ObjectiveTo study the CT values of certain phantoms scanned by various CT scanners with dissimilar parameters.Methods The CT values of tissue equivalent inserts was measured in the TM164 and CIRS-062 phantom scanned by TOSHIBA AQUILIONTM,SIEMENS SOMATOMTMSENSATIONTM 64 and SIEMENS SOMATOMTM SENSATIONTM OPEN with different voltages,currents and slice thicknesses and then the corresponding CT-to-density curves was compared. Results There are no significant differences of CT values with various currents and slice thicknesses and also for low atom number materials scanned by different scanners with various tube voltages.The CT values of high atom number materials have obvious differences scanned with tube voltage,the maximum is about 400 HU.There are also significant differences between CT-density curves of two phantoms in the range from soft tissues to dense bone,the maximum is up to 500 HU.ConclusionsCT-density curves were highly affected by materials of phantoms,scanners and tube voltages.It is necessary to measure the curve with a comfortable phantom and certain scanner to assure the accuracy for dose calculation for treatment planning system.

Objective To evaluate the microbial contamination levels of 10 kinds of Chinese herbal pieces,and explore the diversity of fungi and heat-resistant bacteria.Methods The total aerobic microbial count(TAMC),total yeast and mould count(TYMC),total heat-resistant microbial count(THRC)and 3 types control bacteria were detected according to the microbial limit inspection method of Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020.Besides,the community characteristics of contaminated fungi and heat-resistant bacteria on prepared slices were analysed based on internal transcribed spacer(ITS)and 16S ribosomal DNA(16SrDNA)high-throughput sequencing method.Results The TAMC of 28%(14/50)samples exceeded 106 cfu/g,the TYMC of 20%(10/50)samples exceeded 104 cfu/g,the THRC of 68%(34/50)samples were higher than 10 cfu/g,and the bile-tolerant gram-negitive bacteria were detected in 40%(20/50)of the samples.Escherichia coli were found in 2 batches of the Pogostemon cablin,but Salmonella was not found in any sample.High throughput sequencing results showed that the fungi contaminated distributed in 12 phylums,777 genera and 1 467 species;the heat-resistant bacteria were mainly distributed in 5 phylums,57 genera and 74 species.The decoction pieces contained Aspergillus flavus and heat-resistant pathogens such as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens,Staphylococcus lentus,and Staphylococcus warneri.Conclusion The 10 kinds of decoction pieces are generally contaminated by microorganisms,and some of them contain toxic fungi and pathogenic heat-resistant bacteria,which poses a potential risk of microbial pathogenicity for patients.

Objective:To explore the expression of circ-KEL in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and the effect and mechanism of circ-KEL on leukemic cells.Methods:The expression of circ-KEL was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction in bone marrow mononuclear cells collected from 116 patients with AML and 40 healthy donors. The correlation of circ-KEL expression with the clinical characteristics of patients with AML was further systematically analyzed. The modulations among circ-KEL, miR-335-5p, and LRG1 were predicted through bioinformatics analysis and validated by dual luciferase assay. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were detected using CCK8 and flow cytometry.Results:The expression of circ-KEL was significantly elevated in patients with AML compared with the healthy controls (Relative expression level, -Δct, AML: -7.117±1.831; control: -8.669±1.771, P<0.001) . Moreover, patients with high circ-KEL expression have significantly worse overall survival. The level of circ-KEL in patients with AML was downregulated after chemo-treatment. In addition, circ-KEL could serve as the sponge of miR-335-5p and regulate LRG1. Bioinformatics analysis showed that miR-335-5p correlates with good prognosis and was negatively associated with LRG1. LRG1 could promote cell proliferation and inhibit cell apoptosis. Our results also exhibited the higher expression of LRG1 in patients with AML. Moreover, circ-KEL exerted functional effects via sponging miR-335-5p and regulating LRG1. Conclusion:circ-KEL expresses highly in patients with AML and correlates with poor prognosis, suggesting its important role in the genesis and progress of AML.
5.Advances in the functions of the BASP1 protein in human diseases
Chinese Journal of Arteriosclerosis 2024;32(5):444-450
Brain abundant membrane attached signal protein 1(BASP1)was first discovered in the rat brain and is primarily enriched in brain,heart,mouth,skin,stomach,kidneys and many other human organs.The BASP1 protein is evolutionarily conserved.It participates in cellular biological processes such as cell signaling,cell migration,apoptosis,and gene transcription as an inherently disordered protein(IDP),and is involved in a series of pathophysiological processes such as neural development,kidney development,and germ cell formation.BASP1 plays a very important func-tion in glucose,lipid metabolism diseases and tumor diseases,and is considered to be a potential disease treatment target and molecular diagnostic marker.

Objective To investigate the epidemic factors of schistosomiasis in wetlands in Sichuan Province, so as to provide scientific evidence for the prevention and control of schistosomiasis in wetlands. Methods The artificial and natural wetlands were selected from Sichuan Province, and the relevant data regarding wetlands were collected. Routine snail survey, investigation on human morbidity due to schistosomiasis, snail diffusion experiments, questionnaire survey, determination of water infectivity and retrospective survey were conducted. Results In Sichuan Province, the mean densities of living snails were 0.003 snails/0.1 m2 and 2.033 snails/0.1 m2 in the upper and lower reaches of the Meiwan Reservoir wetlands, 0.08 snails/0.1 m2 in the Jinyan Lake of Guanghan City, 0.21 snails/0.1 m2 in Muhe River of Guanghan City, and 0.02 snails/0.1 m2 prior to the construction of Qiong-hai wetland park in Xichang City in 2015. Artificial simulation experiments showed that the largest distance of snail diffusion in water was 2 000 m. There were 8.80% (41/466) of subjects that lived neighboring wetlands, worked in wetlands and visited wet-lands having infested water contact behaviors. A total of 690 sentinel mice were assigned, and no Schistosoma japonicum infection was detected in the 677 mice dissected. Retrospective survey showed that the construction of the Meiwan Reservoir caused the spread of schistosomiasis in Dailing County, and snails were found in the ditches entering the Jinyan Lake and in Jinyan Lake areas 5 years following the construction of the Jinyan Lake in Guanghan City, with S. japonicum -infected snails detected in the ditches entering the Jinyan Lake. Conclusions O. hupensis snails are found in some wetlands in Sichuan Province. Protection of wetlands and snail control with environmental improvements are recommended for the prevention of snail importation in natural wetlands, while in artificial wetlands, thorough snail control is recommended during the construction of the wetlands because of the likelihood of snail importation via water systems. In addition, both natural and artificial wetlands require long-term systematic surveillance of schistosomiasis.
