[Degradation Characteristics of Spectral Analysis of Straw Nursery Containers in Situ Soil Culture].

This paper aimed to reveal the degradation behavior of a new type of biodegradable containers. The biodegradable containers, which was made of modified soybean adhesive and straw, was processed in situ biodegradation under natural condition. The physicochemical property and microstructure of straw nursery containers treated and untreated were characterized with Cellulose Tester, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscope - Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and Thermo-gravimetry Analysis (TGA), respectively. The results indicated that the content of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin of treated specimen decreased to 21.43%, 21.41% and 9.54% from 29.03%, 30.44% and 12.52%, respectively, comparing with those of untreated straw nursery container. FTIR analysis revealed that the ester and fat bond have been ruptured, and the aromatic characteristic peak became weakened. SEM-EDS spectrum showed the microfibril chain in the container has been fragmentation, and the soybean adhesive was also degradation. The surface of container appeared oxidization degradation. TGA analysis showed that a large number of small molecules have been produced in the process of degradation and the thermo-stability of treated samples improved.

LncRNA EBLN3P promotes the progression of osteosarcoma through modifying the miR-224-5p/Rab10 signaling axis.

The treatment of patients with advanced-stage osteosarcoma represents a major challenge, with very few treatments currently approved. Although accumulating evidence has demonstrated the importance of lncRNAs in osteosarcoma, the current knowledge on the functional roles and molecular mechanisms of lncRNA endogenous born avirus-like nucleoprotein (EBLN3P) is limited. At present, the expressions of EBLN3P and miR-224-5p in osteosarcoma tissues were quantified by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR assay, and the expression of Ras-related protein 10 (Rab10) in osteosarcoma tissues was quantified by immunohistochemistry and western-blotting. The bioinformatics prediction software ENCORI was used to predict the putative binding sites of EBLN3P, Rab10 and miR-224-5p. The regulatory role of EBLN3P or miR-224-5p on cell proliferation, migration and invasion ability were verified by Cell Counting Kit-8, wound healing and Transwell assays, respectively. The interaction among EBLN3P, miR-224-5p and Rab10 were testified by luciferase. The increased expression of EBLN3P and Rab10 and decreased expression of miR-224-5p were observed in osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines. Besides, the overexpression of EBLN3P or knockdown of miR-224-5p were revealed to promote the proliferation, migration and invasion of osteosarcoma cells. Bioinformatics analysis and luciferase assay revealed that EBLN3P could directly interacted with miR-224-5p to attenuate miR-224-5p binding to the Rab10 3'-untranslated region. Furthermore, the mechanistic investigations revealed activation of the miR-224-5p/Rab10 regulatory loop by knockdown of miR-372-3p or overexpression of Rab10, thereby confirming the in vitro role of EBLN3P in promoting osteosarcoma cell proliferation, migration and invasion. To the best of our knowledge, the present study is the first to demonstrate that EBLN3P may act as a competitive endogenous RNA to modulate Rab10 expression by competitive sponging to miR-224-5p, leading to the regulation of osteosarcoma progression, which indicates a possible new approach to osteosarcoma diagnosis and treatment.

Characteristics of the nocturnal melatonin secretion concentration and circadian rhythm in patients with wake-up stroke / 国际脑血管病杂志

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of the nocturnal melatonin secretion concentration and circadian rhythm in patients with wake-up stroke (WUS).Methods:Patients with acute ischemia stroke (AIS) admitted to the Department of Neurology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from October 2019 to August 2022 were enrolled. They were divided into WUS group and non-WUS group. Saliva samples within one week after admission were collected (at 19∶00, 20∶00, 21∶00, 22∶00, and 23∶00) and melatonin concentration was measured. Melatonin secretion curve graph was drawn, dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) was calculated, and circadian rhythms were evaluated. The differences in endogenous circadian rhythms between the WUS group and the non-WUS group were compared. The relevant factors of WUS were determined by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results:A total of 116 patients with AIS were included, with 79 males (68.1%), aged 59.9±10.3 years; 35 patients (30.2%) were WUS. Univariate analysis showed that there was a statistically significant difference in the infarct site between the WUS group and the non-WUS group ( P=0.019). At 21:00 ( P=0.004) and the average ( P=0.038) nighttime melatonin concentration in the WUS group were significantly lower than those in the non-WUS group, and DLMO showed a significant delay compared to the non-WUS group (21:28:08 vs. 20:57:57; P=0.015). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed a significant independent correlation between DLMO delay and WUS (odds ratio 1.792, 95% confidence interval 1.123-2.858; P=0.014). Conclusion:Patients with WUS may have endogenous circadian rhythm delay, which is an independent risk factor for WUS.

Advance in osteoporosis screening methods / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

Osteoporosis has become a common chronic disease which seriously endangers the health of the elderly. China is facing high incidence of osteoporosis along with " three low" rates of screening, diagnosis, and treatment, the crux of which lies in the lack of convenient and effective screening methods for osteoporosis. DXA, the gold standard for the diagnosis of osteoporosis, has many setbacks such as expensive, radiation, and low accessibility in community, etc. which limits its application in large scale screening. The community screening methods for osteoporosis recommended by national guidelines are IOF one-minute test, osteoporosis self-assessment tool for Asians(OSTA), fracture risk assessment tool(FRAX ?), and quantitative ultrasound(QUS). In recent years, digital X-ray radiogrammetry(DXR) and opportunistic quantitative computed tomography(QCT)have also shown great potential in osteoporosis screening. This article reviews the application and research progress of the above screening methods, with the aim of improving the screening rate and contributing to the tertiary prevention and control mechanism of " wide awareness, early diagnosis and early treatment" of osteoporosis.

Symmetry of Single Leg Vertical Jump Height Hides Abnormal Lower Limb Biomechanics in Athletes after Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction / 中国运动医学杂志

Objective To explore whether the single leg vertical jump height limb symmetry index(LSI)＞90%can represent the normal lower limb biomechanics in athletes after anterior cruciate liga-ment reconstruction(ACLR)during jumping.Methods Forty-six athletes after ACLR were divided into a low symmetry group(jump height LSI＜90%,n=23)and a high symmetry group(jump height LSI＞90%,n=23)according to the symmetry of single leg vertical jump height,while 24 healthy counter-part athletes were chosen into the control group.The kinematic and kinetic characteristics were com-pared among the three groups.Results(1)At the take-off stage,compared with the control group,both sides of the low-symmetry group had higher peak hip flexion angle(P＜0.05),but only the operat-ed side showed lower knee flexion moment(P=0.002),knee power(P=0.01),ankle power(P=0.045)and peak vertical ground reaction force(P=0.008).(2)At the take-off stage,there were no significant differences between the operated side of the high symmetry group and the control group in all measure-ments.However,compared with the healthy side,the operated side demonstrated lower knee flexion moment(P=0.001),knee power(P=0.002),total power of lower limb(P=0.001)and peak vertical ground reaction force(P=0.046).(3)During landing,compared with the control group,bilateral sides of the low symmetry group showed a higher peak hip flexion angle(P＜0.05)and a lower peak flexion knee angle(P＜0.05),but its operated side demonstrated lower peak ankle dorsiflexion angle(P=0.018),knee flexion moment(P=0.005),knee power(P=0.037),ankle power(P=0.002),total power of lower limb(P=0.042),and peak vertical ground reaction force(P=0.022).(4)During landing,there were no significant differences in all variables between the operated side of the high symmetry group and the control group.However,compared with its healthy side,the affected side of the high symmetry group demonstrated lower knee flexion moment(P=0.002),ankle dorsiflexion moment(P=0.003),knee power(P＜0.001),total power of lower limbs(P=0.001),and peak vertical ground reaction force(P=0.023).Conclusion Despite achieving the single leg vertical jump height LSI＞90%,athletes after ACLR still showed abnormal lower limb biomechanical characteristics during propulsion and landing.In addition,such abnormality is more obvious in athletes after ACLR with jump height LSI＜90%.Therefore,sym-metry in jump height does not represent normal lower extremity biomechanics in athletes after ACLR.

A retrospective study of cryptococcal infection after renal transplantation and literature review / 中华器官移植杂志

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of cryptococcal infection after renal transplantation.Methods:The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively for 17 hospitalized cases of cryptococcal infection after kidney transplantation from January 2003 to December 2019. The relevant parameters included site of infection, clinical manifestations, complications, comorbidities, treatments and outcomes. The average time to infection after transplantation was (7.9±5.4) years, the median baseline level of creatinine was 137(75-741) μmol/L. Concurrent conditions included hypertension (n=15, 88.2%), diabetes (n=6, 35.3%) and chronic hepatitis (n=9, 52.9%). The most common site of infection was central nervous system (88.2%), followed by lungs (29.4%) and skin (17.6%).Results:The clinical manifestations were diverse. Most patients received amphotericin B liposome and/or fluconazole as an initial option. The outcomes were curing (n=17, 58.8%), death from cryptococcal infection (n=5, 29.4%), partial relief (n=1, 5.9%) and stable disease (n=1, 5.9%). Among 10 curative cases, 2 cases died from other causes and 4 cases returned to hemodialysis with graft loss.Conclusions:Cryptococcosis is typically a late-occurring infection in kidney transplant recipients. Many factors, such as complications, nonstandard antifungal treatment, immune dysbalance, have adverse prognoses. Strengthening follow-ups, dealing with complications, validating the diagnosis early, interdepartmental cooperations, standardizing antifungal therapy and balancing immune status may improve the outcomes of cryptococcosis after kidney transplantation.

Research progress of liver injury induced by Polygoni Mulitiflori Radix / 中国中药杂志

Polygoni Mulitiflori Radix, or dried root tuber of Polygonum multiflorum(PM), is a traditional Chinese tonic medicine, with the effect in nourishing liver and kidney, and benefiting blood essence and hair. It is widely used in clinical and healthcare products. In recent years, more and more reports about adverse reactions of root tuber of P.multiflorum and its preparations have been reported. Fortunately, there is also substantial progress in the experimental study on liver injury induced by PM. According to the literature review, the possible causes of liver injury were found to be the mixture of raw and processed PM and long-term high-dose administration. In addition, the liver injury induced by PM is idiosyncratic liver injury, and individual factors are also the important cause. At the same time, according to the literature reports, the effects of chemical components in different pathological animal models were summarized, finding that 2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside was the main component for liver injury; based on the clinical manifestations of liver injury induced by PM, the effects of some chemical components on bilirubin and bile acid metabolism were analyzed. This paper reviews the study progress of liver injury induced by PM.

The clinical significance of Msi1 gene and its biological role in colon cancer / 医学研究生学报

Objective　At present, the clinical significance and biological function of Msi1 (Musashi1) in colon cancer are still not very clear. So, a comprehensive understanding of the expression and role of Msi1 in colon cancer has important clinical and theoretical significance. This study is to investigate the clinical significance of Msi1 gene and its biological role in colon cancer by lentiviral vector to interfere with Msi1 gene expression in colon cancer SW480 cells.　Methods　20 colon cancer specimens were collected from the Second Surgery Department of the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from October 2013 to May 2014. Each specimen was collected from the cancer tissue and the adjacent intestinal wall tissue. Western blot was performed to determine the protein expression of Msi1 in tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues from colon cancer patients. The relationship between Msi1 protein expression and clinical characteristics was further analyzed. The lentiviral vector was used to construct a stable SW480 cell line with low expression of Msi1. The lentivirus containing two different interference sequences (shmsi1-1 and shmsi1-2) was transfected into the target cells, and the colon cancer cells were divided into control group (without any treatment), shMsi1-1 group (transfected shMsi1-1) and shMsi1-2 group (transfected shMsi1-2). The two lentivirus silencing effects were detected by Western blot. Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay, Clone formation assay was conducted to detect the colony forming ability, and Flow cytometry analysis was used to examine the apoptosis rate.　Results　The protein expression of Msi1 in colon cancer tissue(0.863±0.208) was significantly higher than that in adjacent normal tissues(0.272±0.078), and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.001). The relative expression of Msi1 protein in shMsi1-1 and shMsi1-2 groups (0.299±0.111 and 0.207±0.087) was significantly lower than that in the control group (1.000±0.149) (P<0.001). The proliferation rate of shMsi1-1 and shMsi1-2 at 48 h and 72 h was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.01). Compared with the control group (296.33±64.04), shMsi1-1 group (92.00±43.31) and shMsi1-2 group (78.67±32.87) were significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the control group [(4.01±0.26) %], the apoptosis rate of shMsi1-1 group, shMsi1-2 group [(10.22±1.04) %, (10.87±1.27) %] was significantly increased (P<0.001).　Conclusion　Interference with Msi1 gene expression inhibits proliferation of colon cancer SW480 cells and promotes tumor cell apoptosis. This finding provides a new intervention target for the clinical treatment of colon cancer.

In this study, from the most concerned issues of the patients, we established the OP patient practice guideline working group. 14 recommendations, as the OP patient practice guidelines, are proposed in accordance with the relevant principles of the "World Health Organization guidelines development manual" and the international normative process.

A simplified and miniaturized glucometer-based assay for the detection of β-glucosidase activity / 浙江大学学报（英文版）（B辑：生物医学和生物技术）

β-Glucosidase activity assays constitute an important indicator for the early diagnosis of neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis and qualitative changes in medicinal plants. The drawbacks of the existing methods are high consumption of both time and reagents, complexity in operation, and requirement of expensive instruments and highly trained personnel. The present study provides a simplified, highly selective, and miniaturized glucometer-based strategy for the detection of β-glucosidase activity. Single-factor experiments showed that optimum β-glucosidase activity was exhibited at 50 °C and pH 5.0 in a citric acid-sodium citrate buffer when reacting with 0.03 g/mL salicin for 30 min. The procedure for detection was simplified without the need of a chromogenic reaction. Validation of the analytical method demonstrated that the accuracy, precision, repeatability, stability, and durability were good. The linear ranges of β-glucosidase in a buffer solution and rat serum were 0.0873-1.5498 U/mL and 0.4076-2.9019 U/mL, respectively. The proposed method was free from interference from β-dextranase, snailase, β-galactosidase, hemicellulase, and glucuronic acid released by baicalin. This demonstrated that the proposed assay had a higher selectivity than the conventional dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) assay because of the specificity for salicin and unique recognition of glucose by a personal glucose meter. Miniaturization of the method resulted in a microassay for β-glucosidase activity. The easy-to-operate method was successfully used to detect a series of β-glucosidases extracted from bitter almonds and cultured by Aspergillus niger. In addition, the simplified and miniaturized glucometer-based assay has potential application in the point-of-care testing of β-glucosidase in many fields, including medical diagnostics, food safety, and environmental monitoring.

Correlation between iodine nutritional status and thyroid hormone levels of pregnant women in Guanshan Lake District of Guiyang / 中华地方病学杂志

Objective To investigate the relationship between iodine nutritional status and thyroid hormone levels,and to provide a guideline for monitoring iodine nutrition and thyroid function.Methods A crosssectional survey was performed by randomly selecting 341 samples (health pregnant women with a first child) from the Second People's Hospital of Guiyang,Bihai Community Medical Center and Jinhuayuan Community Center from October 2015 to September 2016.Levels of serum hormones and antibodies relative to throid of pregnant women in Guanshan Lake District of Guiyang at different pregnant times,which included throid stimulating hormone (TSH),free three triiodothyronine (FT3),free thyroxine (FT4),thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb),and thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb),were measured by the electrochemical luminescence method,and urinary iodine levels were measured by heat digestion.Results The median urinary iodine of pregnant women at early,middle and late stages (T1,T2 and T3 stages) were 191.8,198.9 and 214.5 μg/L,respectively.FT3 increased first and then decreased during pregnancy.Levels of FT3 in the T2 stage were significandy higher than those in T1 and T3 stages (FT3 medians at the three stages were 4.49,4.83 and 4.57 pmol/L),and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).FT4 levels decreased during pregnancy (FT4 medians at the three stages were 16.32,14.65 and 13.22 pmol/L),and the differences among the three groups were statistically significant (H =67.517,P ＜ 0.01).Statistically significant differences were not found in the TSH levels among the three groups ~SH medians at the three stages were 2.05,2.01 and 2.39 mU/L,H =1.297,P ＞ 0.05).The medians of TPOAb and TgAb during T2 stage (9.60 and 19.02 U/ml) were significantly lower than those of other groups (18.92 and 24.75 U/ml at stage T1,and 13.46 and 22.06 U/ml at stage T3),and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).TSH levels were consistent with urinary iodine levels.TSH levels in the excessive iodine group (urine iodine:250 ～ 499 μg/L,2.54 mU/L) were significantly higher than those in the adequate iodine group (urine iodine:150 ～ 249 μg/L,1.97 mU/L) and deficient iodine group (urine iodine:＜ 150 μg/L,1.91 mU/L),and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).No correlations were found between levels of FT3,FT4,TPOAb,TgAb and levels of the urinary iodine.There was a significant positive correlation between urinary iodine levels and TSH levels (rs =0.180,P ＜ 0.01).The incidence of abnormal thyroid function in pregnant women was 29.33％ (100/341),which was composed of clinical hypothyroidism (accounting for 0.88％,3/341),subclinical hypothyroidism (accounting for 25.51％,87/341),low T4 level (accounting for 1.76％,6/341),clinical hyperthyroidism (accounting for 0.59％,2/341),subclinical hyperthyroidism (accounting for 0.59％,2/341),and TPOAb positive and TgAb positive (accounting for 12.61％,43/341).These abnormalities occurred mainly in the T1 and T3 stages.The prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism increased with increasing of urinary iodine level,and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =11.269,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion There is a positive correlation between pregnancy iodine nutritional status and its TSH level,so it is important to monitor the level of urinary iodine during pregnancy and to screen the thyroid function and antibodies in the early and middle time of pregnancy.

Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction with reverse "Y"-plasty grafts and fixation in the femur with either a bioabsorbable interference screw or an Endobutton.

We propose a new reverse "Y"-plasty graft for use in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction that involves double tibial tunnels and a single femoral tunnel. With this technique, the hamstrings were used as autografts and fixed separately with bioabsorbable interference screws (group A) or Endobuttons (group B) in femurs. A prospective series of 63 patients underwent primary reconstruction of the ACL; all procedures were performed by the same surgeon. Group A included 35 patients (22 male, 13 female), with a mean age of 25.5 (17-40) years, who were followed up for 28.5 (12-48) months. Group B included 28 patients (17 male, 11 female), with a mean age of 24.3 (18-38) years, who were followed up for 29.5 (12-46) months. Lysholm, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Larson scoring were used to compare the therapeutic effects experienced at the knee. Lysholm scores were 93.26±2.67 (group A) and 93.81±2.42 (group B); Larson scores were 91.91±2.29 (group A) and 92.81±2.39 (group B); IKDC scores were 93.89±1.88 (group A) and 94.15±1.77 (group B). None of the scoring differences between groups were statistically significant (T(1)=0.849, P(1)=0.399, T(2)=1.506, P(2)=0.137, T(3)=0.560, P(3)=0.578). The Lachman test was negative in 46 patients (90.2%) and 51 knees, including 25 (89.3%) of the 28 knees in group A and 21 (91.3%) of the 23 knees in group B. Negative Pivot shift was present postoperatively in 49 knees of 51 patients (96.1%), including 27 (96.4%) of the 28 knees in group A and 22 (95.7%) of the 23 knees in group B. All of the patients in both groups achieved full extension and at least 135° of knee flexion. This novel technique involves the creation of double tibial tunnels and a single femoral tunnel. In the tibia, there was a bone bridge, ranging from 2 to 3mm, between the two bundles, which are tensioned at different degrees of flexion to maintain the stability of the knee. In the femur, the grafts were fixed with bioabsorbable interference screws or Endobuttons. The outcomes show that normal function and joint stability were achieved in both groups, as compared with preoperative measurements. Although the outcomes in group A (grafts fixed with the bioabsorbable interference screws in the femur) was better than those observed in group B (grafts fixed with Endobuttons), there was no statistical difference between the groups.

[Methane production by anaerobic co-digestion of chicken manure and Spartina alterniflora residue after producing methane].

The characteristics of Spartina alterniflora residue after producing methane (SAR) digested alone and co-digestion of various proportions of chicken manure and SAR were investigated by batch model at 35 degrees C +/- 1 degrees C. The initial total solid (TS) loading of all treatments was 8.0%. The results indicated that there was still some biogas produced by SAR with TS biogas yield of 107.25 mL x g(-1) and average methane content of 76.92%. The cellulose crystallinity of re-digested SAR was destructed by anaerobic microorganisms, and the destruction rate was 5.55%. Co-digestion meliorated the environment where microorganisms lived in and increased the cumulative biogas yield. When the ratio of chicken manure to SAR was 4 : 1, the cumulative biogas yield was highest while the cumulative biogas yield of T1 (the rate of chicken manure to SAR is 5 : 0 based on TS), T3-T6 (the rate of chicken manure to SAR are 3 : 2, 2 : 3, 1 :4 and 0 : 5 based on TS, respectively) were 61.31%, 62.09%, 52.15%, 39.74% and 31.67% of it. The anaerobic fermentation type of co-digestion is mix acid type fermentation. Co-digested with chicken manure promoted the destruction of cellulous crystallinity by 1.13% - 21.61% and especially when the rate of chicken manure to SAR was 4 : 1.
