Objective : To learn the epidemiological characteristics of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases reported from January 21 to February 20,2020 in Zhejiang Province,so as to provide basis for formulating and implementing effective control measures. Methods : The COVID-19 cases reported by Zhejiang Province were extracted from the National Diseases Prevention and Control Information System. A descriptive analysis was adopted for the epidemiological characteristics of COVID-19 cases,including time,spatial and population distribution,severity of symptoms, and exposure history. Results : Totally 1 284 cases were reported,of which 1 176 were confirmed cases (91.59%) and 108 were asymptomatic cases (8.41%). The first confirmed case was reported on January 21. The curve of the disease onset peaked from January 22 to 29, with 87 cases as the biggest number a day. The curve of the disease reported peaked from January 28 to 30, with 130 cases as the biggest number a day. Then the number of the cases showed a declining trend. By February 4, totally 79 counties (cities, districts) had confirmed cases, covering 87.78% of Zhejiang Province, and it has not increase since then. A male to female ratio of 1.02∶1 was reported among 1 284 cases,1 021 were 30-69 years old (79.52%) and 339 (26.40%) were business service providers. There were 11 health workers reported to be infected,but not by occupational exposure. Among the confirmed cases, 1 010 (85.88%) were clinically mild cases. One case died. Before January 23, the cases were mainly imported from Hubei Province, local cases were predominant by the end of January. Conclusions The COVID-19 epidemic has spread widely in Zhejiang Province and people are generally susceptible. Most cases were clinically mild, and were aged 30-69 years. No health workers infected were due to occupational exposure. The incidence of COVID-19 in Zhejiang Province has turned into a lower level,suggesting that the early prevention and control measures have achieved initial results. With people returning from holiday, precise prevention and control should be put into effect.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in colonic mucosal tissues of ulcerative colitis (UC) patients and UC mice model and the activity of UC.Methods From December 2016 to January 2018,at Department of Gastroenterology,the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Traditional Chinese Medicine University,60 patients with UC were recruited,of which 15 cases at remission phase,15 cases at mild activity phase,and 15 cases at moderate activity phase,and 15 cases at severe activity phase;and 15 healthy subjects were selected as healthy control group.UC mice models were established by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS).Forty-eight BALB/c mice were divided into 2.5％ DSS group,5.0％ DSS group and 7.5％ DSS group and control group.The colon tissues of UC patients and UC mice models were pathologically scored.The expression of NLRP3,cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase 1 (caspase-1) and apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing CARD (ASC)at mRNA level in colon tissues of UC patients and UC mice models were determined by real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR).The expression of NLRP3,caspase-1 and ASC at protein level in colon tissues of UC patients and UC mice models were detected by Western blotting.One-way analysis of variance and SNK-t test were performed for statistical analysis.Results The histopathological scores of colon tissues of UC patients at remission phase,at mild activity phase,at moderate activity phase,at severe activity phase and healthy controls were 2.37 ± 0.46,4.84 ± 1.29,6.82 ± 0.96,9.42 ± 1.13 and 1.23 ± 0.55,respectively;the differences were statistically significant (F =67.68,P ＜ 0.01).The higher the degree of inflammation,the higher the pathological score,and the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05).The pathological scores of colon tissues of mice in the 2.5％ DSS group,5.0％ DSS group and 7.5％ DSS group were 4.54±0.74,6.02± 1.00 and 8.43 ± 1.46,respectively;the higher the dose of DSS,the higher the pathological score,and the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05).The expression of NLRP3 at mRNA level of UC at remission phase,mild activity phase,moderate activity phase,severe activity phase and healthy controls were 1.15 ±0.10,1.49 ±0.13,2.00±0.25,2.05 ±0.33 and 0.61 ±0.09,respectively;the expression ofcaspase-1 at mRNA level were 1.13 ±0.08,1.51 ±0.19,2.10 ±0.23,2.88 ±0.33 and 0.61 ±0.11,respectively;the expression of ASC at mRNA level were 1.12 ± 0.08,1.88 ± 0.33,2.53 ± 0.22,3.20 ± 0.24 and 0.59 ± 0.12,respectively;the differences between groups were statistically significant (F =108.43,63.25 and 105.25,all P ＜ 0.01).The higher the degree of inflammation,the higher the mRNAexpression levels of NLRP3,caspase-1 and ASC,and the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜0.01).The higher the dose of DSS,the higher the protein expression levels of NLRP3,caspase-1 and ASC at mRNA level.The higher the degree of inflammation,the higher expression of NLRP3,caspase-1 and ASC in colon tissues of UC patients.The higher dose of DSS,the higher the protein expression levels of NLRP3,caspase-1 and ASC in colon tissues of mice.Conclusions The expression level of NLRP3 inflammasome is different in different stages of UC,the higher degree of inflammatory activity,the higher the expressie level.It is helpful to evaluate the activity of UC by detecting the expression level of NLRP3 inflammasome.

Objective:To understand the status and influencing factors of the bowel function in patients with rectal cancer after sphincter-preserving surgery, and then to improve the patients′ quality of life.Methods:From January 2017 to April 2020, a total of 179 patients with rectal cancer after sphincter-preserving surgery in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center were selected as study subjects. General questionnaire and the scale about bowel function of patients with rectal cancer after sphincter-preserving surgery were used to investigate.Results:The total score of bowel function in patients with rectal cancer after sphincter-preserving surgery was (71.82±7.67), and the average score of all the items was (3.99 ± 0.43). In all dimensions of intestinal function, the average score of "defecation affected by diet" was the highest (4.39 ± 0.80), followed by "frequent and urgent defecation" (4.22 ± 0.49), and the average score of "defecation paresthesia" was the lowest (3.03 ± 0.67). Tumor distance from the anal border was the influencing factor of bowel function in patients with rectal cancer after sphincter-preserving surgery ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The bowel function of patients with rectal cancer after sphincter-preserving surgery was well, while the bowel function of patients with rectal cancer after sphincter-preserving surgery with the distance between the tumor and the lower edge of the anus <5.0 cm was relatively poor.

Objective: To analyze the influencing factors for hospitalization of pneumoconiosis patients, so as to provide reference for improving the timeliness of treatment and quality of life in these patients. Methods: The pneumoconiosis patients in Changshan, Wenling and Changxing ( having mining industry ) of Zhejiang Province were selected by stratified and typical sampling methods. Their demographic features, prevalence of pneumoconiosis and hospitalization status were collected by a questionnaire survey. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze the influencing factors for hospitalization. Results: Among 166 pneumoconiosis patients, 122 ( 73.49% ) chose to be hospitalized. The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the patients who scored higher in ED-5Q ( OR=65.821, 95%CI: 3.831-1130.781 )and who would communicate with other pneumoconiosis patients ( OR=3.744, 95%CI: 1.261-11.115 ) were more likely to be hospitalized; the patients who were under the medical insurance for urban employees were more likely to be hospitalized than those who were under the new rural cooperative medical care system ( OR=0.033, 95%CI: 0.007-0.154 ) and others ( OR=0.038, 95%CI: 0.002-0.960 ) . Conclusion The quality of life, communication with other pneumoconiosis patients and type of medical insurance were the influencing factors for hospitalization of pneumoconiosis patients.

Aptamers are DNA or RNA fragments that can specifically bind to target substances.Because of the excellent properties such as strong binding force,high specificity,small physical size,chemical synthesis and modification,good biocompatibility,and low immunogenicity aptamers show wide application propects in biomedical researches.Aptamers can also bind specifically to receptors on the surface of cell membranes,and mediate the endocytosis of nanoparticles into cells,making them ideal drug targeting ligands.Organic nanomaterials have excellent application value in nanodrug delivery system because of their good biocompatibility and degradability.In this paper,the recent research progress of aptamers and organic nanomaterials drug delivery systems was reviewed.

Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL) is the subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma with high heterogeneity and invasiveness. Though most ENKTCL patients are present as early-stage at diagnosis, clinical prognosis significantly differs due to the limitations of clinical staging. Radiotherapy (RT) and chemotherapy (CT) are the first-line treatments for early ENKTCL patients. However, there is no consensus on the combined modalities of RT and CT, and their optimal strategy. With the continuous renewal of clinical staging and prognostic models, early-stage ENKTCL patients tend to accept risk-adapted treatment with proper stratification. In this review, the latest research progresses on clinical staging, prognostic models and treatment were retrospectively analyzed, aiming to provide references for clinical decision-making.
