Deubiquitinating enzymes, reversing protein ubiquitination, most of the researches focused on the ifeld of molecular biology. However, it have not yet attracted enough attention in translational medicine research. In fact, target proteins of deubiquitinating enzymes affect the tumor progression through various ways, for example, cell apoptosis and autophagy, the link between inlfammation and cancer, tumor hypoxia, signal transduction, cell cycle regulation and DNA damage. This paper reviewed the research progress on the relations between deubiquitinating enzymes and the correlated factors of tumor.

Objective : To apply analytical flow chart method to building a model for forecasting the risk of influenza and providing preventive measures. Methods : Surveillance data of influenza in Zhoushan from 2015 to 2018 was collected. Analytical flow chart method was used to evaluate the real-time risk of influenza,which were stratified by the seasonality of influenza,the percentage of influenza-like patients （ILI%） and whether there were effective prevention and treatment measures. The trend-line,warning line and action line of the influenza in 2018 were fit and the risk grades of influenza forecast were defined,which were compared with the actual risk grands during the first 20 weeks in 2018,to evaluate the accuracy of influenza forecast index. Results : Through the analysis of the flow chart,the influenza index was divided into six grades,very high risk（gradeⅠ,n=0）,high risk （gradeⅡ,n=14,ILI%=12.61%±7.54%）,relative high risk （gradeⅢ,n=16,ILI%=7.76%±3.53%）,general risk（gradeⅣ,n=57,ILI%=6.31%±2.26%）,relative low risk （gradeⅤ,n=32,ILI%=5.37%±1.96%）and low risk （grade Ⅵ,n=37,ILI%=4.30%±1.40%）. The concordance rate between the forecast risk and actual risk was 70.00% （14/20）. Conclusion This influenza forecasting model could well forecast the levels of influenza risk each week.

Objective To explore the association of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) efflux pump gene Rv1217c-Rv1218c and the drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.Methods A total of 34 Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates including 24 drug-resistance isolates which were resistant to riffampicin,isoniazid,streptomycin or ethambutol and resistant to at least one second-line antituberculosis drug,and 10 drug-sensitive isolates were involved in this study.The RNA of isolated strains was extracted and then reverse transcribed. Gene expression was performed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and data was analyzed by t test and Logistic regression analysis.Results The expressions of Rv1217c in rifampicin-resistant group (2.13 ± 1.89,t =3.44,P＜0.01),isoniazid-resistant group ( 1.84 ± 1.86,t =3.16,P＜ 0.05),streptomycin-resistant group ( 1.86 ±1.96,t=2.78,P＜0.05) and ethambutol-resistant groups (3.36±2.35,t=3.04,P＜0.05) were all higher than sensitive isolates (0.42 ± 0.31).The expressions of Rv1218c in rifampicin-resistant group (2.54±1.84,t=3.82,P＜0.01),isoniazid-resistant group (2.34± 1.84,t=3.72,P＜0.01),streptomycin-resistant group (2.15±1.86,t=3.01,P＜0.01) and ethambutol-resistant groups (3.78± 1.78,t=4.22,P＜0.01 ) were all higher than sensitive isolates (0.65 ± 0.42).The expressions of Rv1217c and Rv1218c in multidrug resistant group were 2.74±2.07 and 3.33± 1.77,respectively,which were both higher than polydrug resistant group (0.79 ± 0.47 and 1.03 ± 0.79,respectively; t =2.91,P＜0.05 ; t =3.84,P＜0.01,respectively).Logistic regression analysis found that high Rv1217c expression was positively correlated with rifampicin resistance and negatively correlated with isoniazid resistance (both P＜ 0.01 ),while high Rv1218c expression was negatively correlated with rifampicin resistance and positively correlated with isoniazid resistance (both P＜0.01 ).High expressions of two genes were both positively correlated with ethambutol resistance and multidrug resistance (both P＜0.01 ) and not statistically correlated with streptomycin resistance (P＞0.05).Conclusions The expressions of ABC efflux pump gene,Rv1217c-Rv1218c,are correlated with multiple drug resistance.The overexpression may contribute to the multidrug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Objective : To study the epidemiological characteristics of coronavirus disease 2019 （COVID-19） in Zhoushan, so as to provide reference for improving the prevention and control capability of COVID-19. Methods : All the confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Zhoushan, diagnosed according to China’s “COVID-19 diagnosis and treatment plan （fifth version） ” and reported from January 19 to February 17, 2020, were extracted from the infectious disease surveillance system. Data of general information, clinical characteristics, laboratory Results, transmission and detection routes were collected and analyzed. Results : By February 17, Ten confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Zhoushan had been reported, including 7 males and 3 females. They were all adults, with an average age of （50.90±15.00） years. Five cases were discharged. The incubation period ranged from 2 to 12 days, with a median of 5 days. The first symptoms were fever （8 cases）, cough （7 cases） and muscle pain （2 cases）. Chest computed tomographic （CT） scans showed ground glass opacities in the lungs of all the cases. Six cases had Wuhan related exposure. SARS-CoV-2 was tested positive in the sputum specimens or throat swabs of all the cases and the faeces of 4 cases. The last suspicious exposure of 5 cases occurred before, and that of another 5 cases occurred after the onset of clinical symptoms in the confirmed maternal cases. Three cases were found in active consultation after clinical symptoms, and another 7 cases were found in the monitoring of close contacts. Conclusions The 10 confirmed cases of COVID-19 reported in Zhoushan are all adults, and most have Wuhan related exposure. SARS-CoV-2 can be detected in the fecal samples, but the existence of fecal-oral transmission needs more research. SARS-CoV-2 has strong infectivity, and may also have infectivity before the onset of symptoms （at the end of incubation period）. Isolation and early detection of close contacts are conducive for early case-finding.

Objective: To find a viable alternative to reduce the number of doses required for the patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and to improve efficacy and patient compliance. Methods: In this study, we used ginger oil, a phytochemical with potential therapeutic properties, to prepare ginger oil patches. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to quantify the main active component of ginger oil, 6-gingerol. Transdermal absorption experiments were conducted to optimize the various pressure-sensitive adhesives and permeation enhancers, including their type and concentration. Subsequently, the ginger oil patches were optimized and subjected to content determination and property evaluations. A PTSD mouse model was established using the foot-shock method. The therapeutic effect of ginger oil patches on PTSD was assessed through pathological sections, behavioral tests, and the evaluation of biomarkers such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and melatonin (MT). Results: The results demonstrated that ginger oil patches exerted therapeutic effects against PTSD by inhibiting inflammatory responses and modulating MT and BDNF levels. Pharmacokinetic experiments revealed that ginger oil patches maintained a stable blood drug concentration for at least one day, addressing the rapid metabolism drawback of 6-gingerol and enhancing its therapeutic efficacy. Conclusions Ginger oil can be prepared as a transdermal drug patch that meets these requirements, and the bioavailability of the prepared patch is better than that of oral administration. It can improve PTSD with good patient compliance and ease of administration. Therefore, it is a promising therapeutic formulation for the treatment of PTSD.

Objective:To analyse the association between triglyceride glucose (TyG) index and the number of coronary artery lesions in patients with stable coronary artery disease.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. Patients with stable coronary artery disease who were admitted to Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from 1st January 2019 to 30th April 2020 for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were selected. We collected general clinical information and laboratory results from the enrolled patients, then calculated the TyG index. We evaluated coronary artery lesions by coronary angiography and analysed the factors associated with the number of coronary artery lesion branches by the logistic regression model.Results:A total of 832 patients were included in this study, 641 (77.0%) were male, the age was (64.6±11.5) years. The mean TyG index was 8.78. Patients with the TyG index≥8.78 were included in the high TyG index group (411 patients), and those with the TyG index<8.78 were included in the low TyG index group (421 patients). Compared with the low TyG index group, the high TyG index group had the higher body mass index and diastolic blood pressure, more smokers and diabetes mellitus, younger age of onset of coronary heart disease (all P<0.05), and a lower proportion of patients using statins ( P=0.027). Compared with the low TyG index group, the high TyG index group had the higher levels of erythrocyte count, hemoglobin, white blood cell count, albumin, urea nitrogen, uric acid, fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, apolipoprotein E, and C-reactive protein (all P<0.05). However, the levels of high density lipoprotein, apolipoprotein A1 and apolipoprotein A were lower in the high TyG index group than those in the low TyG index group (all P<0.05). The number of coronary artery lesions in patients in the high TyG index group was 2.35±0.91, more than the low TyG index group 2.10±0.95 ( P<0.001).After adjusting for the other factors, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male, smoking history (smoking cessation or smoking), TyG index and troponin T levels were independently positively associated with the number of coronary artery lesions (all OR>1, P<0.05), while ApoA1 was independently negatively associated with the number of coronary artery lesions ( OR=0.140, P=0.007). Conclusions:TyG index is positively associated with the number of coronary artery lesions in patients with stable coronary artery disease.

Objective To discuss the application of self-developed novel 16-slice mobile CT head scan.Methods A total of 391 patients were performed 16-slice mobile CT scan:145 were scanned in the emergency department,156 in the neurosurgical ICU,55 in the operated room,and 35 in the ambulance vehicle.Sixty-eight patients were with brain injury,122 were with cerebral hemorrhage,120 were with cerebral infarction,59 were with brain tumors,and 22 were with hemifacial spasm.Thirty-five patients were randomly selected from 391 patients and 8-slice mobile CT head scan was performed on them,which included 12 with brain injury,6 with cerebral hemorrhage,12 with cerebral infarction,3 with brain tumors and 2 with hemifacial spasm.The resolution,imaging quality,radiation doses,power consumption and performance stability of novel 16-slice mobile CT and 8-slice mobile CT head scan were compared.Results The resolution line pairs of brain tissues were 91 p/cm by 16-slice mobile CT and 71 p/cm by 8-slice mobile CT,respectively.The imaging quality of the two kinds of mobile CT head scans was high level to the clinic diagnostic criteria.The radiation dose of 16-slice mobile CT were 40.43 mGy,which decreased by 51.01％ as compared with that of 8-slice mobile CT (82.52 mGy).The personal power consumption of 16-silce mobile CT (0.29 kW· h) decreased by 38.30％ as compared with those of 8-layer mobile CT (0.47 kW· h).The 16-slice mobile CT kept regularly,while 8-slicer mobile CT stopped to work twice during clinical trial.Conclusion The 16-slice mobile CT scan has high resolution,fine imaging quality,low radiation dose,small power consumption and stable working performance.

Objective To explore the role of sulodexide(SDX)in neointimal hyperplasia of arteriovenous fistulas(AVFs)in chronic kidney disease(CKD)rats and its possible mechanism.Methods A total of 18 male rats(weighing 300±50 g)were randomly and equally divided into AVF group,CKD+AVF group(CKD induction followed by AVF surgery and then gavaged with normal saline for 2 months),and CKD+AVF+SDX group[treated as in the CKD+AVF group but with 8 mg/(kg·d)SDX gavage].HE staining was used to observe the degree of neointimal hyperplasia.The expression of Hippo pathway related molecules,Yes-associated protein(YAP),pYAP and connective tissue growth factor(CTGF,YAP downstream target protein,one of mesenchymal marker)was detected by immunofluorescence assay.After human umbilical vein cell fusion EAHy926 cells were treated with 0,2.5,5,10,20 or 40 μg/mL SDX for 24 h,and with 2.5 μg/mL SDXfor24,48 or 72 h,respectively,CCK-8 assay was used to measure cell survival rate.Moreover,the serum sample from CKD rat was used to treat EAHy926 cells,and then the cells were treated with SDX or YAP inhibitor verteporfin.The expression levels of YAP,pYAP,CTGF and endothelial cell marker CD31 were detected by Western blotting.Results HE staining and immunofluorescence assay showed that CKD rats had serious neointimal hyperplasia in AVFs(P＜0.05),and slightly lower expression of pYAP and enhanced expression of CTGF(P＜0.05)when compared with the rats of the AVF group.While,SDX treatment alleviated the neointimal hyperplasia of AVFs,enhanced the expression of pYAP and reduced the expression of CTGF(P＜0.05).CCK-8 assay showed that cell survival rate was decreased significantly in a dose-and time-dependent manner after SDX treatment(P＜0.05).Western blotting revealed that SDX increased the expression of pYAP and CD31 while inhibited the expression of CTGF in EAHy926 cells(P＜0.05),which was consistent with the effect of verteporfin treatment.Conclusion SDX can block YAP activation caused by CKD and attenuate neointimal hyperplasia in AVFs.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of serum high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) level with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to explore its predictive value.Methods:It was a case-control study. Clinical data of 731 patients with CCS who underwent PCI in the Affiliated Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University between May 2019 and April 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Baseline clinical characteristics and pre/postoperative laboratory results were gathered, and patients were followed up and the incidence of MACE was documented. The correlation of serum hs-cTnT levels with MACE was analyzed, and the threshold of hs-cTnT for predicting the occurrence of MACE was determined.Results:Among 731 patients there were 560 males (76.61%) with the age of (64.05±9.48) years. Patients were followed up for 29.9 (18.8, 35.3) months, and MACE occurred in 216 cases (MACE group), and did not occur in 515 cases (control group). The X-tile software analysis showed that the optimal cutoff value of post-PCI hs-cTnT was 4.17×upper reference limit (URL) for predicting MACE ( P=0.033). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that postoperative cTnT>6×URL was an independent risk factor for MACE in CCS patients after PCI ( HR=1.87, 95% CI: 1.19-2.94, P=0.007). The net reclassification index pairwise comparison results indicated that hs-cTnT>6×URL had the better predictive performance for MACE in CCS patients after PCI compared to 7×URL, 8×URL, 9×URL, 10×URL and 15×URL (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Postoperative hs-cTnT>6×URL is an independent risk factor for MACE in CCS patients after PCI, and hs-cTnT>6×URL is the optimal threshold for predicting the risk of MACE.

Objective To understand the prevalence of birth defects, related diseases and mental status of women during pregnancy in Shaanxi province and to analyse the major risk factors on birth defects and congenital heart disease. Possible association between maternal diseases or mental status and the risk of birth defects, was also explored. Methods A cross-sectional design was used in this study and stratified multistage random sampling method was used. The whole survey was from Jury 2013 to November 2013. Logistic regression method was used to analyze the association between maternal diseases, mental status during pregnancy and birth defects. Results The overall prevalence of birth defects was 195.04 per 10000 in Shaanxi. Among the 29121 mothers participating in this study, 51.1% developed illness and 6.8%"changed their mental status during pregnancy. After adjusting all the confounding factors, results showed that, histories of cold", fever, and intrahepatic cholestasis were (OR=1.33, 95%CI:1.10-1.61, OR=1.54, 95%CI:1.09-2.16, and OR=32.77, 95%CI:4.08-263.04) respectively, during pregnancy that related to birth defects. Self-reported unstable mental status (OR=1.60, 95%CI: 1.19-2.15) and family friction (OR=2.07, 95%CI: 1.12-3.79) were both related to the birth rates. Histories of cold and fever (OR=1.59, 95%CI:1.28-1.98;OR=1.43, 95%CI:1.48-4.00), during early pregnancy, unstable mental status during mid-pregnant period (OR=1.52, 95%CI:1.05-2.19), unstable mental status during late-pregnant period (OR=1.63, 95%CI:1.05-2.19) and family friction during late-pregnant period (OR=2.89, 95%CI:1.16-7.20) were found to be related to birth defects. Compared with those without history of cold, those with the history of cold during first (OR=1.24, 95%CI: 1.02-1.52) and second stages (OR=2.06, 95%CI: 1.30-3.26) of pregnancy were more likely to bear fetus with birth defects. Compared with those without these histories, those with histories of fever (OR=1.49, 95%CI:1.04-2.13), emotional problem (OR=1.71, 95%CI:1.19-2.45) and related diseases (OR=2.67, 95%CI: 1.32-5.39) during the first period of pregnancy were more likely to bear fetus with birth defects. Conclusion The incidence of birth defects in Shaanxi was high. Histories of cold, fever, unstable mental status and family friction during pregnancy, seemed to have increased the risks of bearing child with birth defects.
