RESUMEN
Currently, little is available on how mercury (Hg) methylation couples with soil organic matter decomposition in degraded permafrost in high northern latitudes, where the climate is becoming warmer rapidly. Here, we revealed the complex interactions between soil organic matter (SOM) mineralization, dissolved organic matter (DOM) and methylmercury (MeHg) production based on an 87-day anoxic warming incubation experiment. Results supported remarkably promotion effects of warming on MeHg production, by 130%-205% on average. Total mercury (THg) loss under warming treatment depended on marsh types but showed an increasing trend on the whole. Warming yielded higher proportions of MeHg to THg (%MeHg), increased by 123%-569%. As expected, greenhouse gas emission was significantly enhanced by warming. Warming also strengthened fluorescence intensities of fulvic-like and protein-like DOM, with contributions to total fluorescence intensities of 49%-92% and 8%-51%, respectively. DOM and its spectral features explained 60% variation of MeHg, and the explanation increased to 82% in conjunction with greenhouse gas emissions. The structural equation model implied that warming, greenhouse gas emission, and humification of DOM had positive effects on Hg methylation potential, while microbial-derived DOM showed negative effects on MeHg. These results showed that accelerated Hg loss and increased methylation covaried with greenhouse gas emission and DOM formation under warming conditions in permafrost marsh.

Objective:To investigate the effect of curriculum on the awareness and attitude on the rural-oriented medical education among medical students.Methods:The grade 2019 and 2020 medical students of rural-oriented program in Hebei Medical University were enrolled. Two different curricula were adopted in the first year, for students of grade 2020 more courses in general medicine, humanities and social sciences were added, and not for those of grade 2019. A questionnaire survey was conducted at the end of their first academic year. The questionnaire contained the basic information of students, opinions and satisfaction with curriculum design, understanding of policies about rural-oriented medical education, and the sense of career identity; each item in the questionnaire was scored by 5-point Likert scale.Results:A total of 173 questionnaires were distributed and 161 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a recovery rate of 93.1%; there were 55 responders (15 males and 40 females) from grade 2019, and 106 from grade 2020 (52 males and 54 females). The main reasons for choosing rural-oriented program were job security (60.0% (33/55) in 2019 and 58.5% (62/106) in 2020), the main way to know the relevant policies of the program was through the internet (54.5% (30/55) in 2019 and 66.0% (70/106) in 2020); 34.5% (19/55) of grade 2019 students were willing to continue working in rural areas after contracted period of service, while the percentage was 47.2% (50/106) for grade 2020. Students in grade 2020 had a higher satisfaction scores on the content and quality of teaching courses, as well as teaching satisfaction compared to those in grade 2019( t=2.34 and 3.00, P<0.05). The awareness of relevant policies before enrollment and policies related to contract violations among grade 2020 students was higher than that of grade 2019( t=2.70 and 5.08, P<0.05); the scores of all questions about general practice answered by students in grade 2020 were higher than those in grade 2019( t=3.96, 3.37, 3.55, 2.85, 3.84, 5.26 and 5.10,all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the scores of cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and adaptive aspects of career identity between students of two grades( t=0.70, 0.78, 0.74 and 1.37,all P>0.05). Conclusions:The reformed curriculum has positive effect on the satisfaction and awareness of rural-oriented medical education program and relevant policies among medical students in the program; however, it has less effect on the sense of career identity and willingness to continue to work in rural areas after the contracted period of serve.

RESUMEN
At present, the extension tube of the ventilator, a long corrugated tube used in clinical practice, needs to be disconnected from the endotracheal tube when performing open sputum suction. Under positive pressure, the condensed water containing pathogenic microorganisms in the ventilator will be splashed. Some will form aerosol suspended in the air, pollute the air, increase the risk of cross-infection and operator pollution, while the ventilator will emit a corresponding alarm sound, resulting in noise pollution. Based on the above factors, a ventilator pipeline extension tube was designed by the medical staff of department of critical care medicine of the Eighth Medical Center of People's Liberation Army General Hospital and department of critical care medicine of Beijing Friendship Hospital of Capital Medical University, and was obtained the National Utility Model Patent of China (ZL 2020 2 1476518.X). The device consists of the main pipe, first pipe sleeve, second pipe sleeve, valve body, joystick, axial sleeve, etc., which can not only effectively avoid air pollution and reduce the risk of cross-infection, but also reduce noise pollution and the negative impact of loud noise on patients and medical staff.
RESUMEN
The miR-34 family plays an important role in gastric cancer, and the inactivation or reduced expression of the miR-34 family is detected in gastric cancer cell lines and gastric cancer tissues compared with normal gastric mucosa tissues, indicating it is associated with the occurrence and development of gastric cancer. Studies have shown that miR-34 plays a key role in inhibiting gastric cancer progression by regulating IGF2BP3, survivin, Bcl-2 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition-related pathway, indicating that miR-34 is an important target for gastric cancer treatment. In terms of clinical treatment, miR-34 has not only been proved to have radiochemotherapy sensitization, but also achieved good curative effect in tumor clinical trials. With the emergence of miR-34 vectors targeting gastric cancer, it is possible to use it for gastric cancer treatment. Deep understanding of the molecular basis and clinical efficacy of miR-34 for gastric cancer treatment can help to evaluate the potential of the miR-34 family as a new therapeutic target for gastric cancer.
RESUMEN
Ventilators are currently the most commonly used auxiliary mechanical ventilation equipment in clinical practice, and play an important role in the treatment of hypoxemia. Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a special type of pulmonary parenchymal inflammation of nosocomial infection in patients with mechanical ventilation, which leads the increase of mortality and affects the prognosis of patients. The non-standard management of ventilator pipeline joints and the aerosol formed by bacterial condensate splashed from ventilator pipeline pollute the air, resulting in cross infection, which are the important reasons for VAP. The existing ventilator pipeline joint cap can achieve the effect of preventing pollution, but the clinical application compliance is not high. Based on the above factors, teachers, students and medical staff of the School of Public Health and Management, Guangxi University of Chinese Medicine and other units have designed a device for preventing pollution and air pollution of the ventilator pipeline joint, and obtained the national utility model patent of China (ZL 2020 2 1361981.X). The device is composed of a model lung, a mask body, a suspension part and a beam mouth part, etc. The use method is simple, and can be applied to the pollution avoidance of invasive ventilator and non-invasive ventilator pipeline joints, to reduce the occurrence of VAP in patients and the occupational exposure of medical staff.
RESUMEN
Objective:To identify the risk factors of cognitive dysfunction in patients with atrial fibrillation and to establish a risk prediction model.Methods:The convenience sampling method was used to evaluate 260 patients with atrial fibrillation who were hospitalized in the Department of Cardiology of the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from January to December 2020. The cognitive function of the patients was evaluated with the Montreal Cognitive Function Assessment Scale (MoCA). Univariate analysis was used to screen the independent variables that had influence on the occurrence of cognitive dysfunction, and the statistically significant variables were included in the multivariate Logistic regression model. According to the regression coefficients of statistically significant variables, a line map was drawn to construct the risk prediction model of cognitive dysfunction in patients with atrial fibrillation.Results:There were 209 cases with cognitive impairment and 51 cases without cognitive impairment. Univariate analysis showed that sex, age, smoking history, drinking history, education level, free thyroxine, hemoglobin, D-dimer and BMI ( χ2 values were 4.08-18.83, t values were -6.04-2.94, Z=-2.76) were significantly different between the patients with or without cognitive dysfunction. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR values were 1.13), education level ( OR=0.01-0.05), quit smoking history ( OR=0.36), drinking history ( OR=0.35) and free thyroxine( OR=1.14) had significantly statistical significance ( P<0.05). The area under ROC curve (AUC) = 0.878 and AUC>0.8, this model had good clinical prediction ability. Conclusions:The construction of cognitive dysfunction risk prediction model for patients with atrial fibrillation can prevent or intervene high risk factors in advance, facilitate clinical use, and provide data support for the improvement of cognitive function in patients with atrial fibrillation.

RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effects of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression on the biological behaviors of gastric cancer cell line MKN45.Methods:The PD-L1 gene of gastric cancer cell line MKN45 was silenced by RNA interference technique. MKN45 cells were divided into blank control group, si-NC group (transfected with siRNA-NC) and si-PD-L1 group (transfected with siRNA-PD-L1). Quantitative real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA expressions of PD-L1 and epithelial-mesenchymal transformation (EMT)-related proteins E-cadherin, Vimentin and Snail in MKN45 cells, and Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of PD-L1 protein in MKN45 cells of each group. Transwell migration test, Transwell invasion test and MTT test were used to detect the migration, invasion and adhesion abilities of MKN45 cells.Results:The relative expression levels of PD-L1 mRNA in the blank control group, si-NC group and si-PD-L1 group were 1.002±0.092, 1.005±0.121 and 0.237±0.017, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=75.61, P<0.001). The protein expression levels of PD-L1 in the three groups were 0.944±0.028, 1.008±0.088 and 0.269±0.015, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=172.99, P<0.001). The mRNA and protein expression levels of PD-L1 in the si-PD-L1 group were lower than those in the other two groups (all P<0.001), but there were no statistically significant differences between the blank control group and si-NC group (all P>0.05). The cell migration rates of the blank control group, si-NC group and si-PD-L1 group were (1.000±0.020)%, (1.012±0.084)% and (0.488±0.050)%, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=80.73, P<0.001). The cell invasion rates of the three groups were (0.929±0.087)%, (0.924±0.208)% and (0.300±0.100)%, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=19.37, P<0.001), and the cell adhesion rates of the three groups were (100.000±5.407)%, (99.280±4.845)% and (59.723±2.674)%, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=79.87, P<0.001). Compared with the blank control group and si-NC group, the migration, invasion and adhesion abilities of MKN45 cells in the si-PD-L1 group decreased significantly (all P<0.001). The expression levels of E-cadherin mRNA of the three groups were 1.000±0.023, 0.981±0.051, 3.618±0.201, the expression levels of Vimentin mRNA were 1.000±0.043, 1.108±0.150, 0.328±0.011, the expression levels of Snail mRNA were 1.061±0.103, 1.090±0.110, 0.304±0.043, respectively, with statistically significant differences ( F=477.17, P<0.001; F=65.97, P<0.001; F=72.70, P<0.001). Compared with the blank control group and si-NC group, the mRNA expression levels of Vimentin and Snail of MKN45 cells in the si-PD-L1 group decreased, while the expression level of E-cadherin mRNA increased, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.001). Conclusion:Silencing the expression of PD-L1 can reduce the migration, invasion and adhesion abilities of MKN45 cells, and the mechanism may be related to the effect of PD-L1 on the EMT pathway of gastric cancer.

Forty-three patients with common-type COVID-19 (28 males, 15 females, 43±14 years old) and 50 patients with MP (19 males, 31 females, 37±14 years old) were enrolled as COVID-19 group and MP group, respectively. The clinical manifestations, laboratory results and chest CT findings of these two groups were analyzed and compared.Results:(1) Clinical manifestations: there were more patients with muscle ache and asthenia in COVID-19 group than in MP group (χ 2=5.110, 4.834, P<0.05). No significant difference was found in fever and cough between two groups (χ 2=0.378, 0.097, P>0.05). (2) Laboratory examination: the procalcitonin level of cases in COVID-19 group was significantly lower than that in MP group (χ 2=12.263, P=0.001). No significant difference was found in leukocyte count, lymphocyte count, C-reactive protein level and erythrocyte sedimentation rate ( Z=-1.117, χ 2=2.410, 0.787, 0.800, all P>0.05) between two groups. (3) Chest CT findings bilateral lung involvement was found more in COVID-19 group than in MP group (χ 2=30.012, P<0.001); while the one lobe of ipilateral lung involvement was less in COVID-19 group than in MP group (χ 2=19.927, P<0.001); there was no significant difference in multiple lobes of ipilateral lung involvment between the two groups (χ 2=1.366, P>0.05). Ground glass, paving stone sign and air bronchus sign were found significantly more in COVID-19 group than in MP group (χ 2=30.171, 19.119, 9.790, all P<0.05); while the pulmonary consolidation, central lobular nodule and centripetal thickening of bronchus wall were found significantly less in COVID-19 group than in MP group (χ 2=25.450, 33.532, 48.553, all P<0.001). Conclusions:The clinical manifestations and laboratory examination have limited value in the differential diagnosis of common-type COVID-19 and MP, while chest CT imaging might be more valuable in the early differential diagnosis of these two diseases.

Cryptotanshinone (CPT) is a natural compound isolated from traditional Chinese medicine Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge. In the present study, the regulatory effect and potential mechanisms of CPT on tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) induced lectin-like receptor for oxidized low density lipoprotein (LOX-1) were investigated. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cultured and the effect of TNF-α on LOX-1 expression at mRNA and protein levels was determined by Real-time PCR and Western blotting respectively. The formation of intracellular ROS was determined with fluorescence probe CM-DCFH2-DA. The endothelial ox-LDL uptake was evaluated with DiI-ox-LDL. The effect of CPT on LOX-1 expression was also evaluated with SD rats. TNF-α induced LOX-1 expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner in endothelial cells. TNF-α induced ROS formation, phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 and ERK, and LOX-1 expression, which were suppressed by rotenone, DPI, NAC, and CPT. NF-κB inhibitor BAY11-7082 and ERK inhibitor PD98059 inhibited TNF-α-induced LOX-1 expression. CPT and NAC suppressed TNF-α-induced LOX-1 expression and phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 and ERK in rat aorta. These data suggested that TNF-α induced LOX-1 expression via ROS activated NF-κB/ERK pathway, which could be inhibited by CPT. This study provides new insights for the anti-atherosclerotic effect of CPT.

Neocryptotanshinone (NCTS) is a natural product isolated from traditional Chinese herb Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge. In this study, we investigated its anti-inflammatory effects in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated mouse macrophage (RAW264.7) cells. MTT results showed that NCTS partly reversed LPS-induced cytotoxicity. Real-time PCR results showed that NCTS suppressed LPS-induced mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β). Moreover, NCTS could decrease LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production. Western blotting results showed that NCTS could down-regulate LPS-induced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), p-IκBα, p-IKKβ and p-NF-κB p65 without affecting cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). In addition, NCTS inhibited LPS-induced p-NF-κB p65 nuclear translocation. In conclusion, these data demonstrated that NCTS showed anti-inflammatory effect by suppression of NF-κB and iNOS signaling pathways.
