Objective To explore the effect of BPDE on the expression of N-Ras in the human bronchial epithelial cell line. Methods The levels of mRNA and protein expression in BPDE transformed 16HBE cells(16HBE-T) and untransformed control 16HBE cells(16HBE-N) were examined by using RT-PCR and Western blot. Locations and expression levels of protein in both kinds of cells were analyzed by immunocytochemical method. Results Compared with 16HBE-N, the levels of mRNA and protein of N-Ras significantly increased to 3.616 and 1.600 times in 16HBE-T. Immunocytochemical method showed N-Ras protein in 16HBE-T and 16HBE-N expressed in the cytomembrane and cytoplasm, but the expression level of protein in 16HBE-T was significantly higher than that in 16HBE-N. Conclusion The up-regulated expression of N-Ras oncogene may play an important role in the malignant transformation of 16HBE induced by BPDE

Objective:
To investigate the awareness, sexual behavior characteristics and infection status of AIDS among male floating population in Anhui Province, so as to provide insights into formulating prevention and control measures for male floating population.
Methods:
Male floating population of three occupations including construction workers, enterprise workers, and business operators in Wuhu, Tongling, Hefei, and Fuyang cities were selected using stratified cluster random method from April to August 2021. Demographic information, knowledge of AIDS and high-risk behaviors were collected through questionnaires surveys. The results of HIV, syphilis and hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody testing were collected through laboratory tests. Awareness rate of AIDS knowledge, sexual behavior characteristics, and positive rates of HIV, syphilis, and HCV among male floating population of different occupations were analyzed.
Results:
A total of 1 616 people were enrolled, including 1 016 construction workers (62.87%), 253 enterprise workers (15.66%) and 347 business operators (21.47%), and had a mean age of (40.63±12.32) years. The overall awareness rate of AIDS knowledge among male floating population was 89.54%, the awareness rates of business operators, construction workers, and enterprise workers were 98.33%, 88.29% and 82.61%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The proportions of consistent condom use during sexual intercourse with a spouse or cohabitant, during commercial sexual encounters, and with casual partners in the past year were 7.15% (91/1 273), 64.00% (16/25) and 50.00% (8/16), respectively. The proportions of construction workers, enterprise workers, and business operators who used condoms every time they had sexual behavior with their spouses/cohabitants in the past year were 4.54%, 11.63%, and 15.60%, respectively, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). One case of HIV, one case of syphilis, and three cases of HCV antibody were detected.
Conclusion
The overall awareness rate of AIDS knowledge among the male floating population in Anhui Province is relatively high, but unsafe sex behaviors exist, which may lead to the risk of HIV infection.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the intervention effect of oral immunotherapy (OIT) on ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) of premature infants.Methods:This study searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, Chinese Biomedical Literature Service System, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) , WanFang Database and VIP Database, and conducted a comprehensive search for randomized controlled trials of OIT applied to premature infants published from database establishment to October 2020. Two researchers independently screened literature, extracted data, and evaluated methodological quality. RevMan 5.3 software was used for Meta-analysis.Results:A total of 8 studies were included, with a total of 351 premature infants in the intervention group and 352 premature infants in the control group. Meta-analysis results showed that OIT could reduce the incidence of VAP in premature infants [ RR=0.36, 95% CI (0.23-0.56) , P<0.05] and the detection rate of pathogenic microorganisms in the tracheal tube [ RR=0.33, 95% CI (0.18-0.59) , P=0.000 2], and could shorten the length of hospital stay [ MD=-6.70, 95% CI (-13.34--0.06) , P=0.05]. However, there was no statistically significant difference in the mechanical ventilation time, detection rate of oropharyngeal pathogenic microorganisms and mortality rate between the two groups after the intervention (all P>0.05) . Conclusions:OIT can reduce the incidence of VAP in premature infants and the detection rate of pathogenic microorganisms in the tracheal tube, and shorten the length of hospital stay to a certain extent. However, high-quality, large-sample, multi-center randomized controlled studies are still needed for further verification in the future.

Objective:To compare the clinical characteristics and prognosis of bacterial liver abscess in patients with or without diabetes mellitus (DM), to provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:Patients with bacterial liver abscesses hospitalized in Tongren Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2016 to August 2021 were enrolled, and their clinical data were collected. The patients were divided into diabetic and non-diabetic groups for comparison according to whether they had comorbid DM. Statistical analysis was performed by chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test, and multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 131 patients with bacterial liver abscesses were included, including 47 cases in the diabetic group and 84 cases in the non-diabetic group. The percentages of platelet count <100×10 9/L, C-reactive protein>10 mg/L, and total bilirubin>17.5 μmol/L were lower in the diabetic group than that in the non-diabetic group, and the differences were all statistically significant ( χ2=3.90, 6.44 and 5.56, respectively, all P<0.05). The percentage of multiple abscesses in the diabetic group was 10.6%(5/47), which was lower than 29.8%(25/84) in the non-diabetic group, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6.24, P=0.012). The positive rate of pus culture for Klebsiella pneumoniae was 64.9%(24/37) in the diabetic group, which was higher than 41.5%(27/65) in the non-diabetic group, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=5.13, P=0.023). The incidences of pleural effusion and abscesses at other sites in the diabetic group were 29.8%(14/47) and 10.6%(5/47), respectively, which were both higher than 14.3%(12/84) and 1.2%(1/84) in the non-diabetic group, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=4.55, Fisher′s exact test, both P<0.05). The proportion of hospital stays>21 d was 34.0%(16/47) in the diabetic group, which was higher than 16.7%(14/84) in the non-diabetic group, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=5.15, P=0.023). DM (odds ratio ( OR)=2.654, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 1.020 to 6.907, P=0.046) and abscess maximum diameter>10 cm ( OR=11.045, 95% CI 4.493 to 27.154, P<0.001) were significant risk factors for hospital stay>21 d. Conclusions:Bacterial liver abscesses combined with DM are more common with single abscess, a higher rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection, and more likely to develop pleural effusions and abscesses at other sites. Liver abscesses>10 cm in maximum diameter and comorbid DM would prolong hospital stay.

Objective:To investigate the genetic subtypes and drug resistance monitoring of newly reported human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection/AIDS virus in Anhui Province from 2020 to 2023.Methods:An observational design study was used to collect blood samples from patients diagnosed with HIV/AIDS in the AIDS Prevention and Control Department of Anhui Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention from January 2020 to December 2023.The HIV-1 pol gene was amplified by reverse transcription-nested PCR, and the genetic subtypes were identified by phylogenetic tree analysis using MEGA 7.0 software. The mutation sites of drug resistance were analyzed by the online software tool of Stanford University′s HIV Drug resistance database. The influencing factors of drug resistance before treatment were analyzed by multivariate logistic analysis.Results:A total of 335 plasma samples were collected, and 332 HIV-1 pol gene sequences were obtained successfully. The main gene subtypes were CRF01-AE, accounting for 35.55% (118/332), followed by CRF07-BC, B and B+C types [29.22% (97/332), 11.74% (39/332), 9.93% (33/332)]. The total drug resistance rate before treatment was 30.12%(32/100), and the drug resistance rate of protease inhibitor (PIs) in HIV-1 was 6.33% (21/332). The drug resistance rate of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) before treatment was 6.33% (21/332). The drug resistance rate of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) before treatment was 17.47% (58/332).The comparison of drug resistance rate of different drug types showed statistical significance ( χ2=30.435, P<0.05).Among the 100 cases of drug resistance, the main mutation point of HIV-1 protease inhibitor was Q58E (21.00%), and the main mutation point of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor was M184V/I (6.00%). Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor resistance mutation points mainly K103N (22.00%).There were statistically significant differences in the starting time of antiviral therapy, the number of CD4 +T cells at baseline and the drug resistance rate of gene subtypes (the chi-square values are respectively 24.152, 32.516, 11.652, P<0.05).Multivariate logistic analysis showed that the baseline CD4 +T cell count was <200/μl, subtype B, subtype B+C, CRF01-AE subtype, CRF55-01B subtype and 01-BC subtype was the influential factor of drug resistance before treatment (the chi-square values are respectively 4.577, 8.202, 4.416, 5.206, 7.603 and 4.804, P<0.05). Conclusion:The newly reported HIV/AIDS population in Anhui Province from 2020 to 2023 has a variety of viral gene subtypes, and NNRTIs are the main types of drug resistance gene mutations before treatment. Attention should be paid to the number of baseline CD4 +T cells, the duration of antiviral treatment, and the distribution of gene subtypes to reduce the drug resistance of HIV/AIDS patients before treatment.
