Objective To investigate the effect of a new cloned full length gene, C2 gene which encodes a translation initiation factor, on cell cycle and the relationship between C2gene and apoptosis. Methods Construct a eukaryotic vector carrying the full length of C2 gene, then transfected it into a gastric cell line-SGC7901 cells and gained cells expressing C2 protein transiently or stably. Test the expression of C2 protein and the change of cell cycle of the transfected cells using the flurescence activatied cell sorting(FACS) and the changes of their ultra structure electromicroscopically. Results The C2 gene eukaryotic expression vector was successfully constructed. FACS showed the C2 protein expression ratio of transfected cells was 32.3%, while the empty control group was 0.9%. The test of cell cycle showed that there was appeared apoptosis peak in transiently or stably transfected cells. The apoptosis cells can be seen electromicroscopically among the C2 transfected cells. Conclusions C2 gene transfection can lead SGC7901 cells to apoptosis, but the mechanism has to be further study.

Evaluating the prevalence of kidney damage according to population-based studies in different communities has been limited in developing countries. We conducted a population-based screening study in Uygur people of Urumqi, aiming to identify the prevalence and associated risk factors of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Uygur populations. A total of 2576 residents (>18 years) from four districts of Urumqi were interviewed from June 2007 to January 2009 and tested for haematuria, albuminuria and reduced renal function. Associations between age, gender, smoking, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hyperuricaemia and kidney damage were examined. There were 2576 subjects enrolled in this study. After age correction, the prevalence of albuminuria, haematuria and reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 3.58%, 2.26% and 1.03%, respectively. Approximately 5.65% of the sample population had at least one indicator of kidney damage. Age, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesteremia, hyperuricaemia and hyperlipidaemia were independently associated with CKD. In the general Uygur adult population from Urumqi, 5.65% had either proteinuria, haematuria or reduced eGFR, indicating the presence of kidney damage, with an awareness of only 1.05%. The high prevalence and low awareness of CKD in this population suggest an urgent need for CKD prevention programs in Uygur people.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD)and risk factors in the adult population of Tianshan district in Urumqi, Xinjiang. Methods A total of 2131 residents from 4 communities in Tianshan district of Urumqi city were randomly selected using a stratified, multistage sampling. All the residents were interviewed and tested for morning spot urine of albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) (abnormal ≥ 30 mg/g), morning spot urine dipstick of hematuria ( abnormal >3 red blood cells/HP or greater) and pyuria ( abnormal> 5 white blood cells/HP) confirmed by microscopy. Renal function was determined with abbreviated MDRD equation [reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)<60 ml ·min-1 ·(1.73 m2)-1]. The associations of kidney damage indicators with age, gender, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, income,education, cholesterol, triglyceride and smoking were examined. Results Eligible data of 2131 subjects were collected in the study. After the adjustment of age and gender component, the prevalence of albuminuria was found in 2.63% (95%CI:1.78%-3.48%) of subjects, hematuria in 7.43%(95%CI:6.11%-8.75%) and reduced renal function in 1.72%(95%CI:1.08%-2.35%).Approximately 9.99%(95%CI:8.47%-11.55%) of subjects had at least one indicator of kidney damage. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that albuminuria, hematuria, age and hyperuricemia were independently associated with reduced renal function. Hematuria and reduced renal function were independently associated with albuminuria. Albuminuria, reduced renal function and female were independently associated with hematuria. Conclusion In urban adult population over 35 years old of Urumqi, a big city in western China, the prevalence of CKD is 9.99%, the recognition is 2.44% and the risk factors of CKD are similar to those of other domestic big cities and western developed countries.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) complicated with intra- and extra-intestinal tumors, and so as to provide reference for clinical practice.Methods:From October 2008 to March 2022, the clinical data of 2 360 IBD patients diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University were collected, and the IBD patients complicated with intra- and extra-intestinal tumors were screened out. IBD with colorectal cancer, small intestine cancer and intestinal lymphoma were enrolled into intra-intestinal tumor group, IBD complicated with other tumors except intra-intestinal tumors were enrolled into extra-intestinal tumor group. The clinical characteristics of the 2 groups were retrospectively compared, and the risk factors affecting survival of IBD complicated intra- and extra-intestinal tumor were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curve, Cox regression model was performed to analyze the prognostic risk factors, and independent sample t test, Fisher′s exact test and log-rank test were used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 43 IBD patients with intra- and extra-intestinal tumor were screened out, and the overall tumor incidence rate was 1.82% (43/2 360). The rate of IBD complicated with intra-intestinal tumor accounted for 1.27% (30/2 360). Among them, the rate of ulcerative colitis (UC) complicated with intra-intestinal tumor was 1.48% (25/1 685), and the rate of Crohn′s disease (CD) complicated with intra-intestinal tumor was 0.74% (5/675). The rate of IBD with extra-intestinal tumor accounted for 0.55% (13/2 360). Among them, the rate of UC complicated with extra-intestinal tumor was 0.71% (12/1 685), and the rate of CD complicated with extra-intestinal tumor was 0.15% (1/675). There were no significant differences in the rate of intra- and extra-intestinal tumors between UC and CD patients (both P>0.05). In the intra-intestinal tumor group, the age when diagnosed with IBD and the age when tumor diagnosed were (37.0±13.8) years old and (47.7±13.5) years old, which were both lower than those of the extra-intestinal tumor group ((51.8±6.2) years old and (60.7±7.8) years old), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-3.69 and -3.24, P=0.001 and 0.002). The lesion location when tumor diagnosed of UC patients with intra-intestinal tumor mainly was extensive colonic type(64.0%, 16/25), followed by left part colonic type and rectal type in turn (28.0%, 7/25 and 8.0%, 2/25). In UC patients with extra-intestinal tumor, mainly was rectal type (8/12), followed by left part colonic type (3/12) and extensive colonic type (1/12) in turn. There was statistically significant difference bwtween the UC patients with intra- and extra-intestinal tumor in the extent of lesions when tumor diaghosed (Fisher′s exact test, P<0.001). The activity of IBD of intra-intestinal tumor group when tumor diagnosed mainly was severe activity phase (46.7%, 14/30), followed by moderate activity phase, mild activity phase and remission phase in turn (33.3%, 10/30; 20.0%, 6/30 and 0). The activity of IBD of extra-intestinal tumor group when tumor diagnosed mainly was remission phase (7/13), followed by moderate activity phase, mild activity phase and severe activity phase in turn (3/13, 2/13 and 1/13). There were statistically significant differences between the 2 groups in the composition of IBD activity when tumor diagnosed (Fisher′s exact test, P<0.001). The survival analysis indicated the median survival time of IBD complicated with intra-intestinal tumor group was 145.9 months, and that of the extra-intestinal tumor group was 29.9 months. The results of multivariate Cox analysis showed that the occurrence of extra-intestinal tumor was an independent risk factor of patient survival rate( HR=5.119, 95% confidence interval 1.485 to 17.643, P=0.010). Conclusions:IBD patients had a high risk of developing intra- and extra-intestinal tumors. The intra-intestinal tumor group mainly is extensive colonic type and severe active period, while the extra-intestinal tumor group mainly is rectal type and remission period. Compared with that of the extra-intestinal tumor group, the age at time of IBD onset and tumor diagnosed of intestinal tumor are younger, and the survival time is longer.
