ObjectiveTo analyze the HIV infection characteristics and influencing factors among the spouses of HIV/AIDS patients in Shanghai. MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted to collect demographic, behavioral, epidemiological and spousal HIV detection information of newly reported and married patients with HIV/AIDS in Shanghai from January 2018 to July 2022 in the comprehensive HIV prevention and control information system of Chinese Center for Disease Prevention and Control. Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the HIV positivity rate of the spouses of HIV patients and the influencing factors were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression models. ResultsA total of 1 233 subjects were investigated, and the first HIV-testing positivity rate of the spouses of HIV/AIDS patients was 29.3% (361/1 233). There were statistically significant differences in the HIV-testing positivity rate among spouses of HIV/AIDS patients by different age, gender, education level, occupation, transmission route, quantity of non-marital sexual activities, quantity of homo-sexual activities, and baseline CD4 cell count level (P<0.05). Spouses of the HIV/AIDS patients aged ≥65 years old, female, heterosexual transmission, less non-marital sex, and no history of homosexual sex had relatively high HIV positive rate. The HIV-positive detection rate of spouses in the ≥65 age group was 1.81 times higher than that in the <45 age group. The HIV-positive detection rate of spouses in the female group was 3.66 times higher than that in the male group, and the HIV-positive detection rate of spouses in the homosexual transmission group was 0.25 times higher than that of the heterosexual transmission group. ConclusionRisk awareness of HIV infection among married people with spouses should be improved. The key populations with the characteristics such as females as the first HIV-positive reporter, and heterosexual transmission should be paid special attention.Their spouses should be mobilized to conduct HIV-testing as early as possible
摘要
Peritoneal metastasis is one of the most frequent patterns of metastasis in gastric cancer, and remains a major unmet clinical problem. Thus, systemic chemotherapy remains the mainstay of treatment for gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis. In well-selected patients, the reasonable combination of cytoreductive surgery, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), and neoadjuvant intraperitoneal chemotherapy with systemic chemotherapy will bring significant survival benefits to patients with gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis. In patients with high-risk factors, prophylactic therapy may reduce the risk of peritoneal recurrence, and improves survival after radical gastrectomy. However, high-quality randomized controlled trials will be needed to determine which modality is better. The safety and efficacy of intraoperative extensive intraperitoneal lavage as a preventive measure has not been proven. The safety of HIPEC also requires further evaluation. HIPEC and neoadjuvant intraperitoneal and systemic chemotherapy have achieved good results in conversion therapy, and it is necessary to find more efficient and low-toxicity therapeutic modalities and screen out the potential benefit population. The efficacy of CRS combined with HIPEC on peritoneal metastasis in gastric cancer has been preliminarily validated, and with the completion of clinical studies such as PERISCOPE II, more evidence will be available.

Depression is a common emotional mental disorder. Patients not only continuously showed depression, pessimism and apathy in mood, but also have gastrointestinal symptoms such as anorexia and constipation in body. Widely attention has been also received in the potential biological role of gut microbiota in the pathogenesis of depression. It plays an important role in the interaction between the intestine and the brain, not only affecting the intestinal barrier function, but also maintaining the homeostasis of host through the microbiota-gut-brain axis. In recent years, the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has the advantages of obvious therapeutic effects and few side effects when treating neuropsychiatric diseases, such as depression. The pharmacological mechanism of TCM exerting antidepressant effects by regulating the structure of gut microbiota, reducing displacement, and maintaining the normal function of gut microbiota has been also widely concerned. By investigating the relevant literature in recent years, this paper summarizes the antidepressant effect of TCM in different directions such as Chinese medicine monomer, single medicine and compound medicine. And this paper reviews the antidepressant effects and mechanisms of TCM at different levels, such as the correction of gut microbiota structure, the regulation of immunity, the transplantation of gut microbiota and the regulation of its metabolites. This paper will provide a basis for further explaining the mechanism of gut microbiota in depression and the mechanism of antidepressant effect of TCM.
摘要
The incidence of Siewert type II adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) is increasing year by year. Due to its special anatomical location and biological behavior, the treatment of AEG is still controversial in terms of lymph node dissection, the esophageal resection margin, range of gastrectomy, and the choice of reconstruction modality for postoperative gastrointestinal tract. The advent of the minimally invasive era has brought the treatment of Siewert type II AEG to a stage of gradual improvement and standardization. Experts of China are also actively exploring the value of minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of AEG through multicenter trials (CLASS-10, etc.). It is believed that based on the active development of many clinical studies, basic experimental studies and large prospective clinical studies, the strengthening of communication and cooperation among various disciplines and the innovative application of new technologies can bring greater survival benefits to patients.

By consulting ancient herbal medicines, medical and prescription books, combined with modern documents, the textual research of Morindae Officinalis Radix has been conducted to verify the name, origin, changes in production areas, quality evaluation, harvesting, and processing methods, so as to provide reference and basis for the development and utilization of the famous classical formulas. After textual research, the production areas of Morindae Officinalis Radix has experienced great changes from north to south in history. The original plants involve 11 families, 14 genera and 21 species, and the mainstream varieties in ancient times were Damnacanthus officinarum and D. indicus, and the basis of Morindae Officinalis Radix in modern times has changed into the dry roots of Morinda officinalis produced in Guangdong province and other places. The medicinal parts of Morindae Officinalis Radix in ancient and modern times are all roots, and the quality is better if it has many beads, thick flesh, and purple color. Ancient medical books recorded that it was usually harvested in February and August, dried in the shade, and used to remove the wood core. And the modern harvesting and processing method is to dig throughout the year, first remove the fibrous roots, dry in the sun until 60%-70% dry, gently beat flatten and dry in the sun. The processing methods of the past dynasties are mainly salt-, vinegar-, wine-processed, etc. Based on the systematic research of Morindae Officinalis Radix, from the perspective of clinical experience and safety and effectiveness, it is recommended that the famous classical formulas should be developed from the mainstream variety since modern times, namely Morindae Officinalis Radix.
摘要
BACKGROUND@#Although increasing abnormal expression of circular RNAs (circRNAs) has been revealed in various cancers, there were a small number of studies about circRNAs in gastric cancer (GC). Here, we explored the expression and function of a novel circRNA, circ_0049447, in GC.@*METHODS@#A total of 80 GC tissues and non-tumorous tissues were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University. And all cells were cultured with 10% fetal bovine serum and incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2. The expression of circ_0049447 was quantified by real-time polymerase chain reaction. The biological function of circ_0049447 on proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) was evaluated by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), colony formation assay, transwell migration and invasion assay, and Western blotting. Luciferase report assay was used to verify the direct binding between circ_0049447 and predicted microRNA (miRNA). Furthermore, a xenograft mouse model was used to validate the function of circ_0049447 in vivo.@*RESULTS@#We demonstrated that circ_0049447 was downregulated in GC (P < 0.001). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve reached 0.838, while sensitivity was 82.3% and specificity was 77.2%. CCK-8 and colony formation assay showed that overexpression of circ_0049447 could inhibit the proliferation (P < 0.05). Transwell migration and invasion assay showed upregulated circ_0049447 could impede migration in GC cells (P < 0.05). In addition, overexpression of circ_0049447 could impede GC cell EMT. Upregulation of miR-324-5p in GC specimens and direct binding between miR-324-5p with circ_0049447 proven by luciferase reporter assay indicated that circ_0049447 may inhibit GC by sponging certain miRNA.@*CONCLUSION@#Circ_0049447 acts as a tumor suppressor in GC through reducing proliferation, migration, invasion, and EMT, and it is a promising biomarker for diagnosis.

Objective:To understand the status of synthetic drug use, high-risk sexual behavior and associated factors among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Shanghai. Methods:MSM subjects were recruited, by a team of non-governmental organizations (NGO), at MSM places and voluntary counseling and testing clinics from May to December 2018. The subjects completed a self-administered questionnaire survey on social-demographic, ways to make friends, synthetic drug use, high-risk sexual behavior, and HIV/STD testing history. They also received tests of HIV and syphilis. According to the use of synthetic drugs, they were divided into user group and non-user group. Results:A total of 209 subjects were recruited. Among them, 43.1% (90/209) used at least one synthetic drug. 81.3% (170/209) of MSM used internet dating software. The proportion of synthetic drug use was higher among the subjects in 30-34 age group, residence registered in other provinces, with university degree or above, occupation of cadres and staff members, monthly income of more than 10 000 yuan, making friends through gay bars, and acquaintance with male partners. The registered residence in other provinces (OR=3.006) and making friends through gay bars (OR=3.588) were independent factors. The top three synthetic drugs were Rush (90.0%, 81/90), Viagra (8.9%, 8/90) and “capsule 0” (7.8%, 7/90). The proportion of having sex after using synthetic drugs was 89.5% (17/19). The frequency of high-risk sexual behaviors such as oral sex, anal sex without condom and group sex was once a day per person on average. Conclusion:The use of synthetic drugs is prevalent among MSM, and the frequency of high-risk sexual behaviors after use is high. Warning education on the dangers of synthetic drug use and mobilization for HIV testing should be carried out with the help of new media technology. Special attention should be paid to MSM people in high-income occupations and gay bars.

Objective:To determine the prevalence of facility-based HIV testing and its associated factors among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Shanghai. Methods:From June 2018 to December 2020, MSM were recruited by a community organization “Shanghai CSW&MSM Center (SCMC)”. A total of 3 251 MSM were included as follows: being 18 years old and above, being HIV-negative or with unknown HIV status, living in Shanghai, had homosexual behavior in the past year, and completed informed consent. Using a self-designed questionnaire, we performed an online survey powered by www.wjx.cn to collect information on demographics, sexual behavior, and facility-based HIV testing. A total of 3 240 valid questionnaires were collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to determine the factors associated with facility-based HIV testing. Results:A total of 3 240 MSM participated in the study with mean age of (29.7±6.2) years .The prevalence of facility-based HIV testing was 63.2% (2 049/3 240), Multivariate logistic regression showed that the participants with a college degree or above were less likely to have facility-based HIV testing(OR=0.73,P=0.008), compared to those with lower educational background. The proportion of the MSM who sought sexual partners through the internet received facility-based testing was 68.7%. Compared to the participants with the sexual role being 0 (only be penetrated), those being 0.5 (both penetrated and be penetrated) and 1 (only penetrated) were both more likely to have the HIV testing (both P<0.05). Those who used condoms during the last homosexual behavior were more likely to be tested than those who did not (OR=1.39, P=0.001). Those who had been diagnosed with sexually transmitted diseases were more likely to be tested than those who did not (OR=2.05, P<0.001). The participants who had used HIV self-testing kits in the past were more likely to be tested than those who did not (OR=2.31, P<0.001). Conclusion:MSM in Shanghai have lower utilization of facility-based HIV testing, which may be improved by strengthening the advocacy of facility-based HIV testing services through the internet and peer education, and innovating service models.

@#【Objective】To provide a rabbit model for dry eye using a dry environment induced by Controlled Drying System.【Methods】Twenty-four male New Zealand rabbits were used in the experiment. They were randomly divided into control group and dry group,each one with 12 rabbits. The dry group was randomly housed in Controlled Drying System(CDS)for 14 days. The relative humidity,airflow and temperature were kept at(22±4)%,3~4 m/s and(23~25)℃, respectively. The control group were fed in a normal environment where relative humidity,airflow and temperature were kept at 60%~70%,0.2 m/s and(23~25)℃. The Schirmer test,corneal fluorescein staining,conjunctival lissamine green staining were performed during the experimental process on days 0,3,7,and 14. On the last day,the rabbits were euthanized and the eye tissues were made into paraffin-cut sections. After staining,we evaluated the corneal epithelial thickness and goblet cell number in the conjunctiva using light microscopy. MUC5AC in the conjunctival epithelium was detected by immunofluorescence. The apoptosis level changes on the ocular surface were evaluated using Caspase- 3 by immunohistochemistry. 【Results】 Decreased tear production ,increased corneal fluorescein staining and increased conjunctival lissamine green staining were found on days 3,7,and 14 in the dry group compared with the control group(P < 0.001). Corneal epithelial thickness of control group and dry group were (58.0±7.2)μ m and(47.8±7.6)μ m ,which showed corneal epithelial thickness of dry group was decreased(P<0.05). Goblet cells in the conjunctiva of control group and dry group were 15 ± 4 and 10 ± 2,which showed goblet cells of dry group was decreased(P<0.01). The expression of MUC5AC(consistent with goblet cells deficiency) was also reduced. Caspase- 3 was highly expressed on the corneal epithelium in the dry group. IOD/field of control group and dry group were(17±2)% and(20±2)%(P<0.01).【Conclusions】 Dry environment can make rabbits have pathological changes of dry eye on ocular surface epithelium. This dry eye model of rabbit caused by Controlled Drying System would be an effective tool to study the pathogenesis of dry eye.
摘要
Metabolic reprogramming has been identified as a hallmark of cancer. Liver is an essential hub in the body for the metabolism of three major nutrients including glucose, lipids and amino acids. Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) usually presents a variety of changes in characteristic metabolism, such as increased aerobic glycolysis, enhanced de novo lipid synthesis, glutamine depletion, and oxidative metabolism imbalance, which can provide energy and bio-macromolecular raw materials for rapidly growing and proliferating tumor cells. The process of tumor metabolic reprogramming is regulated by multiple factors, such as alterations in metabolic enzyme activity, abnormal gene expression, and signaling pathway disturbance. Advances in high-throughout metabolomics technology have provided a powerful platform for discovering the novel biomarkers and metabolic targets of HCC. Therefore, in-depth study of the metabolic characteristics and regulatory mechanisms of HCC is critical for the development of novel antimetabolites.

BACKGROUND@#Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has been demonstrated as a better source of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) than plasma for brain tumors. However, it is unclear whether whole exome sequencing (WES) is qualified for detection of ctDNA in CSF. The aim of this study was to determine if assessment of ctDNA in CSF by WES is a feasible approach to detect genomic alterations of glioblastoma.@*METHODS@#CSFs of ten glioblastoma patients were collected pre-operatively at the Department of Neurosurgery, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center. ctDNA in CSF and genome DNA in the resected tumor were extracted and subjected to WES. The identified glioblastoma-associated mutations from ctDNA in CSF and genome DNA in the resected tumor were compared.@*RESULTS@#Due to the ctDNA in CSF was unqualified for exome sequencing for one patient, nine patients were included into the final analysis. More glioblastoma-associated mutations tended to be detected in CSF compared with the corresponding tumor tissue samples (3.56 ± 0.75 vs. 2.22 ± 0.32, P = 0.097), while the statistical significance was limited by the small sample size. The average mutation frequencies were similar in CSF and tumor tissue samples (74.1% ± 6.0% vs. 73.8% ± 6.0%, P = 0.924). The R132H mutation of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and the G34V mutation of H3 histone, family 3A (H3F3A) which had been reported in the pathological diagnoses were also detected from ctDNA in CSF by WES. Patients who received temozolomide chemotherapy previously or those whose tumor involved subventricular zone tended to harbor more mutations in their CSF.@*CONCLUSION@#Assessment of ctDNA in CSF by WES is a feasible approach to detect genomic alterations of glioblastoma, which may provide useful information for the decision of treatment strategy.

Objective:To construct a prognosis associated micro RNA(miRNA) prediction model based on bioinformatics analysis and evaluate its application value in pancreatic cancer patients.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 171 pancreatic cancer patients from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) (https: //cancergenome.nih.gov/) between establishment of database and September 2017 were collected. There were 93 males and 78 females, aged from 35 to 88 years, with a median age of 65 years. Of the 171 patients, 64 had complete clinicopathological data. Patients were allocated into training dataset consisting of 123 patients and validation dataset consisting of 48 patients using the random sampling method, with a ratio of 7∶3. The training dataset was used to construct a prediction model, and the validation dataset was used to evaluate performance of the prediction model. Nine pairs of miRNA sequencing data (GSE41372) of pancreatic cancer and adjacent tissues were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database. The candidate miRNAs were selected from differentially expressed miRNAs in pancreatic cancer and adjacent tissues for LASSO-COX regression analysis based on the patients of training dataset. A prognosis associated miRNA prediction model was constructed upon survival associated miRNAs which were selected from candidate differentially expressed miRNAs. The performance of prognosis associated miRNA prediction model was validated in training dataset and validation dataset, the accuracy of model was evaluated using the area under curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curves and the efficiency was evaluated using the consistency index (C-index). Observation indicarors: (1) survival of patients; (2) screening results of differentially expressed miRNAs; (3) construction of prognosis associated miRNA model; (4) validation of prognosis associated miRNA model; (5) comparison of clinicopathological factors in pancreatic cancer patients; (6) analysis of factors for prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients; (7) comparison of prediction performance between prognosis associated miRNA model and the eighth edition TNM staging. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, comparison between groups was analyzed by the student- t test, and comparison between multiple groups was analyzed by the AVONA. Measurement data with skewed data were represented as M (range), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Ordinal data were analyzed using the rank sum test. Correlation analysis was conducted based on count data to mine the correlation between prognosis associated miRNA model and clinicopathological factors. COX univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were applied to evaluate correlation with the results described as hazard ratio ( HR) and 95% confidence interval ( CI). HR<1 indicated the factor as a protective factor, HR>1 indicated the factor as a risk factor, and HR equal to 1 indicated no influence on survival. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curve and calculate survival rates, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Survival of patients: 123 patients in the training dataset were followed up for 31-2 141 days, with a median follow-up time of 449 days. The 3- and 5-year survival rates were 16.67% and 8.06%. Forty-eight patients in the validation dataset were followed up for 41-2 182 days, with a median follow-up time of 457 days. The 3- and 5-year survival rates were 15.63% and 9.68%. There was no significant difference in the 3- or 5-year survival rates between the two groups ( χ2=0.017, 0.068, P>0.05). (2) Screening results of differentially expressed miRNAs. Results of bioinformatics analysis showed that 102 candidate differentially expressed miRNAs were selected, of which 63 were up-regulated in tumor tissues while 39 were down-regulated. (3) Construction of prognosis associated miRNA model: of the 102 candidate differentially expressed miRNAs, 5 survival associated miRNAs were selected, including miR-21, miR-125a-5p, miR-744, miR-374b, miR-664. The differential expression patterns of pancreatic cancer to adjacent tissues were up-regulation, up-regulation, down-regulation, up-regulation, and down-regulation, respectively, with the fold change of 4.00, 3.43, 3.85, 2.62, and 2.35. A prognostic expression equation constructed based on 5 survival associated miRNAs = 0.454×miR-21 expression level-0.492×miR-125a-5p expression level-0.49×miR-744 expression level-0.419×miR-374b expression level-0.036×miR-664 expression level. (4) Validation of prognosis associated miRNA model: The C-index of prognosis associated miRNA model was 0.643 and 0.642 for the training dataset and validation dataset, respectively. (5) Comparison of clinicopathological factors in pancreatic cancer patients: results of COX analysis showed that the prognosis associated miRNA model was highly related with pathological T stage and location of pancreatic cancer ( Z=45.481, χ2=10.176, P<0.05). (6) Analysis of factors for prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients: results of univariate analysis showed that pathological N stage, radiotherapy, molecular targeted therapy, score of prognosis associated miRNA model were related factors for prognosis pf pancreatic cancer patients ( HR=2.471, 0.290, 0.172, 2.001, 95% CI: 1.012-6.032, 0.101-0.833, 0.082-0.364, 1.371-2.922, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that molecular targeted therapy was an independent protective factor for prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients ( HR=0.261, 95% CI: 0.116-0.588, P<0.05) and score of prognosis associated miRNA model≥1.16 was an independent risk factor for prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients ( HR=1.608, 95% CI: 1.091-2.369, P<0.05). (7) Comparison of prediction performance between prognosis associated miRNA model and the eighth edition TNM staging: in the training dataset, there was a significant difference in the prediction probability for 3- and 5-year survival of pancreatic cancer patients between prognosis associated miRNA model and the eighth edition TNM staging ( Z=-1.671, -1.867, P<0.05). The AUC of the prognosis associated miRNA model and the eight edition TNM staging for 3- and 5-year survival prediction was 0.797, 0.935 and 0.737 , 0.703, with the 95% CI of 0.622-0.972, 0.828-1.042 and 0.571-0.904 , 0.456-0.951. The C-index was 0.643 and 0.534. In the validation dataset, there was a significant difference in the prediction probability for 3- and 5-year survival of pancreatic cancer patients between prognosis associated miRNA model and the eighth edition TNM staging ( Z=-1.729, -1.923, P<0.05). The AUC of the prognosis associated miRNA model and the eight edition TNM staging was 0.750, 0.873 and 0.721 , 0.703, with the 95% CI of 0.553-0.948, 0.720-1.025 and 0.553-0.889, 0.456-0.950, respectively. The C-index was 0.642 and 0.544. Conclusions:A prognosis associated miRNA prediction model can be constructed based on 5 survival associated miRNAs in pancreatic cancer patients, as a complementation to current TNM staging and other clinicopathological parameters, which provides individual and accurate prediction of survival for reference in the clinical treatment.

Objective To understand the prevalence rates of HIV-syphilis and HIV-herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) co-infections and related factors among men having sex with men (MSM)who had visited the voluntary HIV counseling and testing (VCT) clinics in Shanghai,China.Methods 756 eligible MSM who attended the VCT clinics of Shanghai Municipality and Putuo district during March to August,2015 were recruited to participate in a cross-sectional survey with questionnaire interview and blood testing for HIV,syphilis and HSV-2.Results A total of 732 participants completed a valid questionnaire survey.The prevalence rates were 3.3% (24/732) for HIV/Syphilis co-infection,1.9% (14/732) for HIV/HSV-2 co-infection,and 0.7% (5/732) for HIWSyphilis/HSV-2 co-infection,respectively.HIV prevalence appeared significantly higher among syphilis-infected participants (45.3%,24/53) than those without Syphilis (7.2%,61/679) (x2=63.11,P<0.001),and was also significantly higher among HSV-2 infected participants (34.1%,14/41) than those without the HSV-2 infection (10.3 %,71/691) (x2 =21.49,P < 0.001).Results from the Multivariate regression analysis indicated that participants who were migrants (0R=3.50,95%CI:1.01-12.17),having had middle school or lower levels of education (OR=4.46,95%CI:1.54-12.87) or ever used illicit drugs (OR=4.25,95% CI:1.67-10.82,P=0.002) were under possible risks on HIV and Syphilis co-infection.Those participants who had high middle school or lower levels of education (OR=6.87,95%CI:1.86-25.42;OR=9.82,95%CI:2.25-42.85) were under risk on HIV and HSV-2 co-infection.Conclusion HIV/Syphilis and HIV/HSV-2 co-infection were seen among MSM who attended the VCT clinics in Shanghai that called for special attention,especially on migrants,those with low education or illicit drug users.
