0.05). Also, children who spent less than 2 h ST per day reported lower scores for total difficulties, emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity, and peer problems and higher score for prosocial compared to those with high ST( t =3.18, 3.35, 3.70, 3.80, -3.21, 4.97, all P <0.05). Children who met neither MVPA nor ST recommendations had significantly increased risks of total difficulties( OR=1.73, 95%CI =1.12-2.68), conduct problems( OR=1.45, 95%CI =1.02-2.05), peer problems( OR=1.93, 95%CI =1.11-3.36), and prosocial ( OR=1.55, 95%CI =1.08-2.23) than those who met both.@*Conclusion@#MVPA and ST are independently related to children s emotional and behavioral problems, and the risks of emotional and behavioral problems increased in children with insufficient MVPA and longer ST.

The current study was designed to evaluate the modulatory effects of paeoniflorin on the dysregulated gut microbiota as well as the disturbed fecal bile acids (BAs) in colitis mice. After approved by Xi'an Jiaotong University Ethics Committees (Approval No. XJTU2019-679), the animals were randomly distributed into the control (Con), colitis, low dose paeoniflorin (PF-L, 25 mg·kg-1·d-1), high dose paeoniflorin (PF-H, 50 mg·kg-1·d-1) and 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA, 50 mg·kg-1·d-1) groups. Colitis was induced by administering 3% (w/v) DSS in drinking water for 7 days. Paeoniflorin and 5-ASA were dissolved in water and administered to the appropriate groups by oral gavage over the 7-day period. The mice were monitored daily, and the disease activity index (DAI) comprising of body weight loss, stool consistency and gross blood was measured. The pathological changes of colon were evaluated by HE staining; the levels of inflammatory cytokines in colonic tissue were determined by ELISA; the gut permeability was measured by FITC-dextran. Microbiota analysis based on 16S rDNA and targeted metabolomics for BAs were used to evaluate the composition of gut microbiota and fecal BAs pool. The results showed that administration of paeoniflorin markedly alleviated the inflammatory response and intestinal barrier dysfunction in DSS-induced colitis. Importantly, these ameliorative effects of paeoniflorin were accompanied by the improvements of disturbed composition of gut microbiota and the dysmetabolism of bile acids in feces. Finally, we performed Spearman's correlation analysis between the fecal BAs and gut microbiota genera, and found that Lactobacillus has a strong positive correlation with DCA and LCA which were reported to confer the beneficial effects of maintaining intestinal homeostasis. Taken together, paeoniflorin might improve the intestinal homeostasis in colitis mice via modulating gut microbiota and fecal BAs metabolism.

OBJECTIVES: This study explored the clinical efficacy of VitalStim electrical stimulation combined with swallowing function training for patients with dysphagia following an acute stroke. METHODS: Seventy-two patients with dysphagia following an acute stroke were admitted to our hospital and were further divided into two groups using prospective research methods. There were 36 cases in each group according to the random number table method. The control group received conventional medical treatment and swallowing function training while the experimental group received conventional medical treatment and VitalStim electrical stimulation combined with swallowing function training. RESULTS: The overall response rate of the experimental group (94.44%) was higher than that of the control group (77.78%), and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). Compared with before treatment, the upward and forward movement speeds of the hyoid bone, anterior movement speed, the grading score of the Kubota drinking water test, Caiteng's grading score, serum superoxide dismutase, 5-hydroxytryptamine, and norepinephrine levels, Fugl-Meyer Assessment score, and multiple quality of life scores of the two groups showed improvement after treatment. While the standard swallowing assessment score, serum malondialdehyde level, and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score decreased, the aforementioned indices showed a significant improvement in the experimental group (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicate that VitalStim electrical stimulation combined with swallowing function is effective for treating dysphagia following an acute stroke. It can effectively improve swallowing, neurological, and limb motor functions, reduce complications, promote physical recovery, and improve overall quality of life of patients.

Background: Even with the use of contrast-enhanced thin-layer chest computed tomography (CT) and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), the likelihood of cT2N0M0 squamous cell esophageal cancer correlating with the final pathologic outcome is exceedingly low. We therefore sought to investigate the associations between different risk factors and pathologic upstaging in stage T2N0M0 esophageal cancer patients who underwent esophagectomy. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the clinicopathological characteristics of 224 stage T2N0M0 squamous cell esophageal cancer patients who underwent complete resection over a 2-year period (October 2016–September 2018). The tumor volume (TV) was automatically measured from thin-layer chest CT scans using imaging software. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the risk factors associated with upstaging. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted, and its ability to identify pathological upstaging was assessed. Results: A total of 224 patients with clinical stage T2N0M0 squamous cell esophageal carcinoma (SCEC) underwent esophagectomy; of these patients, 96 (42.86%) had a more advanced stage during the final pathologic review than during the initial diagnosis. The risk factors for pathologic upstaging included a large TV, high total cholesterol (TC), high triglycerides (TGs), high platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and high number of lymph nodes examined. The ROC analysis demonstrated an area under the curve of 0.845 (95% confidence interval 0.794–0.895). Conclusions: In SECC diagnosed as stage T2N0M0 by CT and EUS, the incidence of postoperative pathologic upstaging increases with a large TV, high TC, high TGs, high PLR, and high number of lymph nodes examined

Objective@#To evaluate the third round of Zhejiang Comprehensive AIDS Response (CARES) program (nine national areas and three provincial areas) and the control effect of AIDS, so as to provide reference for AIDS prevention and control. @*Methods@#According to the final assessment protocol of the third round of China CARES, the data of 23 assessment items which were collected from online database and field investigation for 12 response areas of Zhejiang in 2014 and 2018 were evaluated. The endemic situation and detection of AIDS in CARES areas was compared with those in non-CARES areas, in order to evaluate the achievement of Zhejiang CARES areas.@*Results@#The rates of reaching the standard ranged from 91.30% to 100.00% in 12 CARES areas. Six indexes in leadership and innovation, fifteen (seventeen in total) indexes in HIV/AIDS control and prevention reached the standard. The items that failed included the awareness rates of AIDS and indicators in “prevention and intervention”. The rates of of reaching the standard in “publicity and education”, “monitoring and testing”, “prevention and intervention”, and “treatment and follow-up” increased from 55.56%, 79.17%, 79.76% and 65.00% in 2014 to 91.67%, 100.00%, 90.48% and 100.00% in 2018, respectively. The proportion of HIV testing people in permanent residents was 30.94% in CARES areas in 2018, which was significantly higher than 20.70% in non-CARES areas (P<0.05). The proportion of new reported HIV/AIDS in CARES areas was 50.87%, and the average increase was 4.48%, which was lower than 9.95% in non-CARES areas.@*Conclusion@#The third round of Zhejiang CARES program has remarkable achievement and plays a positive role in the prevention and control of AIDS.

Objective@#To understand the dietary behavior of Tibetan primary school students in Lhasa from 2014 to 2019, and to provide support for dietary behavior improvement.@*Methods@#In 2014 and 2019, 1 128 and 1 214 Tibetan primary school students in Lhasa were investigated for dietary behavior, and the results were compared.@*Results@#The proportion of Tibetan primary school students in Lhasa who eat breakfast at home every day in 2019 (10.30%) was significantly higher than in 2014(2.39%), and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=60.17, P<0.01). The proportion of students who took the recommended amount of meat, eggs, and dairy products in 2019 was higher than in 2014, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=242.05, 4.23, 14.16, P<0.05). In 2014 and 2019, the difference in the proportion of intake of vegetables and fruits was statistically significant(χ2=132.45, 115.64, P<0.01). In terms of the different types of beverages that were consumed the most in 2019, the differences were statistically significant(P<0.01); the intake frequencies were also significantly different(P<0.01).@*Conclusion@#The dietary behavior of Tibetan primary school students in Lhasa has generally improved, but the problems of overweight and obesity caused by excessive energy intake and excessive intake of sugary beverages deserves more attention.

A sensitive and simple high-performance liquid chromatographic tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method for the determination of verapamil and norverapamil in human plasma was established and utilized in a pharmacokinetic study in healthy patients. Protein was precipitated by methanol in plasma samples, and the analytes and internal standard were separated on an Agilent Zorbax Eclipse C18 column (50 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) with a gradient procedure using methanol-acetonitrile (50∶50) as the organic phase and 0.1% formic acid - 5% acetonitrile - 10 mmol·L-1 ammonium formate solution as the mobile phase at flow rate of 0.5 mL·min-1. Electrospray ionization (ESI) and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) detection modes were used for quantitative detection of verapamil, norverapamil and verapamil-d6 (IS). In the mode of multiple reaction monitoring of positive-ions, the monitoring ion pairs of verapamil, norverapamil and the verapamil-d6 were m/z 445.0→165.2, m/z 441.0→165.2 and m/z 461.1→165.2, respectively. The quantitative lower limit (LLOQ) for the determination of verapamil and norverapamil concentrations in human plasma can reach 0.1 ng·mL-1 in this assay. The calibration curve concentration ranged from 0.1 to 50 ng·mL-1 with high linearity (r2 > 0.997). The matrix effect of verapamil and norverapamil was 99.2%-100% and 101%-102%, respectively. The recovery of verapamil and norverapamil was 86.8%-95.9% and 87.4%-94.8%, respectively. This method has good specificity and high sensitivity. The determination of the verapamil and norverapamil was not subject to the matrix effect and stable extraction recovery was achieved in this assay. This method could be used to determine the concentration of verapamil and norverapamil in human plasma and suitable for human pharmacokinetic studies after approved by ethics committee.
