Transition metal oxide ZnO nanoparticles as inorganic matrix was adopted in the matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry ( MALDI-TOF-MS ) analysis of small molecule compounds including sugars and stearic acid and its performances were investigated. In addition, the feasibility of metal ion selective ionization of L-arginine by using NiO and CuO nanoparticles as matrix directly was explored initially. In the experiment, the analyte and nanoparticle suspension were mixed on the sample plate. The crystal of analyte and matrix was excited by 337 nm laser after the solvent was evaporated, and then detected under reflection mode of TOF-MS. The results indicated that ZnO nanoparticles with high UV absorption could eliminate the interference of conventional matrix, simplify the mass spectra, and enhance the peak intensity of stearic acid under negative mode. Moreover, Cu+ ion selective ionization of L-arginine was achieved in comparison of CuO and NiO as matrix for MALDI-TOF-MS analysis of L-arginine.

A rapid and convenient ultra high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS / MS) method for analysis of ribavirin and its two main kinds of metabolites, 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide (TCONH2 ) and 1-β-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylic acid (RTCOOH), in fresh eggs has been developed and validated. The sample was extracted with acetonitrile water (9 ∶ 1, V/ V), added N-hexane to move liposoluble substances, after centrifugation, the upper solvent was cleaned-up by C18 and GCB, then determined by UPLC-MS / MS coupled with Agilent ZORBAX SB-Aq column (100 mm×3. 0 mm, 1. 8 μm). Over the concentration range of 2. 0-200. 0 μg / L (0. 5-200. 0 μg / L and 5. 0-200. 0 μg / L) for ribavirin (TCONH2 and RTCOOH) in fresh egg matrix, the correlation coefficients (R2 ) of the calibration curves were above 0. 99, and the limits of detection (LODs) were 0. 54 μg / L (0. 09 and 1. 54 μg / L). The limits of quantitation (LOQs) were 1. 79, 0. 31 and 5. 13 μg / L, respectively. At three spiked concentration levels of 5. 0, 10. 0 and 50. 0 μg / L, the recoveries of ribavirin and RTCOOH ranged from 96. 1% to 99. 6%and 42. 9% to 58. 3% . And at three spiked concentration levels of 0. 5, 2. 0 and 5. 0 μg / L, the recoveries of TCONH2 ranged from 75. 9% to 106. 7% . The results of the determination in various real samples showed that the method is simple, accurate, rapid and suitable determination of ribavirin and its two main kinds of metabolites in fresh eggs.

Objective: To understand the status and related knowledge requirements of health emergency literacy among college students in Shaanxi Province, so as to provide the basis for improving college students health emergency literacy. Methods: A total of 2 723 students from 18 colleges and universities in Shaanxi Province were selected by multi stage random sampling and simple random sampling methods in November 2023, and the survey of health literacy in emergency and knowledge requirements of health emergency literacy was conducted. Statistical analysis was carried out by using χ 2 test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, Kruskal-Wallis H test and Logistic regression analysis. Results: About 28.98% of the surveyed college students had a high level of health emergency literacy, which varied by students whether being only one child, whether having left behind experience, with different personality types, whether being student cadres, and with different frequencies of community or social activities ( χ 2=9.15, 7.90, 32.73, 16.29 , 120.25, P <0.05). The equivalence scores of the four dimensions of health emergency literacy from high to low were poisoning and nuclear and radiation (0.84), medical rescue (0.83), infectious disease (0.82), and basic knowledge and behavior ( 0.77 ). Logistic regression analysis found that college students with left-behind experience were negatively correlated with health emergency literacy and its four dimensions ( OR =0.74, 0.72, 0.80, 0.80, 0.83), while personality type (rational type), community or social activity frequency were positively correlated with the cognitive levels of health emergency literacy and its four dimensions among college students ( OR =1.57, 1.50, 1.33, 1.27, 1.38)( P <0.05). There was a higher level of basic knowledge and behavioral cognition among only child college students ( OR =3.73), and female students had a higher level of health emergency literacy, as well as awareness of infectious disease outbreaks and medical rescue ( OR =1.21, 1.28, 1.21)( P <0.05). The radar map showed that the level of health emergency literacy was positive development radar map. About 67.68 % of the students had a high willingness to acquire health emergency literacy knowledge, and the demand for basic health emergency knowledge and behavioral knowledge was the highest (52.37%). Conclusions College students have insufficient health emergency literacy, but they have the highest demand for health emergency. Publicity and education should be strengthened for students with left behind experience, irrational type, and low frequency of community or social activities.

【Objective】 To explore the effect of UBE2I and FCGR1A gene expressions on the incidence of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) combined with active pulmonary tuberculosis (APTB), so as to provide basis for disease monitoring. 【Methods】 A total of 98 AIDS patients combined with APTB and 84 AIDS patients combined with latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) were selected from the validated whole genome transcriptome dataset (GSE37250). The top 30 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the two groups of patients were screened. We established the PPI interaction network, transcription factor-differentially expressed gene (TF-DEG), DEG-miRNA, and environmental chemical regulation network of the top 30 DEGs. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of 11 key DEGs were plotted and Logistic regression analysis was performed. 【Results】 There were 6 054 DEGs in the two groups of patients, and UBE2I was an important core node of the PPI interaction network. FCGR1A had the best predictive and indicative ability for AIDS combined with APTB. Univariate Logistic regression showed that high expressions of UBE2I and FCGR1A were risk factors for AIDS combined with APTB (P<0.05). The regulatory network showed that VEGFB was a key gene in the TF-DEG network, participating in regulation with transcription factors such as SEPT9 and SMAD5. It targeted miRNAs such as hsa-mir-17-5p and hsa-mir-20a-5p, and was affected by environmental chemicals such as valproic acid and copper sulfate. 【Conclusion】 VEGFB plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AIDS combined with APTB. The abnormally high expressions of UBE2I and FCGR1A are associated with the disease progression of AIDS combined with APTB. The disease condition can be monitored by detecting the expression level of UBE2I and FCGR1A.
