Objective To assess the association of three polymorphisms in Megsin (rs1055901,rs1055902 and rs2689399) and susceptibility of IgA nephropathy in Asian population.Methods We conducted a comprehensive search of electronic CNKI,VIP,WangFang Data,CBM,Pubmed,Web of Science and Google Scholar database on the association between Megsin rs1055901,rs1055902 and rs2689399 polymorphism and susceptibility of IgA nephrology in Asian population (last search update on 2 May 2016).Stata 12.0 software was used to calculate the odds ratio (OR) and 95 ％ CI (confidence interval),as well as sensitivity and publication bias analyses.Results Six publications encompassing mine case-control studies were finally included,including 2 179 cases and 1 769 controls.Finally,no significant association between Megsin rs1055901 and rs1055902 polymorphism and IgA nephrology in Asian population was identified,while a significantly decreased risk of IgA nephrology for rs2689399 polymorphism,was identified in Asian population (G and C:OR=0.754,95％CI 0.592-0.961,P=0.022;GG and CC:OR=0.506,95％CI 0.287-0.892,P=0.019;GG and GC+CC:OR=0.551,95％CI 0.316-0.961,P=0.036).Conclusion Rs2689399 G allele and GG genotype of Megsin may be the protective factors for IgA nephropathy in Asian population.

Objective:To explore the related risk factors of antepartum depression and anxiety,and to provide the theoretical support for early screening,clinical intervention and prevention of antepartum depression and anxiety.Methods:At the time of 28 weeks of prenatal examination,the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EP-DS),Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS)were used to survey 2112 pregnant women who were selected from Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Kunming City.Non conditional logistic regression analysis was used to explore the re-lated risk factors of prenatal depression and anxiety.Results:At the 28 weeks of pregnancy,the detection rate of de-pression symptoms and anxiety symptoms were 25.4% and 6.6%.Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors for perinatal depression symptoms were younger age (OR =0.80,95%CI:0.68 -0.94),not stick to work during pregnancy (OR =1.18,95%CI:1.02 -1.36),not satisfied with the living environment (OR =1.50,95%CI:1.23 -1.83),expectations for boys (OR =0.86,95%CI:0.77 -0.96),not only daughter (OR =1.37,95%CI:1.06 -1.76),unplanned pregnancy (OR =1.38,95%CI:1.10 -1.72).The risk factors for perinatal anxiety symp-toms were being not satisfied with the living environment (OR =1.64,95%CI:1.19 -2.26),not harmonious with her husband (OR =2.01,95%CI:1.20 -3.37),unplanned pregnancy (OR =1.50,95%CI:1.05 -2.14).Conclu-sion:It suggests that the pregnant women with younger age,less working during pregnancy,being not satisfied with the living environment,having more expectations for boys,being not only daughter,with unplanned pregnancy are more likely to suffer from antepartum depression;those being not satisfied with living environment,having harmoni-ous relation with her husband,and with unplanned pregnancy are more likely to suffer from antepartum anxiety.

Background::Many studies have emphasized that selective resection of epileptic lesions in temoral lobe is associated with better preservation of cognition function; whether this applies to patients with refractory mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) remains unknown. The objective of this study was to evaluate changes in cognitive functions, mood status, and quality of life after anterior temporal lobectomy in patients with refractory MTLE.Methods::This single-arm cohort study assessed cognitive function, mood status, and quality of life, as well as electroencephalography findings, in patients with refractory MTLE who underwent anterior temporal lobectomy at Xuanwu Hospital from January 2018 to March 2019. Pre- and post-operative characteristics were compared to evaluate the effects of surgery.Results::Anterior temporal lobectomy significantly reduced the frequencies of epileptiform discharges. The overall success rate of surgery was acceptable. Anterior temporal lobectomy did not result in significant changes in overall cognitive functions (P > 0.05), although changes in certain domains, including visuospatial ability, executive ability, and abstract thinking, were detected. Anterior temporal lobectomy resulted in improvements in anxiety and depression symptoms and quality of life. Conclusions::Anterior temporal lobectomy reduced epileptiform discharges and incidence of post-operative seizures as well as resulted in improved mood status and quality of life without causing significant changes in cognitive function.

Objective To explore a method to generate regulatory dendritic cells (DCregs) from murine bone marrow induced by 5-Aminolevulinic acid combined with ferrous iron (ALA/SFC).Methods Bone marrow cells were obtained from male C57BL/6 mice.To generate conventional DCs (BM-DCcons),the ceils were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10％ FCS,10 ng/mL GM-CSF,10 ng/mL IL-4 for 7 days.The cells were collected for the analysis.To generate DCregs by ALA/SFC,the cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10％ FCS,20 ng/mL GM-CSF,5-ALA 1 mmol/L + SFC 0.5 mmol/L for 7 days.The morphology of ALA-DCregs was observed by microscope and eytospin with May-Grunwal&Giemsa stain.The surface markers of ALA-DCregs were observed by FACS.The function of ALA-DCregs was detected by in vitro mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) and in vivo lymphocyte proliferation assay.Results The generated ALA-DCregs displayed an irregular shape with areas of protrusion and demonstrated higher CD11b/CD11c and higher MHC-II but lower CD40,CD80,CD86 expression levels than DCcons.They also had immune regulation effects in both in vitro and in vivo lymphocyte proliferation assay.Conclusion This study illustrated a feasible approach for generating functional DCregs from murine bone marrow induced by ALA/SFC.These cells can be useful for research and application of DC immunotherapy in the future.

Objective To investigate the effects of amylin,also known as islet amyloid polypeptide(IAPP),on learning and memory abilities and the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B(PI3K/Akt)signaling pathway in APP/PS1 mice.Methods A total of 20 APP/PS1 mice were randomly divided into Alzheimer's disease(AD)group and IAPP group,with 10 mice in each group.The mice in the latter group were given an intraperitoneal injection of 0.5 μmol/L IAPP,and those of the former group received same dose of PBS.Both interventions were given once per day,for 10 weeks.Morris water maze test was used to measure the learning and memory abilities;HE staining was employed to observe the pathological changes in the hippocampus;Transmission electron microscopy was utilized to observe the ultrastructure of hippocampal neurons;Biochemical assay were conducted to detect the contents of glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px),malondialdehyde(MDA)and superoxide dismutase(SOD)in hippocampal tissues;ELISA was applied to measure the levels of inflammatory factors such as IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α as well as content of Aβ42 in hippocampal tissues;And Western blotting was conducted to detect the expression of PI3K/Akt proteins.Results Compared with the AD group,significantly shorter platform latency(P＜0.01),increased number of traversing the platform and longer time to explore the hidden platform(P＜0.01)were observed in the IAPP group,but no such difference was seen in the swimming speed of the mice.HE staining displayed that the IAPP group had more and well-arranged nerve cells in the hippocampal tissue when compared with the AD group(P＜0.05).Lower Aβ protein expression(P＜0.01),reduced oxidative stress and decreased contents of inflammatory factors(P＜0.01)in hippocampal tissue were observed in the IAPP group than the AD group.The IAPP group showed clearer structure of neuronal mitochondria,reduced vacuolization,and better arranged microtubules and microfilaments,and elevated expression of p-PI3K/PI3K and p-Akt/Akt proteins when compared with the AD group(P＜0.01).Conclusion Amylin can reduce oxidative stress and inflammatory responses,improve learning and memory abilities in AD mice,and promote the activity of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Objective To study the estimation method of medical exposure frequency in China through the survey of diagnostic radiology and radiotherapy institutions in selected provinces.Methods A survey of medical exposure frequency was carried out involving 557 diagnostic radiology and radiotherapy institutions in 25 provinces.The correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were conducted,with the fitting effects of the models with different variables being compared.Results The total medical exposure frequencies highly correlated with number of outpatient,number of equipment and number of radiation workers (| r| ＞0.5).Representative samples of the daily medical exposure workload were obtained by stratified random sampling from the survey data.Mathematical models were built using the multiple linear regression between total medical exposure frequency and hospital levels,number of outpatients,number of inpatients,number of equipment,and number of radiation workers.The total medical exposure frequency in 2016 was estimated to be 589 million examinations based on the models.In addition,the frequencies of medical procedures were derived using the robust regression and the median regression.Conclusions There are several methods for estimating the total medical exposure frequency.It is desirable to use the stratified random sampling combined with the published statistical and monitoring data.The representativeness of sample is critical.The specification and optimization of models also require further study.

OBJECTIVE：To provide evidence for promoting the scientific resea rch ability and talent team construction of hospital pharmacists. METHODS ：From Dec. 2019 to Apr. 2020，“Survey Form for Scientific Research Ability of Hospital Pharmacists”were issued to pharmacists in 62 medical institutions from 20 provinces across the country. The questionnaire was mainly based on five aspects ，i.e. general information of surveyed pharmacists ，the number of internal/external funds and patents approved in recent five years （2015-2019），the number of papers published in domestic/abroad/SCI journals ，the familiarity with scientific research projects ，the difficulties in carrying out scientific research. The collected data were summarized and analyzed with R 4.0.3 software. RESULTS ：A total of 300 questionnaires were sent out ，and 288 valid questionnaires were collected with effective recovery rate of 96％. Among surveyed pharmacists ，94 were male and 194 were female. The majority of them were 31-39 years old （52.78％）；56.25％，28.12％ and 15.63％ of them had bachelor ’s degree ，master’s degree and doctor ’s degree respectively，and 156（54.17％）had intermediate title. Totally 74.66％ of hospital pharmacists thought it was very necessary or necessary to carry out research projects （involving all doctors ，26 masters and 4 bachelors）. There were significant differences among pharmacists with different educational background in respects of the number of applications for internal and external funds and patents ，as well as the number of papers published in domestic/foreign/SCI journals ，and most of them were doctors （P＜ 0.05）. In recent five years ，most of hospital pharmacists had published 1-3 papers in domestic journals ，accounting for 44.80％， while 27.08％ had published papers in SCI journals. Totally 51.39％ of hospital pharmacists were not familiar or not very familiar with scientific research projects funding （most of them had bachelor ’s degree ）；52.43％ expressed that experimental conditions were the biggest difficulty in conducting scientific research. CONCLUSIONS：This survey shows that hospital pharmacists have a relatively positive attitude towards scientific researchprojects. Most of papers are published in domestic journals. 8804919。E-mail：songjc1234@126.com However， there are still many shortcomings in scientific research status. Scientific research capabilities need to be improved. Experimental conditions also limit the scientific research projects to a certain extent. Hospitals need to strengthen funding for pharmacist research projects ，strengthen academic exchanges ， so that pharmacists can understand scientific research projects more comprehensively and systematically.

Objective To construct a human renal epithelial cell line HEK293T by CRISPR-Cas9-based site-directed knock-in of vascular endothelial growth factor 165 (VEGF165) gene, and avoid the off-target effect caused by lentivirus infection. Methods The VEGF165 expression vector with homologous arm (pUCm-T-VEGF165 plasmid) and the sgRNA expression vector [pSpCas9(BB)-2A-Puro-sgRNA plasmid] were designed and constructed based on the DNA sequence of the EZH2 gene, and then co-transfected into HEK293T cells. The expression of VEGF165 mRNA was detected by qPCR and the expressions of VEGF165 proteins were detected by Western Blot. Results The qPCR and Western Blot results showed that, comparing with the control, the pUCm-T-VEGF165 plasmid and pSpCas9(BB)-2A-Puro-sgRNA plasmid, the expression of the co-transfection plasmid were significantly increased, i.e. 3.42±0.30 vs. 1.02±0.21, 1.13±0.16 and 0.98±0.18 for the VEGF165 mRNA level (all P<0.01), and 1.13±0.16 vs. 1.02±0.06, 0.88±0.03 and 0.80±0.05 for the VEGF165 protein level (all P<0.01), respectively. Besides, the expression of EZH2 was significantly down-regulated, i.e. 0.14±0.06 vs. 1.08±0.11, 1.02±0.12 and 1.13±0.16 for the EZH2 mRNA level (all P<0.01), and 0.23±0.03 vs. 1.05±0.13, 0.91±0.04 and 0.81±0.06 for the EZH2 protein level (all P<0.01), respectively. This result showed that the VEGF165 was successfully inserted into the EZH2 genome, interfering the EZH2 expression. Conclusions VEGF165 gene can be successfully knocked into HEK293T cells by CRISPR/Cas9 system.

BackgroundThe prevalence of depressive disorder in adolescents is on the rise. There have been studies on the pairwise relations between dysfunctional attitude， negative automatic thoughts， positive coping style and depressive symptoms in the past. However， the impact of the intrinsic relations among dysfunctional attitude， negative automatic thoughts and positive coping style on depressive symptoms is still unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the influence of dysfunctional attitude on adolescent depressive symptoms and examine the action path of negative automatic thoughts and positive coping style on it， in order to provide references for intervention for adolescent patients with depressisve disorder. MethodsThis study involved 162 adolescent patients with depressive disorder， who met the diagnostic criteria for depressive episodes in the International Classification of Diseases， 10th edition （ICD-10） and received treatment in Taiyuan Psychiatric Hospital from October 1， 2022 to October 31， 2023. These patients were evaluated using Self-rating Depression Scale （SDS）， Dysfunction Attitude Scale （DAS）， Positive Coping Style Subscale in Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire（SCSQ） and Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire （ATQ）. Pearson correlation analysis was adopted to examine the correlation among scores of scales above. Model 6 in Process 3.4.1 was adopted to test the acting path of negative automatic thoughts and positive coping style between dysfunctional attitude and adolescent depression symptoms. ResultsA total of 148 adolescent patients with depressive disorder completed an effective questionnaire survey， with a response rate of 91.36%. The direct effect value of dysfunctional attitude on depressive symptoms was 0.423 and the effect size was 63.32%. Negative automatic thoughts and positive coping style affected as acting path between dysfunctional attitude and depressive symptoms， with effect values of 0.156 （accounting for 23.35% of the total effect） and 0.045 （accounting for 6.74% of the total effect） respectively. Meanwhile， negative automatic thoughts and positive coping style affected as a chain reaction pathway between dysfunctional attitude and depressive symptoms， with an effect value of 0.044， accounting for 6.59% of the total effect. ConclusionDysfunctional attitude can not only directly affect the depressive symptoms of adolescent patients with depressive disorder， but also affect the depressive symptoms of adolescent patients with depressive disorder through the independent path or chain path of negative automatic thoughts and positive coping style.
