Objective To study the function of LSD1 in the development of neurons and the influence of LSD1 on mood and memory-related behavior in mice. Methods The LSD1(flox / flox) transgenic mice were crossed with Nestin?cre(Tg) transgenic mice, using Cre?LoxP recombination system, to generate LSD1 conditional knockout of neural stem cell ( LSD1?CKO) mice, LSD1(flox/ flox) Nestin?cre(Tg) mice, and LSD1(flox/ flox) mice as control. The neuron proliferation in LSD1?CKO mice was further detected by immunofluorescence staining. At the same time, the mood and memory?related behavior of LSD1?CKO mice were examined using several methods:sucrose preference test ( SPT) , forced swimming test ( FST) and novel?object recognition ( NOR) assay. Results In the LSD1 brain?specific CKO mice, the neuron proliferation rate in the hippocampus was significantly reduced ( P=0. 023 ) , the preference for sucrose was reduced ( P =0. 0075 ) , immobility duration during the forced swimming test was increased (P<0. 05), and LSD1?CKO mice also exhibits memory?decline (P=0. 0019) during the novel?object recognition test. Conclusions Depletion of LSD1 in mouse brain neural stem cells leads to significant reduction of the neuron proliferation in the hippocampus. LSD1?CKO mice show more negative emotions and memory impairment.

Objective:To investigate the triggering factors of ischemic stroke and their correlation with stroke severity and traditional risk factors.Methods:The clinical data of patients with ischemic stroke within 2 weeks of the onset were collected retrospectively. They were divided into two groups according to the questionnaire of triggering factors. The demographic and baseline data of the two groups were compared. According to the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, the patients were divided into low NIHSS score group (≤8) and high NIHSS score group (>8). The demographic and baseline data were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent related factors of the existence of triggering factors in patients with ischemic stroke and the correlation between the existence of triggering factors and the severity of stroke. Results:A total of 217 patients were enrolled in the study. Their age was 63.4±12.8 years and 148 were male (68.2%). One hundred and nine patients had at least one triggering factor. Common triggering factors were sleep disorders (46.8%), infection (18.4%), and missed medication (13.8%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors, diabetes mellitus (odds ratio [ OR]2.496, 95% confidence interval [ CI]1.347-4.626; P=0.047), large artery atherosclerosis ( vs. small vessel occlusion: OR 2.168, 95% CI 1.060-4.343; P=0.034) and baseline NIHSS score (the fourth quartile vs. the first quartile: OR 2.320, 95% CI 1.043-5.162; P=0.039) were independently associated with the existence of triggering factors in patients with ischemic stroke, and any of the triggering factors was independently associated with stroke severity ( OR 2.042, 95% CI 1.106-3.770; P=0.023). Conclusion:Diabetes and the severity of stroke are associated with the existence of triggering factors in patients with ischemic stroke. Stroke severity in ischemic stroke patients with triggering factors is more severe.

BACKGROUND:
The aim of this study is to explore the pathogenic bacteria type, distribution, drug resistance and influencing factors of nosocomial pulmonary infection in patients with lung cancer during chemotherapy.
METHODS:
This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 411 patients with lung cancer who were hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University Medical College from January 2017 to December 2018, and counted the incidence of nosocomial lung infection, pathogens, drug resistance and influencing factors.
RESULTS:
There were 184 cases of nosocomial pulmonary infection in 411 lung cancer patients during chemotherapy, the infection rate was 44.77%. The isolated pathogens included Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria, viruses, fungi and tuberculosis, among which Gram-negative bacteria accounted for 37.25%, followed by virus infection, accounting for 15.69%. Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae are the main Gram-negative bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae are the common gram-positive bacteria, influenza B virus is the main virus, Candida and Aspergillus are the most common fungi. The resistance rate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to imipenem was 26.67%, while that of Klebsiella pneumoniae to imipenem was 12.50%, and that of the main Gram-positive bacteria to vancomycin was 0.00%. Hypoproteinemia, long chemotherapy cycle, high-intensity chemotherapy, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and basic bronchiectasis were the high risk factors of lung cancer patients with nosocomial pulmonary infection during chemotherapy (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
During the chemotherapy of lung cancer patients with nosocomial pulmonary infection, the distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria have certain characteristics. Clinicians should strengthen the detection of pathogenic bacteria and their drug resistance. On the basis of symptomatic treatment, to achieve the purpose of ensuring the treatment effect and prolonging the survival period of patients, preventive measures should be taken for high-risk patients to reduce the chemotherapy cycle and intensity as much as possible to reduce the incidence of infection life.
