Objective To investigate the gene sequence and mutations of human papillomavirus(HPV)type16E6E7in patients with HPV infection in Beijing.Methods Sample DNA was extracted from lesions in patients with HPV infection.HPV types were identified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR).E6E7gene,isolated from samples infected with HPV16only,was cloned into plasmid pGEM-3zf and sequenced.Results The recombinant plasmid pGEM/16E6E7was constructed successfully.The whole HPV E6E7gene was776bp in length which was equal to that of the standard strain.Three nucleotides exchanges,i.e.,p60PROE6,p96GLUE6,p565SERE7,were found in E6E7gene.Conclusion The data suggest that there are nucleotide differences of HPV E6E7gene between HPV obtained from Beijing and that of standard sequence.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of teacher-assisted jaw thrust maneuver on the learning effectiveness of Bonfils fiberscope-guided tracheal intubation for the beginners.Methods:Forty-eight accompanying physicians who were receiving residents standardized training in the Department of Anesthesiology, Peking Union Medical College from April, 2020 to March 2021 and served as trainees were enrolled in this study.The trainees received Bonfils fiberscope training and were randomly divided into independent group ( n=24) and assisted group ( n=24). After induction of general anesthesia, the trainees independently performed the Bonfils fiberscope-guided endotracheal intubation operation in independent group, and trainees performed the operation with the assistance of the teacher′s jaw thrust maneuver in assisted group.The success of intubation at first attempt, duration of intubation, times of teachers′ guidance and scores for trainees′ learning confidence were recorded. Results:Compared with independent group, the success rate of intubation at first attempt was significantly increased, the duration of intubation was shortened, scores for trainees′ learning confidence was increased ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the times of teachers′ guidance in assisted group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:For the beginners learning Bonfils fiberscope-guided tracheal intubation, teacher-assisted jaw thrust maneuver is helpful in raising the learning effectiveness and increasing the beginners′ learning confidence.

Objective:To evaluate and compare the efficacy and safety of ultra-rapid lispro insulin (URLi) and humalog lispro (HL) in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods:This was an international multicenter, double-blind, randomized controlled study. From May 2019 to January 2021, a total of 481 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, who had been using insulin for at least 90 days and had poor glycemic control, were included. These patients were recruited from 34 research centers in China, including Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine Affiliated Sixth People′s Hospital. They were assigned to either the URLi group (319 patients) or the HL group (162 patients) using stratified blocked randomization. The primary endpoint was the change in hemoglobin A 1c (HbA 1c) relative to baseline after 26 weeks of treatment. Secondary endpoints included the proportion of patients who achieved HbA 1c<7.0% and ≤6.5% after 26 weeks of treatment, 1-h postprandial glucose (1hPG) or 2-h postprandial glucose (2hPG) excursions during a mixed meal tolerance test at week 26, as well as safety parameters. Continuous variables were compared using mixed model repeated measures or analysis of covariance, and categorical variables were compared using logistic regression or Fisher′s exact test. Results:Data based on the Chinese subgroup showed that there were no statistically significant differences between the URLi and HL groups in terms of male percentage [56.1% (179/319) vs. 56.2% (91/162); P=0.990], age [(59.5±8.4) vs. (59.6±9.3) years; P=0.839] and other baseline characteristics. Regarding the change in HbA 1c relative to baseline, the URLi group was non-inferior to the HL group (-0.59%±0.05% vs. -0.66%±0.06%; P=0.312). There were no statistically significant differences between the URLi and HL groups in proportion of patients who achieved HbA 1c<7.0% [47.3% (138/292) vs. 45.2% (70/155); P=0.907] and≤6.5% [27.7% (81/292) vs. 27.7% (43/155); P=0.816]. The excursions in 1hPG [(6.20±0.21) vs. (6.90±0.25) mmol/L; P=0.001] and 2hPG [(8.10±0.27) vs. (9.30±0.31) mmol/L; P<0.001] were lower in the URLi group than the HL group, with statistically significant differences. In terms of safety, there were no statistically significant differences in the percentage of subjects who reported treatment-emergent adverse events between the URLi and HL groups [49.8% (159/319) vs. 50.0% (81/162); P=1.000]. The event rate of nocturnal hypoglycemia was lower in the URLi group than the HL group, with statistically significant differences [(0.53±0.10) vs. (0.89±0.16) events per patient -year; P=0.040]. Conclusions:With good glycemic control, URLi showed non-inferiority for HbA 1c improvement versus HL and was superior to HL for postprandial glucose excursion control. Meanwhile the rate and incidence of nocturnal hypoglycemia were lower in the URLi group than the HL group.

Age-dependent loss of skeletal muscle mass and function is a feature of sarcopenia, and increases the risk of many aging-related metabolic diseases. Here, we report phenotypic and single-nucleus transcriptomic analyses of non-human primate skeletal muscle aging. A higher transcriptional fluctuation was observed in myonuclei relative to other interstitial cell types, indicating a higher susceptibility of skeletal muscle fiber to aging. We found a downregulation of FOXO3 in aged primate skeletal muscle, and identified FOXO3 as a hub transcription factor maintaining skeletal muscle homeostasis. Through the establishment of a complementary experimental pipeline based on a human pluripotent stem cell-derived myotube model, we revealed that silence of FOXO3 accelerates human myotube senescence, whereas genetic activation of endogenous FOXO3 alleviates human myotube aging. Altogether, based on a combination of monkey skeletal muscle and human myotube aging research models, we unraveled the pivotal role of the FOXO3 in safeguarding primate skeletal muscle from aging, providing a comprehensive resource for the development of clinical diagnosis and targeted therapeutic interventions against human skeletal muscle aging and the onset of sarcopenia along with aging-related disorders.
