RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of multiparametric cardiac magnetic resonance(CMR)or detecting the occurrence of acute rejection(AR)after heart transplantation(HT).Methods:From 2019 to 2021, 44 HT recipients are prospectively recruited from Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital.Another 51 healthy volunteers are recruited from a local community as healthy controls.CMR studies are performed for obtaining baseline parameters.According to the clinicopathological diagnostic criteria of AR by the consensus of International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation, 81 CMR studies of 44 HT recipients are further divided into two groups of AR (18 cases)and non-AR(71 cases). CMR parameters includ global ventricular structure/function, T2, T1, extracellular volume(ECV)and late gadolinium enhancement(LGE). A combined model is established by binary Logistic regression and receiver operator characteristic curve(ROC)constructed.Results:The age range is(41.8±16.8)years in 44 HT recipients and(41.8±9.7)years in 51 healthy controls.T1 mapping indicated that myocardial global ECV of left ventricle is significantly higher in AR patients than non-AR controls(32.4%±6.0% vs 28.5%±2.4%; P<0.001 9). Global native T1 is higher in AR group than that in non-AR group(49.8±3.1 vs 47.5±2.8 ms, P=0.009)and the difference is statistically significant.The cutoff value of global ECV is 30.62% with a sensitivity of 61% and a specificity of 86% for detecting AR.And T2 mapping reveale that T2 value of global left ventricle is significantly higher in AR group than that in non-AR group(49.8±3.1 vs 47.5±2.8 ms, P=0.009). LGE extent is significantly higher in AR group than those in non-AR group( P=0.004). Through including global native T1 and ECV into a logistic regression model, multiparametric CMR can yield an area under curve(AUC)of 0.794.It hints at the potential of CMR for detecting AR. Conclusions:Multiparametric cardiac magnetic resonance offers an excellent predictive capacity for a noninvasive detection of AR.
RESUMEN
The transplantation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) can promote hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) nerve repair, but finding suitable seed cells to optimize transplantation and improve treatment efficiency is an urgent problem to be solved. In this study, we induced hUC-MSCs into dedifferentiated hUC-MSCs (De-hUC-MSCs), and the morphology, stem cell surface markers, proliferation and tri-directional differentiation ability of the De-hUC-MSCs and hUC-MSCs were detected. A whole-gene chip was utilized for genome cluster, gene ontology and KEGG pathway analyses of differentially expressed genes. De-hUC-MSCs were transplanted into HIBD rats, and behavioral experiments and immunofluorescence assays were used to assess the therapeutic effect. A lentivirus vector for human stromal cell-derived factor-1 (hSDF-1α) was constructed, and the role of hSDF-1α in the neuroprotective effect and mechanism of De-hUC-MSCs was verified. De-hUC-MSCs displayed similar cell morphology, stem cell surface marker expression, cell proliferation and even three-dimensional differentiation ability as hUC-MSCs but exhibited greater treatment potential in vivo. The reprogramming mechanism of hSDF-1α participated in the dedifferentiation process. By successfully constructing a stable hSDF-1α cell line, we found that De-hUC-MSCs might participate in nerve repair through the hSDF-1α/CXCR4/PI3K/Akt pathway. De-hUC-MSCs reprogramming of endogenous hSDF-1α expression may mediate the hSDF-1α/CXCR4/PI3K/Akt pathway involved in nerve repair in HIBD rats.
RESUMEN
This study aimed to obtain the first national estimate of the prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in Chinese children. We targeted the population of 6 to 12-year-old children for this prevalence study by multistage convenient cluster sampling. The Modified Chinese Autism Spectrum Rating Scale was used for the screening process. Of the target population of 142,086 children, 88.5% (n = 125,806) participated in the study. A total of 363 children were confirmed as having ASD. The observed ASD prevalence rate was 0.29% (95% CI: 0.26%-0.32%) for the overall population. After adjustment for response rates, the estimated number of ASD cases was 867 in the target population sample, thereby achieving an estimated prevalence of 0.70% (95% CI: 0.64%-0.74%). The prevalence was significantly higher in boys than in girls (0.95%; 95% CI: 0.87%-1.02% versus 0.30%; 95% CI: 0.26%-0.34%; P < 0.001). Of the 363 confirmed ASD cases, 43.3% were newly diagnosed, and most of those (90.4%) were attending regular schools, and 68.8% of the children with ASD had at least one neuropsychiatric comorbidity. Our findings provide reliable data on the estimated ASD prevalence and comorbidities in Chinese children.

RESUMEN
Objective To analyze the main characteristics of air pollution in Nanchang City, and discuss the correlation between air pollution exposure (especially PM2.5) and the development of pneumonia related intensive care unit (ICU) patients and their lag effect.Methods 2454 patients who lived in Nanchang City admitted to ICU of Jiangxi Provincial People's Hospital from January 1st, 2014 to December 31st, 2016 were enrolled. According to the diagnosis, the patients were divided into pneumonia group (156 cases) and non-pneumonia group (2298 cases). The general clinical characteristics of patients and air pollution concentration in Nanchang in the year between 2014-2016 were collected. Multiple regression model was used to analyze the influence of meteorological factors on the condition of ICU patients associated with pneumonia. Using odds ratio (OR), the correlation intensity of air pollution exposure and pneumonia related ICU patients' development was reflected, and the confidence level of association intensity was reflected by the 95％ confidence interval (95％CI). The distribution lag nonlinear model (DLNM) was established to evaluate the effect of air mass parameters on the time lag effect.Results The results of air pollution analysis in Nanchang City in the year between 2014-2016 showed that the annual average concentration of carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) was low and maintained at the same level in the year between 2014-2016. The annual average concentration of CO and NO2 increased in the year between 2014-2016, but the average annual concentration of SO2 decreased rapidly in the year between 2014-2016, and the average annual concentration of PM2.5 tended to slow down after the year between 2014-2016. The annual average concentration of PM10 decreased in the year between 2014-2016, but continued to rise in the year between 2014-2016. The annual mean concentration of O3 showed a trend of continuous increase from the year between 2014-2016. The age of pneumonia group was generally higher than that of non-pneumonia group, most of them were male, and had higher expected mortality and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ) score. The average air temperature in the pneumonia group was lower than that in the non-pneumonia group on the day of entering the group, and the air pollutants such as PM2.5 and PM10 were significantly higher than those in the non-pneumonia group. The analysis of multiple regression models showed that PM2.5 and air temperature were significantly related to patients with ICU pneumonia on the day of entry (PM2.5:OR = 1.02, 95％CI =1.00-1.03,P < 0.05; air temperature:OR = 0.96, 95％CI = 0.92-0.98,P < 0.05), and the effect of PM2.5 on patients with ICU pneumonia could last for at least 5 days (OR = 1.04, 95％CI = 1.00-1.09,P < 0.05), and the effect disappeared until the 7th day. According to the analysis of the influence of different concentrations of PM2.5 on ICU pneumonia patients, when the PM2.5 concentration reached 200μg/m3, its effect on ICU pneumonia patients would last for 5 days (OR = 1.45, 95％CI = 1.07-1.76,P < 0.01).Conclusion PM2.5 and air temperature are significantly related to the condition of ICU patients with pneumonia, and the influence of high concentration of PM2.5 on ICU patients with pneumonia has a lag effect.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the influence of gestational vitamin A(VA) deficiency on lipid synthesis in offspring liver tissue by using the rat model of gestational vitamin A deficiency.Methods The rat model of gestational VA deficiency was established and divided into the normal AV,VA deficiency and VA deficiency and supplement (VAD) groups.The offspring blood lipid levels were detected.The mRNA expression changes of lipid synthesis molecule ACC1,FAS and SREBP1 in liver were detected;the lipid droplet deposition situation after HE staining in offspring liver tissue section was observed.Results The HDL-C level of the VAD group was significantly lower than that of the VA normal group(VAN group and VAS group,P＜0.05),and the difference between the VAN group and VAS group had no statistical difference(P＞0.05).The TG level had statistically significant difference among the three groups(P＜0.05).The ACC1,FAS and SREBP1 mRNA expression levels in the VAD group were significantly increased.The liver in the VAD group appeared more lipid droplet deposit with partial lipid droplet vacuoles in cytoplasm;while the liver cells in the VAS and VAN groups showed the regular arrangement without obvious lipid droplet deposit.Conclusion Gestational VA deficiency may induce the abnormal activation of liver lipid synthesis pathway in rat offspring and causes lipid metabolic disturbance.
RESUMEN
Objective@#To investigate the relationship between gastrointestinal disorders (GID) and core symptoms or behavioral problems among the children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) .@*Method@#Totally 328 children with ASD and 202 normal controls were enrolled in this cross-sectional study from August 2013 to October 2016. The information about the gastrointestinal disorders, behavioral and emotional problems was collected by using questionnaires. Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS), Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC) were used to assess the core symptoms of the children with ASD. Neurodevelopmental status was evaluated with Gesell Developmental Scale (GDS). These variables were analyzed by using student's t-test and chi-square test.@*Result@#The prevalence of GID was significantly higher in the children with ASD than in the normally developing children (49.4% (162/328) vs.25.7% (52/202), χ2=29.039, P=0.000), especially the symptoms of constipation (33.2% (109/328) vs. 13.9% (28/202)), diarrhea (9.5%(31/328) vs. 1.5% (3/202)), nausea and vomiting (9.5% (31/328) vs. 3.5% (7/202)), and foul defecation (16.5% (54/328) vs. 5.0% (10/202)) (all P<0.05). Among the ASD children, the prevalence of GID was similar between male and female (46.7% (133/285) vs. 46.5%(20/43), χ2=0.006, P=0.938), as well as among all age groups (χ2=1.907, P=0.862). There was no significant difference in scores of GDS in the ASD children with or without GID (all P>0.05). Compared with ASD children without GID (n=166), the ASD children with GID (n=162) got higher scores in the "Body and Object Use" of ABC scale ( (16.4±9.3) vs. (12.3±6.7) scores, t=2.258, P=0.028), and had more emotional problems (63.6% (103/162) vs. 49.4% (82/166), χ2=6.707, P=0.010). Moreover, the score of behavior problems questionnaire was higher in the ASD children with GID ( (35.3±16.8) vs. (16.1±13.6) scores, t=5.748, P=0.000).@*Conclusion@#Children with ASD have higher risk of GID than the normal developing children. While the stereotyped behaviors, problem behaviors and emotional problems are severer in the ASD children with GID. Hence, it is important to provide comprehensive treatment and management for these groups of children.
RESUMEN
This study aims to construct the recombinant lentivirus vector containing specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting rat CREB binding protein(CBP)gene and to identify its function of inhibiting the expressions of acetylated histone in primarily cultured hippocampal neurons. Firstly, we constructed four kinds of recombinant lentivirus siCBP. And then we used them to infect the primarily cultured hippocampal neurons, and performed real-time PCR, western blot respectively to detect the expressions of CBP. Afterwards, the most effective lentivirus siCBP was used to infect the primarily cultured hippocampal neurons, and then the HAT activity and protein expressions of acetylated histone Ac-H3, Ac-H4 of the neurons were examined. By using PCR, endonuclease cutting and gene sequencing, we confirmed that the target genes were correctly cloned in lentivirus vector. Besides, CBP mRNA and protein expressions in neurons were found to be with varying degrees of decreases after infections of the four kinds of lentivirus siCBP. Furthermore, the representative and most effective lentivirus GR806 could effectively inhibit the HAT activity and the protein expressions of Ac-H3, Ac-H4 in neurons. It provides the experimental basis for the subsequent application of siCBP to clarify the effects and corresponding molecular mechanism of the CBP-dependent histone acetylation on learning and memory function in hippocampus.

Objectives To compare the 2006 World Health Organization (WHO) growth standards and the 2005 China national growth standards for identification of the wasting, stunting, low weight and overweight in infants. Methods Data were drawn from“Infants’feeding and growth”project. Weight-for-length, weight-for-age and length-for-age were derived in z-scores using the two growth references. Stunting was defined as having a length-for-age Z-score less than-2. Low weight was defined as having a weight-for-age Z-score less than-2. Wasting was defined as having a weight-for-length Z-score less than-2. Overweight was defined as having a weight-for-length Z-score more than+2. Results Data of a total of 3909 records from 959 health children aged from 2 to 12 months from June 2008 to May 2009 were analyzed. Of them, 53.88%(2106/3909)were from male and 46.12%(1803/3909)were from female. There was no difference in wasting rate and stunting rate between using two growth references. Fewer infants were identified as low weight by using WHO growth standard than using China growth stan-dard. The results were 0.57%at 0-3 months (0.85%vs.1.42), P>0.05, 0.72%at 4-6 months (0.39%vs. 1.11%) and 0.97%at 7-9 months (0.79% vs.1.76%), P0.05). Con-clusion Some differences were found in low weight and overweight rate by using two growth standards. Infant low weight rate was lower and overweight rate was higher by using WHO growth standard than that using China growth standard.

RESUMEN
To construct the recombinant adenovirus vector expressing specific siRNA for rat retinoic acid receptor-beta (RARbeta) gene, and to detect its effect on RARbeta expression and neuronal differentiation of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) treated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). First, we designed four pairs of siRNA sequence for rat RARbeta gene and annealed complementary oligonucleotides in vitro, then cloned double-stranded DNA in pSES-HUS vector containing U6/H1 double-promoter and recombinated with the backbone vector to construct pAd-siRARbeta plasmid. We infected MSCs by using adenovirus Ad-siRARbeta which was packaged in HEK293 cell line, then performed Real-time, Western blotting and immunoflourencence to detect the expression of RARbeta. We used combination of ATRA and MNM to induce MSCs into neural-like cells, then performed Real-time PCR and immunoflourencence to detect neuronal specific markers of induced neural cells. By using PCR, endonuclease cutting and gene sequencing, we confirmed that the target genes were correctly cloned in adenovirus vector. We could observe more than 60% RFP-positive MSCs at 24 h after adenovirus infection. The expression of RARbeta was significantly increased to 16.5 +/- 2.34 fold in ATRA treated MSCs (P < 0.05) and located in nucleus. Three of four pairs siRNA could effectively inhibit the expression of RARbeta with inhibition efficacy of (66.26 +/- 9.12)%, (48.70 +/- 5.78)%, (64.09 +/- 0.53)% (P < 0.05), especially siRNA-pool group with inhibition efficacy of (78.09 +/- 4.24)% (P < 0.01). Combination of ATRA and MNM induced MSCs into neural-like cells which expressed neuronal specific markers, Nestin, NSE, MAP-2, and Tau. Immunoflourencence result showed that about 50-88 present of cells were positive for Nestin, NSE, Tjul, however, adenovirus medicated expression of siRARbeta could effectively inhibit the expression level of neural specific proteins and the ratio of positive stained cells (P < 0.05). Therefore, we successfully constructed the recombinant adenovirus vector containing siRNA for rat RARP gene, adenovirus could effectively infect MSCs and inhibit the expression of induced RARbeta in ATRA treated MSCs, then inhibit neuronal differentiation of MSCs.

RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in children. The damage to membrane phospholipids leads to the collapse of the bronchial alveolar epithelial barrier during acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Phospholipase A2 (PLA2), a key enzyme in the hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids, plays an important traumatic role in pulmonary inflammation, and Clara cell secretory protein (CCSP) is an endogenous inhibitor of PLA2. Our previous study showed that polydatin (PD), a monocrystalline extracted from a traditional Chinese medicinal herb (Polygonum cuspidatum Sieb, et Zucc), reduced PLA2 activity and sPLA2-IIA mRNA expression and mitigated LPS-induced lung injury. However, the potential mechanism for these effects has not been well defined. We have continued to investigate the effect of PD on LPS-induced expression of CCSP mRNA and protein in vivo and in vitro. RESULTS: Our results suggested that the CCSP mRNA level was consistent with its protein expression. CCSP expression was decreased in lung after LPS challenge. In contrast, PD markedly increased CCSP expression in a concentration-dependent manner. In particular, CCSP expression in PD-pretreated rat lung was higher than in rats receiving only PD treatment. CONCLUSION: These results indicated that up-regulation of CCSP expression causing inhibition of PLA2 activation may be one of the crucial protective mechanisms of PD in LPS-induced lung injury.

RESUMEN
Objective To observe the effects of LPS and PMA on proliferation of human len epithelial( HLE )cells and expression of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) in HLE cells.Methods The expressions of EGFR protein of HLE cells from felus,adult lens age-related cataract and cultured HLE cells were detected by immunohistochemical staining.The expression of EGFR mRNA was detected by RT-PCR.The effects of LPS (0.5,1.0,2.0 mg?L-1 ) and PMA(25,50,100 nmol?L-1 )on proliferation of HLE cells were detected by MTT colorimetry method,and the EGFR mRNA expression in HLE cells was determined by RT-PCR. Results The expressions of EGFR protein and mRNA were positive in HLE cells from felus,adult lens age-related cataract and cultured HLE cells.The proliferation rates of HLE cells treated with 0.5,1.0,2.0 mg?L-1 LPS were (3.21?0.42)%,(12.25?1.34)% and (36.67?3.65)%,respectively.The proliferation rate of HLE cells in 2.0 mg?L-1 LPS group was higher than those in 0.5 and 1.0 mg?L-1 LPS groups(F=7.709,P0.05).PMA(25,50,100 nmol?L-1 )could not effect the expression of EGFR mRNA in HLE cells .Conclusion Inflammation stimulant factor such as LPS can promote the proliferation of HLE cells by increasing the expression of EGFR and result in occurrence of posterior capsular opacifition(PCO).
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: At present, there are fewer studies on the monitoring of nutritional status of the residents living in the draw-down area of ThreeGorge reservoir.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the nutritional status and dietary pattern of the residents before the formation of the draw-down area of Three-Gorge reservoir, so as to provide basic data for the continuous dynamic surveillance of food and nutrition.DESIGN: A cross-sectional study.SETTING: Department of Nutrition and Food Hygiene, School of Public Health, Chongqing University of Medical Sciences.PARTICIPANTS: The investigation was carried out between February and March 2004 in the draw-down area of Three-Gorge reservoir with denser population, larger area and greater influence, such as Kaixian and Yunyang counties, etc. The first surveillance of food nutritional status of the residents in the draw-down area was performed in 52 urban families and 50 rural families of Kaixian county, one family member was voluntarily selected from each family, whose main duty was to buy vegetables and food. Totally 102 subjects (42 males and 60 females) were investigated in this study. At the same time, the data of physical examination and detection of blood Hb in children from Kaixian county between May 1999 and November 2003 were analyzed.METHODS: The subjects were investigated in their house with questionnaires. Their general condition of family, food consumption and dietary nutrition were surveyed and analyzed. Nutrients intake was assessed by 24-hour recall, combined with food consuming frequency questionnaire, the Engel index, which was an important index for the level of family consumption, was detected in both rural and urban residents.
