Polyporus Umbellatus polysaccharide(PUP) is a new medicine made by our institute. A model of aged mice was prepared by placing 2-month mice in an ozone circumstance (O_3 conoentration 1. 298 ppm) for 10 days. After the aged mice was fed with PUP for 10 days, the average body weight, body temperature and thymus coefficient can be increased to normal level, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity of red cells and catalase activity of liver were increased, and liver lipoperoxide (LOP) reduced. It is suggested that PUP may be a good anti-aging agent.

According to the study experience when the author was invited as a visiting scholar in Edinburgh Napier University,also based on the further discussion with local research team members of stroke,the author would like to introduce the multidisciplinary research team with same professional field being established in Scotland,finally in order to give us inspiration how to develop an efficient,long-term and stable research team in China,and which model whether local universities innovative research team or innovative regional research team is much more suitable for our country.The author had participated in stroke team research activities during the Edinburgh Napier University visit;and have some basic understanding to their research ideas and patterns of work after communication and exchanging ideas with team members.Particularly,multidisciplinary research collaboration model based on voluntary organization across entire Scotland is worth to learn for us.It also would inspire the university research terms in their construction in China.

Objective To study the diagnostic value of Japan narrow band imaging expert team ( JNET) classification for differentiating pathological type of colorectal lesions. Methods A total of 418 colorectal lesions were retrospectively diagnosed by magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging ( ME-NBI) using JNET classification by two inexperienced doctors after a short time of training in JNET classification. Then lesions were diagnosed with Sano classification by the two doctors. Diagnostic results were compared with histologic findings as a golden standard. Results The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of JNET classification and Sano classification for neoplastic lesion differentiation were 98. 2% VS 98. 5%, 77. 8% VS 66. 7%, and 96. 9% VS 96. 4%, respectively ( all P>0. 05 ) . These indicators for diagnosing cancerous lesions, including high grade intraepithelial neoplasia, intramucosal carcinoma and submucosal carcinoma, were 66. 7% VS 80. 2% ( P=0. 023) , 87. 6% VS 79. 5% ( P=0. 006) , and 82. 1% VS 79. 7%( P=0. 379 ) , respectively, and those for predicting submucosal deep invasive cancers were 34. 8% VS 39. 1%, 100. 0% VS 99. 0%, and 96. 4% VS 96. 3%, respectively ( all P>0. 05) . The diagnostic accuracy of JNET classification for differentiating neoplastic lesions were 95. 2% in those with diameter <10 mm, 97. 0% in 10~<20 mm, and 97. 8% in ≥20 mm (P=0. 483), this finding were 95. 2%, 85. 1% and 72. 1% for cancer, respectively ( P<0. 0001 ) , and 100%, 96. 3%, and 94. 4% for submucosal deep invasive cancer, respectively (P=0. 026). Shape and location of colorectal lesions showed no significant effect on the diagnostic efficacy of JNET classification. Conclusion JNET classification is valuable for doctors without experience of ME-NBI in diagnosing colorectal lesions and the efficiency is slightly superior to Sano classification. However, the accuracy of diagnosis for cancer with diameter ≥20 mm need to be improved.

【Objective】 To analyze nutrition-related factors that affect the prevalence of myopia in adolescents, in order to provide reference for primary prevention of myopia. 【Methods】 A stratified sampling method was used to select 385 adolescents from Zhengding County in October 2021. Adolescents in this study took vision testing, physical examination and completed a questionnaire survey. One-way analysis of variance and lasso regression were used to screen the variables, and Logistic regression was used to determine the possible influencing factors of myopia. Factor analysis was adopted to extract the dietary patterns of adolescents in Zhengding County, then the association between dietary patterns and myopia was analyzed. 【Results】 A total of 385 adolescents were surveyed, with the prevalence rate of myopia of about 68.6%. Multivariate analysis revealed that fried food(OR=8.480, 95%CI:1.058 - 67.971) was a risk factor for myopia, while intake of milk and dairy products(OR=0.994, 95%CI:0.991 - 0.999), soybeans and nuts(OR=0.997, 95%CI:0.994 - 0.999), no myopia in either parent(OR=0.312, 95%CI:0.115 - 0.845), physical education class 4 times per week(OR=0.269, 95%CI:0.074 - 0.984) were statistically associated with a lower risk of myopia(P<0.05). Three dietary patterns was extracted through factor analysis, including diversified dietary pattern, soy-hybrid dietary pattern, and snack and beverage dietary pattern. Logistic analysis results indicated that soy-hybrid dietary pattern(OR=0.85, 95%CI:0.73 - 0.99,P<0.05) was statistically associated with myopia. 【Conclusions】 The problem of myopia among adolescents in Zhengding County is more serious. Increasing the intake of milk and dairy products, soybeans and nuts, reducing the intake of fried foods, and adjusting the overall dietary structure should be recommended in order to prevent the development of myopia in adolescents.
