Objective To investigate the changes of the forkhead box transcription factor-1(FOX01) mRNA level in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) from type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) patients and to explore the role of FOX01 in pathogenesis of T2DM.Methods PBMC was isolated from 62 T2DM patients and 40 healthy persons.FOX01 mRNA level in PBMC was measured with reverse transcription PCR and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR.Results FOX01 mRNA level in PBMC from T2DM patients was significantly higher than that from healthy persons(P

Duck circovirus(DuCV),a potential immunosuppressive virus,was investigated in Southern China from March 2006 to December 2009 by using a polymerase chain reaction(PCR)based method. In this study,a total of 138 sick or dead duck samples from 18 different farms were examined with an average DuCV infection rate of～35%. It was found that ducks between the ages of 40～60 days were more susceptible to DuCV. There was no evidence showing that the DuCV virus was capable of vertical transmission. Farms with positive PCR results exhibited no regularly apparent clinical abnormalities such as feathering disorders,growth retardation or lower-than-average weight. The complete genomes of 9. strains from Fujian Province and 1 from Zhejiang Province were sequenced and analyzed. The 10 DuCV genomes,compared with others genomes downloaded from GenBank,ranged in size from 1988 to 1996 base pairs,with sequence identities ranging from 83.2% to 99.8%. Phylogenetic analysis based on genome sequences demonstrated that DuCVs can be divided into two distinct genetic genotypes,Group I(the Euro-USA lineage)and Group II(the Taiwan lineage),with approximately 10.0% genetic difference between the two types. Molecular epidemiological data suggest there is no obvious difference among DuCV strains isolated from different geographic locations or different species,including Duck,Muscovy duck,Mule duck,Cheery duck,Mulard duck and Pekin duck.

ABSTRACT:Objective To explore the expression of chemokine receptor CX3CR1 in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP)rats model and to estimate whether it can be a potential predictor of SAP.Methods Forty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham-operation (SO)group (n =20)and SAP group (n =20).Rats were killed at 6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h after model induction.The serum level of CX3CR1 was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The expression of CX3CR1 protein in the pancreas,lung and kidney were detected by immunohistochemistry.Results The serum level of CX3CR1 in SAP rats increased gradually after model induction and reached the peak at 24 h (542.4 pg/mL),which were significantly higher than those in SO group (P <0.05).The expression of CX3CR1 was found in the pancreas,lung and kidney tissues of SAP rats and higher than that in SO group.Meanwhile,the expression of CX3CR1 reached the peak at 24 h in the pancreas and lung and at 48 h in the kidney.Conclusion This study suggests that the chemokine receptor CX3CR1 may be one effective index for predicting the severity of acute pancreatitis and deserves further research.

With the construction and development of head and neck tumor, diagnosis and treatment technology and survival rate of patients have been improved in different degrees. Nurses play an important role as managers and practitioners in the treatment and rehabilitation of patients with head and neck tumors, and it is very important to evaluate and manage the treatment and prognosis of head and neck tumor patients scientifically. In this context, the American Cancer Society launched the Head and Neck Cancer Survivorship Care Guideline in 2017 and was endorsed by the American Society for Clinical Oncology. This paper mainly discusses the forming process of the guidelines, the main points of the consensus of experts, the guiding role of the guidelines in clinical work and the obstacles and limitations of the guidelines.

Objective: To investigate the value of means of surfaces with nonhomogeneity (MSN) in esti-mating the incidence of pneumoconiosis. Methods: Based on the principal component analysis, all counties (districts) of Hebei Province, China, were divided into three categories according to the degree of pneumoconiosis hazards and the MSN model was used to estimate the incidence rate of pneumoconiosis and the number of pneu-moconiosis cases using the data of the incidence of pneumoconiosis in 2010. Results: With reference to the appli-cation requirements of the MSN model, results of the principal component analysis, and expert experience, the 172 counties (districts) in Hebei Province were divided into three categories with mild, moderate, and severe pneumoconiosis hazards. There were 74, 61, and 49 counties in the above categories, respectively, and 12, 12, and 25 counties were selected from them, respectively. The estimated number of pneumoconiosis cases in Hebei Province was 2105, and the incidence rate was 261.5 per hundred thousand, with a standard error of esti-mation of 389.9 per hundred thousand. Conclusion The MSN model provides a new thought and method for es-timating the number of pneumoconiosis cases.

Objective To investigate high risk human papillomavirus(HR-HPV)prevalence among married women in Beijing and to study the high risk flactors.nethods During March 2007 to September 2008.a total of 6185 married women sampled from 137 communities in 12 districts were screened bv HR-HPV DNA test and cytogical test.The interview was carried out with unified questionnaires.The databage was set up and twice entered in EpiDam 3.0.After checked up,the data were analyzed in SPSS 15.0.Results (1) The HR-HPV infection rate was 9.89%.The HR-HPV infection rate of the city zone,the suburb and the exurb were 9.34%,10.51% and 9.51% (P>0.05).The HR-HPV infection rate of the native and the oudander were 9.53%,11.30% (P<0.05).(2) The age distribution of HR-HPV infection was that the rate was around 10% among 25 to 44 age groups,which was the highest(11.21%) in 30 to 34 age group;then the rate was descended as the age raising,the rate of 50 to 54 age group was the lowest(7.78%).(3) Multiple logistic regression showed that the related risk factors of HR-HPV infection mainly included 1000 RMB and above of family income per person per month.possessing more than 1 sexual partner of her husband,outlander and hish levels of education.(4) The prevalence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN)in HR-HPV positive group wag significantly higher than that in HR-HPV negative group(29.76% vs 3.32%,P<0.01).Conclusions(1)The HR-HPV infection rate among aged 25 to 54 years was 9.9% and there was no significant difference in area distribution.(2)The hish risk population which should strengthen screening was the married bearing-age women with high level of family income,outlander,high levels of education and her husband possessing more than 1 sexual partner.(3)HR-HPV infection is the main risk factor for CIN and cervical cancer.while does not provide a causal relationship with them.The high risk population should be checked regularly to understand the development of HR-HPV infection and CIN incidence.

Background Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, staff of the centers for disease control and prevention (CDC) have been burdened with heavy epidemic prevention control, and excessive occupational stress can cause depression and other psychological problems. Objective To explore the status of occupational stress, resilience, and depression of CDC staff and potential relationships between them. Methods From December 2020 to April 2021, a survey was conducted at provincial and municipal levels, and the stratified cluster sampling method was used at county (district) level to select a total of 3514 samples. Their occupational stress, resilience, and depression status were evaluated using the Chinese Effort-Reward Imbalance Scale (ERI), the Chinese Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). Independent sample t test, analysis of variance, χ² test, Pearson correlation analysis, and mediation test (structural equation model) were conducted. Results The positive rate of occupational stress was 34.29% in the CDC staff, the resilience score was 66.28±15.32, and the positive rate of depression was 48.58%. Significant differences were found in the positive rates of occupational stress among different groups of gender, age, education background, marital status, administrative duty, weekly exercise frequency, chronic disease prevalence, and participation in epidemic control (P<0.05); in the resilience scores among different groups of gender, age, administrative duty, weekly exercise frequency, chronic disease prevalence, and participation in epidemic control (P<0.05); in the positive rates of depression among different groups of gender, age, educational background, personal monthly income, weekly exercise frequency, chronic disease prevalence, and participation in epidemic control (P<0.05). Occupational stress was negatively correlated with resilience (r=−0.165, P<0.01). Resilience was negatively correlated with depression (r=−0.383, P<0.01). Occupational stress was positively correlated with depression (r=0.343, P<0.01). The structural equation embracing a partial mediating effect of resilience on the relationship occupational stress and depression was established, and the partial mediating effect was 0.039, accounting for 10.46% of the total effect. Conclusion High positive rates of occupational stress, reduced resilience, and depression are shown among CDC staff in the context of the COVID-19 epidemic, and resilience partially mediates the effect of occupational stress on depression. The study findings suggest that improving resilience may reduce occupational stress and depression in CDC staff.
