Objective　To compare the changes in the genetic diversity of Anopheles minimus through the research on the population genetic characteristics of Anopheles minimus between different years in Nabang Town, Yingjiang County, Yunnan Province. Methods Anopheles mosquitoes were collected by light traps in Nabang Town, Yingjiang County, Yunnan Province in May 2014 and May 2021. After morphological identification, each mosquito was individually stored in separate tubes for further analysis. DNA of Anopheles minimus was extracted using kits. Microsatellite sequences in the template DNA were amplified using eight pairs of fluorescent primers, and the resulting products were subjected to capillary electrophoresis by a sequencing company. PopGen32 software was used to calculate the observed number of alleles (Na), effective number of alleles (Ne), observed heterozygosity (Ho), expected heterozygosity (He), and Shannon's information index (I) for individual microsatellite loci and population groups. PIC-CALC software was used to calculate the polymorphic information content (PIC). Results A total of 158 mosquitoes belonging to 6 Anopheles species were captured in 2014, while 529 mosquitoes belonging to 5 Anopheles species were captured in 2021. The composition ratio of Anopheles minimus among the mosquito species differed significantly between 2014 and 2021 (χ2=70.48, P<0.01). For 8 microsatellite loci, a total of 85 alleles were detected, a range of 6-20 alleles per locus and an average of 10.625 alleles. Ne ranged from 1.717 to 7.797, with an average of 4.011. The highest PIC was found in the am4 locus, and the lowest in the am25 locus. For the population groups, 77 alleles were found in 2014, and 62 alleles were found in 2021. Ne ranged from 1.630 to 8.658, with an average of 4.147 in 2014. Ne ranged from 1.760 to 6.744, with an average of 3.698 in 2021. The average Ho was 0.641 in 2014 and 0.650 in 2021, while the average He was 0.699 in 2014 and 0.691 in 2021. The Shannon's index ranged from 0.774 to 2.493 in 2014, with an average of 1.579, and from 0.938 to 2.224 in 2021, with an average of 1.464. Na, Ne, I, and PIC were all higher in 2014 compared to 2021, with Na: 9.625>7.750, Ne: 4.147>3.698, I: 1.579>1.464, and PIC: 0.655>0.640, respectively. Conclusions The populations of Anopheles minimus in Nabang Town, Yingjiang County, exhibited high levels of polymorphism in both 2014 and 2021. However, the genetic diversity of the population in 2021 was lower than that in 2014.

Objective To explore the effect of D-galactose(D-gal) on murine pancreatic injury and its pathogenesis.Methods C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group and D-gal model group [D-gal 120 mg/(kg · d) for 42 days].On the 2nd day after drug injection completed,the peripheral blood was taken for measuring the level of fasting blood glucose(FBG) and fasting insulin(FINS);and then the organ index of pancreas was calculated by the ratio of pancreatic wet weight(mg) and mouse body weight(g);HE stain was routinely prepared to observe the histologic structure of pancreatic tissue;the TEM was used to analyze ultrastructural changes of pancreatic cells;the pancreatic frozen sections were prepared to test senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) and its relative absorbance(RA) of positively stained cells in the pancreatic islets;immunohistochemistry assays to study advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and its RA;pancreas tissue homogenate was made to detect the content of superoxide dismutase(SOD),malonaldehyde(MDA) and total antioxidant capacity(T-AOC).Results In D-gal group mice,the FBG increased(P＜0.05) and FINS reduced;pancreas wet weight and organ increased obviously (P＜0.01);light microscopic structure of the pancreas presented without typical pathologic change,however the single nucleated cell's area within the islet was increased significantly(P＜0.05);the pancreas endocrine and exocrine cells were showed the ultrastructure damaged and lipofuscin formation increased;the RA of positive pancreas cells in SA-β-gal staining increased(P＜0.05);the RA of AGEs positive regional expression markedly increased (P＜0.01);the content of SOD and T-AOC decreased (P ＜ 0.05),the content of MDA increased (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Aging mice model replicated by D-gal can cause the pancreatic injury,its mechanisms may be closely related to oxidative injury of pancreatic cells caused by D-gal.

Objective The goal of this study is to compare the prognosis of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) thrombolysis for middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion with patients with good and poor cerebral collateral circulation.Methods This retrospective study included 49 patients diagnosed with acute MCA occlusion and treated with rt-PA in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between October 1,2014 and February 1,2016.Patients were divided into good collaterals group (n =31) and poor collaterals group (n =18) according to their distribution of leptomeningeal arteries with CTA.Thirty day mortality rate,the incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage,24h and 30 day Stroke scores with National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) were compared between the two groups.Corrected chi-squared test,Fisher's exact test,or t test was used to statistical analysis as appropriate.Results The 30 day mortality rate of good collaterals group was significantly lower than that of poor collaterals group (0％ vs.16.7％,P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and 24h NIHSS score between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05),however,30 day NIHSS score of good collaterals group was significantly lower than that of poor collaterals group (7.2 ± 3.1 vs.9.6 ± 2.7,P ＜ O.05).Conclusion For patients with MCA occlusion and receiving intravenous thrombolysis,good cerebral collateral circulation may reduce their mortality and improve their clinical outcome after thrombolysis.However,good cerebral collateral circulation does not reduce the risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage in those patients.

Local medical college is the mainstream of altitude medical college education in our country.Facing furious competition,we must make a reasonable orientation,construct the characteristics of running school,establish scientific concept,construct specific subject and specialty and make an all-around development in order to walk up to national stage by depending on powerful unity,serve the regional economy and social development,and form a new situation of two patterns by converting single medical colleges to all-around college and remaining the existing single medical college.

Objective To investigate the significance of glomerular deposition of C4d in accessing the severity and prognosis of IgA nephropathy. Methods A total of 131 patients were recruited for the study. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the deposition of C4d in renal tissue of pa?tients with IgA nephropathy,and the relationship between C4d deposition and clinical and pathological parameters and renal remission was ana?lyzed. Results Totally 30 patients had glomerular deposition of C4d. Compared with the patients without C4d deposition,the patients with C4d deposition had significantly higher levels of serum creatinine,urinary protein excretion and C4d and higher prevalence of hypertension,but had sig?nificantly decreased levels of glomerular filtration rates. With the histopathological phenotypes segregated by Lee 's classification,the ratios of C4d deposition presented an increase(P=0.005). The patients with C4d deposition had more severe mesangial proliferation,endocapillary hypercellu?larity,segmental glomerulosclerosis and tubular?interstitial injury. The rates of renal remission were significantly lower in IgA nephropathy patients with C4d deposition than those without C4d deposition(P<0.001). Conclusion IgA nephropathy patients with C4d deposition have more se?vere clinical and pathological manifestations and lower rate of renal remission. Glomerular C4d deposition is expected to be an important pathologi?cal prognostic factor for predicting the prognosis of IgA nephropathy.

Objective:To study the mechanism of moxibustion therapy on diabetic peripheral neuropathy for the peripheral neuroprotection.Methods:The DPN model was induced by intraperitoneal injection with streptozotocin (STZ).The rats were given moxibustion at the acupoint Yishu (Extra) and the acupoint Zusanli (ST 36).The treatment was carried out once a day and 15 minutes per acupoint,lasting for 56 d in total.The clinical effect of moxibustion was evaluated by detecting blood sugar,urine sugar,body weight and dietary intakes,as well as nerve conduction velocity with neuroelectrophysiological method.The structure variation of sciatic nerve was observed by HE staining and light microscopy,and the level of NGF in the sciatic nerve Was determined by ELISA.Results:Compared with the model group,the plasma glucose was significantly lower in the moxibustion group (P＜0.01),with significantly faster nerve conduction velocity (P＜0.01),more notably changes in pathological appearance (P＜0.01) and higher level of nerve growth factor (NGF)(P＜0.01).Conclusion:Moxibustion could improve the symptom and signs of peripheral neuropathy in rat models with DPN,which may relate to the increased NGF and enhanced peripheral nerve protection.

BACKGROUND: Imidacloprid has been commonly used as a pesticide for crop protection and acts as nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonists. Little information about the relationship between imidacloprid and allergy is available. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to examine the effects of imidacoprid on IgE-mediated mast cell activation. METHODS: The rat basophilic leukemia cell line RBL-2H3 (RBL-2H3 cells) were treated with 10⁻³ – 10⁻¹² mol/L imidacloprid, followed by measuring the mediator production, influx of Ca²⁺ in IgE-activated RBL-2H3 cells, and the possible effects of imidacoprid on anti-dinitrophenyl IgE-induced passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA). RESULTS: It was shown that imidacoprid suppressed the production of histamine, β-hexosaminidase, leukotriene C4, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, and Ca²⁺ mobilization in IgE-activated RBL-2H3 cells and decreased vascular extravasation in IgE-induced PCA. CONCLUSION: It is the first time to show that imidacloprid suppressed the activation of RBL-2H3 cells.

A 3-year-6-month-old boy presented with multiple asymptomatic banded white macules at birth, which expanded in proportion to his body, and deformity of his right thumb with slight dyskinesia. The patient showed difficulty in communication and concentration compared with children of the same age. The family history was unremarkable. The child had clear consciousness, passable spirits, and poor language ability. Physical examination revealed a special face and slight macrodactyly of the right thumb joints, and the heart, lung, and abdominal examination was otherwise normal. Skin examination showed multiple banded or confluent irregular white macules of varying sizes and slightly elevated plaques distributed along the Blaschko′s lines on the right chest, the flexor aspect of the right upper limb, the median line of the lower abdomen, and the right lower limbs, and banded brown macules on the palmar side of the right hand and radial aspect of the right thumb. Histopathological findings of the while macule on the lower limb were consistent with basaloid follicular hamartoma. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging revealed agenesis of the corpus callosum. Whole-exome sequencing of the lesional tissue showed a mutation c.1234C>T (p.L412F) in the SMO gene, which was not found in his parents. A diagnosis of Curry-Jones syndrome was made based on the skin lesions, and pathological and genetic findings. The mutation c.1234C>T (p.L412F) in the SMO gene may contribute to the disease. The patient continued functional exercises to improve the mobility of his right thumb, and underwent a close follow-up.

Objective To explore the impact of case teaching in small group and case assessment pattern on nursing undergraduates′ autonomous learning competency in intensive training of nursing skill. Methods Nursing skill intensive training implemented in grade 2011 students with fixed group case teaching and case exam as groups was conducted before undergraduate clinical practice. Nursing undergraduates were evaluated by Lin Yi′s Measure Scale of Autonomous Learning Competencies of Nursing Undergraduates before and after the training and the students′autonomous learning competency compared before and after the training. Results With the implementation of group case teaching and exam pattern, nursing undergraduates′total score of self-learning was (88. 31 ± 9. 29) while the scores of self-learning ability dimensions and cooperative learning skill dimensions were (32. 40 ± 3. 71) and (21. 90 ± 3. 16), which all were higher than the scores before implementation (t= -13. 970, -12. 023, -9. 981;P<0. 01). Conclusions Case teaching method and case examination as a group can enhance nursing undergraduates′interests in learning and their self-learning ability, which are worthy of further promotion.
