Objective : To investigate the effect and mechanism of sex-determining region Y-box transcription factor 4(SOX4) on autophagy in small cell lung cancer(SCLC) cells. Methods : Human SCLC cell line NCI-H446 was transfected with small interfering RNA(siRNA) to knockdown SOX4. RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to verify the transfection efficiency. NCI-H446 cells were divided into control group, si-SOX4 group, si-SOX4+oe-Beclin1 group and oe-Beclin1 group. Western blot analysis was performed to detect the ratio of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3(LC3)-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ expression and the expression of Beclin1 and p62 in different groups of cells. The transcriptional regulation of Beclin1 by SOX4 was detected by dual luciferase reporter assay and chromatin immunoprecipitation PCR(ChIP-PCR) assay. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the proliferation ability of NCI-H446 cells in different groups. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis rate of NCI-H446 cells in different groups. Transwell assay was performed to determine the cell migration and invasion ability in different groups. Results: Compared with the control group or the si-NC group, the relative mRNA and protein expression level of SOX4 in si-SOX4 group were down-regulated(P<0.05), and the ratio of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ protein expression and the relative protein expression level of Beclin1 in si-SOX4 group decreased(P<0.05), the relative protein expression of p62 increased(P<0.05). The relative luciferase activity of Beclin1 WT in the si-SOX4 group was lower than that in the si-NC group(P<0.05); the relative enrichment of Beclin1 promoter in the Anti-SOX4 group was higher than that in the Anti-Ig G group( P<0. 05). Compared with control group,cell proliferation activity decreased,cell apoptosis rate increased,migration number and invasion number decreased in si-SOX4 group( P<0. 05). Compared with the si-SOX4 group,the ratio of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ protein expression and the relative protein expression of Beclin1 increased in si-SOX4 + oe-Beclin1 group,while the relative protein expression of p62 decreased,cell proliferation activity increased,apoptosis rate decreased,migration number and invasion number increased( P<0. 05). Conclusion Down-regulation of SOX4 can inhibit autophagy,decrease proliferation activity of NCI-H446 cells,and inhibit cell migration and invasion by inhibiting Beclin1 expression.

Objective To explore the residual level of FPMs in indoor dust samples in Shenzhen from 2020 and 2021, and to analyze its temporal distribution characteristics. Methods In the present study, indoor dust samples (n=193) from residential buildings in Shenzhen. were collected to analyze the temporal variation characteristics of FPMs. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was applied to determine the concentrations of FP and its four major metabolites (fipronil-sulfone, fipronil-sulfide, fipronil-desulfinyl, and fipronil-amide; abbreviated as FP-SFO, FP-SFI, FP-DES, and FP-AM) in the samples. The sum of the concentrations of FP and its four metabolites was represented as additive mass concentration (ΣFPMs). Additionaly, Wilcoxon test was performed to determine the temporal distribution differences of FPMs’ concentrations. Results From 2020 to 2021, the concentration of ΣFPMs for the in door dust samples in Shenzhen ranged from 0.51 to 4 415 ng/g (median: 18.8ng/g). FP, FP-SFO AND FP-SFI were the major target analytes in the sample with detection rates of 90.60%，86.20% and 75.40%, respectively. The detection rates of other metabolites were low (≤ 44.3%). Analysis of the temporal variation trend of FPMs’ concentrations showed that there was no significant difference in the levels of ΣFPMs between warm season（spring and summer）and cold season（autumn and winter）in the indoor dust samples from 2020 to 2021(2.38 vs 2.84ng/g , P > 0.05). However , the concentrations of FP-SFI and ΣFPMs in the indoor dust samples collected from 2021 showed an significantly increasing trend compared with 2020（1.02 vs 1.89 , 17.80vs. 20.10 ng/g , P < 0.05). Conclusion From 2020 to 2021 , the detection level of FPMs in indoor dust in Shenzhen is relatively high and shows an upward trend , with no obvious seasonal difference. However, whether the residual level of FPMs in indoor dust poses a risk to human health needs further study.

Objective    To discuss outcomes of arch reintervention for post-repair recoarctation in children. Methods    From 2009 to 2019, 48 patients underwent reintervention for post-repair recoarctation in Shanghai Children’s Medical Center. Of the 48 patients, 22 patients had surgical repair, 25 patients had balloon angioplasty (BA), and 1 patient had a stent implantation. The clinical data were analyzed, and the difference in time-to-event distribution between the surgical group and the BA group was determined by a log-rank test. Results    The median age at reintervention was 15.0 months (range, 3.0 months-15.1 years). The median weight at reintervention was 9.8 kg (range, 3.0-58.0 kg). The time to reintervention after initial repair was 12.5 months (range, 2.0 months-7.8 years). One patient (2.1%) died in hospital and 1 patient (2.1%) experienced arrhythmia after surgical repair. One late mortality (2.1%) occurred after surgical reintervention. One patient (2.1%) experienced aortic dissection after BA. No patient died after BA. Freedom from residual coarctation or new recurrences was 66.7%, 61.3%, and 56.9%, respectively, at 1, 2, and 5 years after reintervention. Freedom from residual coarctation or new recurrences was 90.0%, 81.8%, and 70.1%, respectively, at 1, 2, and 5 years after surgical repair. Freedom from residual coarctation or new recurrences was 52.0%, 48.0%, and 48.0%, respectively, at 1, 2, and 5 years after BA. Compared with BA, surgery-based reintervention had a lower incidence of residual coarctation or recurrences (χ2=4.400, P=0.036). Conclusion    Reintervention for recoarctation has favorable early outcomes. Compared with balloon angioplasty, surgical repair has a more lasting effect in relieving the recoarctation.

Objective To discuss the epidemiological characteristics of the dynamic changes of serum FT3, FT4, and TSH levels in patients with hemorrhagic stroke under the age of 45, and to discuss the prognostic evaluation effects and influencing factors of these indicators. Methods From January 2017 to January 2020, 227 patients with multicenter hemorrhagic stroke in our hospital were selected for analysis. Collect and analyze prognosis (death, rebleeding, no adverse prognosis) at baseline and 12 months of follow-up; monitor serum FT3, FT4, and TSH levels during treatment at the same time during follow-up, 7 days after treatment, and 14 days after treatment. Observe the trend characteristics of dynamic changes. The assay method is enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. At the end of the follow-up, the subjects were divided into three groups: death, rebleeding, and no adverse prognosis according to the prognostic outcome of the 12-month short-term follow-up. The epidemiological characteristics of patients with different prognosis and the dynamic change trend of FT3, FT4 and TSH in the same serum were compared. The interconnectedness. Results There were no statistically significant differences in gender and age between the three groups (P>0.05), but the differences in hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia were statistically significant (P<0.05). The FT3 level of the case group was significantly higher than that of the control group at all times (P<0.05). Both the case group and the control group found that the FT3 level had a downward trend compared with that before treatment at 7d after treatment, and that FT3 level had an upward trend compared with 7d after treatment at 14d after treatment, but there was no statistical significance (P>0.05). The FT4 level of the case group was significantly higher than that of the control group at all times (P<0.05). Both the case group and the control group found that the FT4 level had a rising trend compared with that before treatment 7d after treatment, and that the FT4 level had a downward trend compared with 7d after treatment, but there was no statistical significance (P>0.05). The TSH level of the case group was significantly higher than that of the control group at all times (P<0.05). Both the case group and the control group found that the TSH level of 7d after treatment had an upward trend compared with that before treatment, and that the TSH level had a downward trend compared with that of 7d after treatment, but there was no statistical significance (P>0.05). With the decrease of the patient's age, the serum FT3 level has a gradually increasing trend, and the serum FT4, TSH level, mortality and rebleeding rate have a gradually decreasing trend (P<0.05). Conclusion The continuous decrease of FT3 level and the continuous increase of FT4 and TSH levels are potentially associated with the poor prognosis of patients with hemorrhagic stroke, which is worthy of clinical attention.
