Objective:To investigate the correlation of atrophy and intestinal metaplasia (IM) stage with gastric cancer and to optimize biopsy strategy.Methods:Data of patients who underwent endoscopy and five-point biopsy at Shandong Provincial Hospital between November 2020 and October 2022 were collected. The baseline characteristics of gastric cancer and non-gastric cancer patients, as well as the occurrence and severity of atrophy and IM in different areas were compared. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the correlation of operative link for gastritis assessment (OLGA) and operative link for gastric intestinal metaplasia assessment (OLGIM) staging with gastric cancer. The Kendall tau correlation coefficient was used to compare the consistency of different biopsy strategies (two-point, three-point, and four-point) with the standard five-point biopsy in OLGA and OLGIM staging. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was further performed to compare the diagnostic performance of different biopsy strategies in identifying the OLGA and OLGIM Ⅲ-Ⅳ stage.Results:A total of 122 patients were included in the analysis, with age of 61.0±10.0 years. Multivariate analysis showed that OLGA staging was not associated with gastric cancer ( P=0.788), while OLGIM Ⅲ-Ⅳ staging was significantly correlated with gastric cancer ( P=0.006, OR=3.39, 95% CI: 1.41-8.17). The occurrence of atrophy and IM were higher in lesser curvature of the antrum [56.6% (69/122) and 66.4% (81/122)] and incisura angularis [57.4% (70/122) and 52.5% (64/122)], with higher severity, while lower in greater curvature of the corpus [2.5% (3/122) and 5.7% (7/122)], with lower severity. The consistency of four-point and three-point biopsies with standard five-point biopsy in OLGA and OLGIM staging was high. The consistency of three-point biopsy in incisura angularis, lesser curvature of the antrum and corpus was exceptionally high among them, with correlation coefficients of 0.969 and 0.987, respectively. Conclusion:OLGIM Ⅲ-Ⅳ stages increase the risk of gastric cancer. Three-point biopsy in incisura angularis, lesser curvature of the antrum and corpus are recommended for the screening and monitoring of atrophy or IM.

摘要
A simple, fast, and visual method for detecting antibodies against peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) using colloidal gold strips was developed. In this study, the pET-32a-N was transformed into Escherichia coli Rosetta (DE3) for expression. Hybridoma cell lines were generated by fusing SP2/0 myeloma cells with splenocytes from immunized mice with the expressed and purified N protein of PPRV. The PPRV N protein was labeled with colloidal gold particles as the gold-labeled antigen. The N protein served as the gold standard antigen and as the test (T) line-coated antigen, while the monoclonal antibody served as the quality control (C) line-coated antibody to assemble the colloidal gold immunochromatographic test strips for detecting antibodies against the N protein of PPRV. Hybridoma cell line designated as 1F1 was able to stably secrete the monoclonal antibody against the N protein of PPRV. The titer of 1F1 monoclonal antibody in ascites was 1:128 000 determined by indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), and the immunoglobulin subtype of the monoclonal antibody was IgG1, with kappa chain. The obtained monoclonal antibody was able to specifically recognize the N protein of PPRV, as shown by Western blotting and indirect immunofluorescent assay (IFA). The developed colloidal gold test strip method was able to detect PPRV antibodies specifically, and there was no difference between different batches of the test strips. Testing of a total of 122 clinical sera showed that the compliance rate of the test strip with ELISA test was 97.6%.The test strip assay developed in this study has good specificity, reproducibility, and sensitivity, and it can be used for the rapid detection of PPRV antibodies.

Objective:To study the changes and influencing factors of splanchnic regional saturation before and after feeding in preterm infants with feeding intolerance (FI).Methods:From December 2018 to August 2019, preterm infants with FI admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of our hospital within 24 hours after birth were prospectively enrolled in this same-patient before-after study. Splanchnic regional saturation (rSsO 2) and cerebral regional oxygenation (rSc0 2) 5 minutes before feeding and 1 hour after feeding were monitored using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The average values of rScO 2, rSsO 2 and splanchnic-cerebral oxygenation ratio (SCOR) before and after feeding were calculated. The clinical data including postnatal age, corrected gestational age and feeding methods (breastfeeding or formula feeding) were collected. Single-factor correlation analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of rSsO 2 before and after feeding. Results:A total of 41 preterm infants were included. No significant differences existed in rSsO 2, rScO 2 and SCOR before and after feeding ( P>0.05). The feeding methods showed relative prominent influences on the changes of rSsO 2 and SCOR before and after feeding. The breastfeeding infants had smaller changes of rSsO 2 and SCOR before and after feeding compared with formula feeding infants, the regression equations were Y=5.538-4.065X (model complex correlation coefficient was 0.414 determination coefficient R2=0.171, F=8.050, P<0.01) and Y=0.109-0.075X (model complex correlation coefficient was 0.405 determination coefficient R=0.1642, F=7.655, P<0.01). Conclusions:Proper feeding will not increase rSsO 2 in preterm infants with FI. Comparing with formula feeding infants, breastfeeding infants has more stable post-feeding rSsO 2.Breastfeeding should be the first choice for preterm infants with FI.

Objective:To explore the effect of exercise intervention on regulation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling pathway in overweight and obese pregnant women.Methods:The cohort was based on a randomized controlled trial (RCT) carried out by the same research group in Peking University First Hospital from December 2014 to July 2016. Overweight and obese patients who delivered by elective cesarean section without pregnancy complications were recruited, among which 12 cases in the exercise group and 11 cases in the control group were selected. Real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western Blot, and Luminex experiments were used to compare the expression of TLR4-myeloid differentiation factor 8(MyD88)-nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB) pathway in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC), rectus abdominis muscle, omental adipose, and subcutaneous adipose, as well as the levels of inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-10) in plasma between the two groups. Two independent samples t-test, generalized estimating equation, Chi-square test, and Pearson correlation analysis were adopted for statistical analysis. Results:(1) The expression of inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-1β in the exercise group showed a downward trend compared with the control in the second and third trimester, but none of the differences were statistically significant (all P>0.05). (2) The mRNA expression of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB and the protein expression of TLR4 and NF-κB in PBMC of the exercise group were significantly lower than those in the control group during pregnancy (TLR4 mRNA: 0.06±0.03 vs 0.10±0.04 in the second trimester, 0.05±0.02 vs 0.11±0.05 in the third trimester, χ2=8.07; MyD88 mRNA: 0.09±0.03 vs 0.11±0.03 in the second trimester, 0.10±0.04 vs 0.17±0.06 in the third trimester, χ2=5.81; NF-κB mRNA: 0.10±0.03 vs 0.17±0.08 in the second trimester, 0.08±0.03 vs 0.20±0.08 in the third trimester, χ2=14.71; TLR4 protein: 1.7±0.5 vs 1.9±0.8 in the second trimester, 1.7±0.4 vs 2.3±0.8 in the third trimester, χ2=5.83; NF-κB protein: 1.0±0.4 vs 1.5±0.4 in the second trimester, 1.2±0.3 vs 1.5±0.5 in the third trimester, χ2=4.73; all P<0.05). Moreover, the differences in the mRNA expression of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB and TLR4 protein expression in PBMC between the two groups gradually increased. (3) NF-κB in rectus abdominis and omental adipose tissue (0.04±0.02 vs 0.08±0.04, t=－3.72; 0.25±0.05 vs 0.63±0.21, t=－5.41; both P<0.05) and TLR4 and MyD88 in subcutaneous adipose tissue (0.12±0.03 vs 0.30±0.10, t=－5.30; 0.24±0.09 vs 0.44±0.08, t=－5.38; both P<0.05) were observed a decreased mRNA level in the exercise group compared with the control group. The protein level of MyD88 and NF-κB in omental adipose tissue and NF-κB in subcutaneous adipose tissue in the exercise group were significantly lower than those in the control group (1.1±0.5 vs 2.0±0.8, t=－3.15; 1.3±0.5 vs 2.0±0.9, t=－2.23; 1.2±0.5 vs 1.9±0.8, t=－2.80, all P<0.05). (4) The expressions of TLR4 and NF-κB mRNA ( r=0.453 and 0.485) in rectus abdominis muscle, NF-κB mRNA, TLR4 and MyD88 protein ( r=0.539, 0.437 and 0.527) in omental adipose in the two groups were positively correlated with the level of fasting blood glucose ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Regular exercise during pregnancy can down-regulate the expression and activation of the TLR4-MyD88-NFκB pathway in overweight and obese pregnant women. The expression of related factors along this pathway has a certain correlation with fasting blood glucose.

Objective:To investigate the expression of placental glucose transport protein (GLUT)1 and 4 in women with hyperglycemia in pregnancy.Methods:A total of 48 full-term singleton pregnant women who underwent elective cesarean section at Peking University First Hospital from January 2017 to December 2019 were included retrospectively, and were divided into pregestational diabetes mellitus (PGDM) group, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) group, and normal glucose tolerance (NGT) group (16 women in each). According to the blood glucose level after control during pregnancy, the PGDM and GDM groups were further divided into PGDM-, GDM-well controlled subgroups (both n=10), and PGDM-, GDM-uncontrolled subgroups (both n=6). The expression of GLUT1 and GLUT4 proteins, detected by Western blot, between different groups were compared and the correlation between GLUT1 and GLUT4 protein expression and the pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), pre-delivery weight,gestational weight gain (GWG), and neonatal birth weight were analyzed using two independent samples t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis H-test, Chi-square test, and Pearson correlation analysis. Results:(1) The pre-pregnanct BMI and insulin treatment ratio in PGDM group were higher than those in GDM group and NGT group [27.0 kg/m 2 (22.1-29.9 kg/m 2) vs 22.9 kg/m 2 (20.5-25.7 kg/m 2) and 21.7 kg/m 2 (20.5-24.3 kg/m 2); 13/16 vs 1/16 and 0/16; all P<0.05]. In the PGDM group, fasting blood glucose at the second trimester and mean glycosylated hemoglobin during the second and the third trimester were higher than those in the GDM group [(6.1±1.2) vs (5.0±0.4) mmol/L; (5.9±0.5)% vs (5.2±0.3)%; both P<0.05]. (2) GLUT1 protein level was the highest in the PGDM group, followed by the GDM and NGT group (1.251±0.354 vs 1.004±0.368 vs 0.733±0.216, both P<0.05). And all the subgroups had higher protein level than NGT group [PGDM-good (1.270±0.417); PGDM-uncontrolled (1.218±0.245), GDM-well controlled (0.900±0.424); GDM-uncontrolled (1.177±0.158); LSD test,all P<0.05]. The variation of GLUT4 protein level was consistent with GLUT1. There was no significant difference in GLUT1 and GLUT4 expression between PGDM-uncontrolled and PGDM-well controlled subgroups, neither between GDM-uncontrolled and GDM-well controlled subgroups (all P>0.05). (3) GLUT1 and GLUT4 in the PGDM-well controlled subgroup, as well as GLUT1 in the GDM-uncontrolled subgroup, had a positive correlation with GWG ( r=0.635, 0.810, and 0.833, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The increased expression of placental GLUT1 and GLUT4 were associated with different types of gestational hyperglycemia and GWG. However, glucose control has little effect on placental GLUT expression.

Objective:To study the intraoperative surgical factors which influenced non-immediate postoperative tracheal extubation (IPTE) after liver transplantation.Methods:The clinical data of all liver transplant recipients operated at the Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from January 2011 to July 2019 were reviewed. Patients who returned to a surgical ward with a tracheal cannula or who underwent re-intubation within 48 hours after IPTE because of hypoxemia were assigned to the cannula-preserving group (non-IPTE). The remaining liver recipients were assigned to the control group (IPTE). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the risk factors influencing IPTE.Results:Of 70 patients enrolled into this study, there were 30 patients in the cannula-preserving group (with 25 males, 5 females, and age of 51.8±7.3). And 40 patients in the control group (with 35 males, 5 females, and age of 48.4±9.6). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed anhepatic phase >45 min, blood loss >800 ml and intraoperative hypothermia were related with non-IPTE after liver transplantation(all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed anhepatic phase >45 min ( OR=3.972, 95% CI: 1.193-13.220, P=0.025) and intraoperative hypothermia ( OR=23.682, 95% CI: 2.434-230.438, P=0.006) increased the risk of unsuccessful IPTE. Conclusion:A long anhepatic phase and intraoperative hypothermia were surgical risk factors affecting non-IPTE after liver transplantation. Surgeons should avoid patients having hypothermia and a prolong anhepatic phase during liver transplantation.
摘要
Pregnant women with preexisting diabetes have increased adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes.Preconception planning is necessary for avoiding unintended pregnancies and mitigating risk of congenital defects.The recommended glycosylated hemoglobin goals are ＜6.5％ before conception and ＜6.0％ during pregnancy.Screening and management for diabetic complications are critical,strict blood pressure control goal need to be achieved,especially for those complicated by nephropathy.Continuous glucose monitoring during pregnancy might help improve blood glucose control for women with type 1 diabetes.Insulin is still the first-line therapy for pregnant women with preexisting diabetes.Optimization of glycemic control,appropriate medication regimens and close attention to comorbidities can help minimize the matemal and neonatal adverse outcomes and ensure the quality of clinical management for women with preexisting diabetes before,during,and after pregnancy.

Regenerative therapy holds great promise in the development of cures of some untreatable diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, and pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) including induced PSCs (iPSCs) are the most important regenerative seed cells. Recently, differentiation of human PSCs into functional tissues and cells in vitro has been widely reported. However, although porcine reports are rare they are quite essential, as the pig is an important animal model for the in vitro generation of human organs. In this study, we reprogramed porcine embryonic fibroblasts into porcine iPSCs (piPSCs), and differentiated them into cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31)-positive endothelial cells (ECs) (piPSC-derived ECs, piPS-ECs) using an optimized single-layer culture method. During differentiation, we observed that a combination of GSK3β inhibitor (CHIR99021) and bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) promoted mesodermal differentiation, resulting in higher proportions of CD31-positive cells than those from separate CHIR99021 or BMP4 treatment. Importantly, the piPS-ECs showed comparable morphological and functional properties to immortalized porcine aortic ECs, which are capable of taking up low-density lipoprotein and forming network structures on Matrigel. Our study, which is the first trial on a species other than human and mouse, has provided an optimized single-layer culture method for obtaining ECs from porcine PSCs. Our approach can be beneficial when evaluating autologous EC transplantation in pig models.

Recently, differentiation of human PSCs into functional tissues and cells in vitro has been widely reported. However, although porcine reports are rare they are quite essential, as the pig is an important animal model for the in vitro generation of human organs. In this study, we reprogramed porcine embryonic fibroblasts into porcine iPSCs (piPSCs), and differentiated them into cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31)-positive endothelial cells (ECs) (piPSC-derived ECs, piPS-ECs) using an optimized single-layer culture method. During differentiation, we observed that a combination of GSK3β inhibitor (CHIR99021) and bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) promoted mesodermal differentiation, resulting in higher proportions of CD31-positive cells than those from separate CHIR99021 or BMP4 treatment. Importantly, the piPS-ECs showed comparable morphological and functional properties to immortalized porcine aortic ECs, which are capable of taking up low-density lipoprotein and forming network structures on Matrigel. Our study, which is the first trial on a species other than human and mouse, has provided an optimized single-layer culture method for obtaining ECs from porcine PSCs. Our approach can be beneficial when evaluating autologous EC transplantation in pig models.

Objective To investigate the long-term effects of regular exercise during pregnancy on overweight and obese gravidas. Methods This study was based on a previous randomized controlled trial (RCT) regarding Effect of Regular Exercise Commenced in Early Pregnancy on the Incidence of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus in Overweight and Obese Pregnant Women conducted at Peking University First Hospital from December 2014 to July 2016. Totally 265 women whose prepregnant body mass index (BMI) ≥24.0 kg/m2 were enrolled in the RCT and were randomly assigned to exercise group (n=132) and control group (n=133). This study was a follow-up of all the participants at one year after delivery from March 2016 to August 2017. Body weight, body fat, fasting and 2 h glucose level in 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), insulin resistance index and lipid profiles were compared. We also evaluated their physical activities with International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), their dietary habits with modified Adult Dietary Behavior Assessment Scale and depression condition with Postpartum Depression Screen Scale (PDSS). Two independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and Chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. ResuLts The overall follow-up rate was 51.7% (137/265), while 64.4% (85/132) in the exercise group and 39.1% (52/133) in the control group. No significant difference in body weight loss [2.3 ( － 6.0 to 5.0) vs 1.0 ( － 1.3 to 4.7) kg], body fat percentage [(38.04±4.54)% vs (37.51±4.90) %], 2 h glucose level in 75 g OGTT [(7.30±2.80) vs (7.32±1.61) mmol/L], abnormal glucose tolerance ratio [30.0% (9/30) vs 28.8% (17/59)] or insulin resistance index (2.92±1.77 vs 2.86±1.92) was found between the control and exercise group (t or Z= － 0.940, 0.312, 3.415, 0.005, 1.743, all P>0.05). However, the fasting blood glucose in 75 g OGTT was higher in the control group [(5.53±0.92) vs (5.28±0.43) mmol/L, t=9.268, P=0.003]. The two groups showed no significant difference (exercise group vs control group) in physical activity level [219 (99-504) vs 195 (99-351)], total score of dietary habits [79.00 (72.50-87.50) vs 76.00 (70.00-82.00)] or PDSS score of depression [55.00 (41.00-77.00) vs 70.00 (46.25-84.75)] at follow-up (Z=－0.808, －1.822, －1.620, all P>0.05). Moreover, there was no significant difference in the level of serum triglyceride [(1.25±1.04) vs (1.42±0.85) mmol/L], total cholesterol [(4.56±0.71) vs (4.40±0.67) mmol/L], high density lipoprotein-cholesterol [(1.32±0.29) vs (1.22±0.21) mmol/L] or low density lipoprotein-cholesterol [(2.67±0.56) vs (2.55±0.52) mmol/L] between the exercise and control group (t=0.001, 0.020, 3.255, 0.303, all P>0.05). ConcLusions Regular exercise during pregnancy has no long-term effect on maternal health in the absence of continuing lifestyle intervention after delivery. Therefore, postpartum follow-up and continued education on healthy lifestyle should be emphasized.

Objective@#To understand the health literacy and healthy city satisfaction of residents in Ningbo,and to provide a basis for further development of healthy city .@*Methods@#The permanent residents aged 15 years old and above in six urban districts of Ningbo were selected by stratified multi-stage sampling and probability-proportionate-to-size sampling method. The health literacy and healthy city satisfaction of residents were surveyed by a self-designed questionnaire. Multivariate linear regression model was used to analyze the correlation between health literacy and healthy city satisfaction .@*Results@#A total of 3 300 people were investigated and 3 035 valid questionnaires were returned,with an effective rate of 91.97%. The scores of health literacy were 22.67±4.83 in males and 23.04±3.13 in females;the scores of healthy city satisfaction were 3.30±0.32 in males and 3.31±0.33 in females;there were no statistically significant differences in the scores above between genders（P>0.05）. The scores of health literacy were 25.65±4.14 in the residents aged 35-44 years and 20.34±3.54 in the residents aged 15-34 years;the scores of healthy city satisfaction were 3.16±0.32 in the former and 3.45±0.31 in the latter;the former scored higher in health literacy but lower in healthy city satisfaction than the latter （both P<0.05）. The scores of health literacy were 23.80±3.90 in the married residents and 18.94±3.22 in the single,divorced or widowed ones;the scores of healthy city satisfaction were 3.35±0.33 in the former and 3.22±0.32 in the latter;the former scored higher both in health literacy and healthy city satisfaction than the latter （both P<0.05）. The results of multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the higher the scores of health literacy,the higher the scores of healthy city satisfaction （β'=0.028,P<0.05） .@*Conclusion@#Improving health literacy of residents could improve their satisfaction with healthy city construction.
