Objective To analyze the clinical and pathological characteristics of thyroid nodules.Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 2843 Han patients with thyroid nodules from January 2009 to June 2011 in Henan province was performed.Results The most high-risk of thyroid nodule resided in the group aged 45-54.The main pathological manifestation was simple nodular goiter.The rate of preoperative misdiagnosis was 2.4％.22.1％ of the patients with thyroid nodules showed abnormal thyroid function,which was mainly as subclinical thyroid dysfunction.The positive rate of thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) in patients with thyroid nodule was 19.8％ while that of thyroid globulin antibody (TgAb) was 20.0％.Among all 2843 subjects,the prevalence of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) was 28.8％,and the incidence of DTC was accompanied by raised TSH levels.The prevalence of DTC exceeded 40％ in patients aged between 25 to 34 as well as more than 74 years old.The prevalence of DTC was up to 33.8％ in TgAb positive patients.There was no difference in TPOAb levels between DTC patients and non DTC patients (P =0.406),but the TgAb level in patients with DTC was significantly higher than that of non DTC patients (P =0.033).Conclusion Thyroid nodule patients aged 25-34 or older than 74 formed high-risk groups of DTC.The serum TSH level and TgAb level were positively correlated with the risk of DTC.

Objective To investigate the localization and distribution of the five endocrine cells in the digestive tract mucosa of ricefield eel(Monopterus albus). Methods Using immunocytochemical technique of strept avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex(SABC) were used. Results At least 5 kinds of immunoreactive endocrine cells distributed in the digestive tract mucosa of M.albus. They were gastrin(Gas),somatostatin(Som),5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),insulin(Ins),and neurofilament (NF) immunoreactive endocrine(IRE) cells.Gas and Som-IRE cells distributed between stratified squamous epithelium and goblet cell in esophagus. A large number of Gas-IRE cells were found between gastric fundus epithelium and gastric glands, and only a few in the carcia. Ins, 5-HT and NF-IRE cells distributed in the epithelium pylorus and pyloric glandular tube respectively. No any immunoreactive positive reaction was found in the gut of M.albus.In addition, immunoreactive positive reaction of glucagons was not found in whole digestive tract.All immunoreactive endocrine cells were dark brown in color.Their morphology was irregular, cytoplasmic process was shorter and thicker, their nucleus showed an empty bubble.They distributed between esophageal epithelium and gastric epithelium or glandular epithelium, and cytoplasmic process extended to the gastric lumen and glandular cavity.Conclusion There is a complex endocrine function of the digestive system in ricefield eel (M.albus) at the lowest vertebrate.

Objective To study the electroacupuncture effects of the single point Zusanli or Sanyinjiao on simple obese rats and to observe the regulation of fat metabolism.M[ethods Before and after the treatment,the body weights and lengths of rats in each group were measured tO calculate the Lee's index;besides,total cholesteriol (TC) and triglycerides (TG) in the rat blood were also determined.Finally,the rats were treated and observed for tWO courses,and SPSS11.5 statistical software was employed to conduct statistical analysis of the experimental data.Results A significant difference was observed about the effects on the height,weight,Lee's index,TC and TG between treatment group and the model group or normal control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01),but no significant difference between treatment group and normal control group (P>0.05).Conclusion Electroacupuncture of Zusanli and Sanyinjiao points has effects on simple-obesity rats,which can make weight loss and decrease Lee's index,TC and TG levels.The underlying mechanism may relate to the improvements of fat metabolism.

Objective: To examine the correlation between frailty and lifestyle factors among middle-aged and elderly populations, so as to provide insights into the management of frailty among middle-aged and elderly populations. Methods : Middle-aged and elderly residents at ages of 45 ot 69 years were recruited using the convenient sampling method from seven townships in Changxing County of Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2020. The demographic characteristics and lifestyle factors were collected using questionnaires, and the frailty was measured using the Chinese version of Tilburg Frailty Indicator ( TFI ). Factors affecting frailty were identified among middle-aged and elderly populations using the multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 7 170 residents were surveyed, including 2 780 males ( 38.77% ) and 4 390 females ( 61.23% ), which had a median age of 56 (interquartile range, 10) years. The median frailty score was 2 (interquartile range, 3 ) among the study subjects, and the median frailty score was 2 ( interquartile range, 2 ) among residents at ages of 45 to 59 years, and 2 (interquartile range, 3) among residents at ages of 60 to 69 years. The overall detection of frailty was 16.07%, and the detection of frailty was 13.52% among subjects at ages of 45 to 59 years and 21.01% among subjects at ages of 60 to 69 years. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified physical activity ( OR=0.826, 95%CI: 0.719-0.949 ) and sleep quality ( OR: 3.376-11.493, 95%CI: 2.907-15.808 ) as factors affecting frailty among middle-aged and elderly residents. Following age stratification, physical activity ( OR=0.817, 95%CI: 0.681-0.981 ) and sleep quality ( OR: 3.076-11.566, 95%CI: 2.518-18.216 ) as factors affecting frailty among subjects at ages of 45 to 59 years, while sleep quality ( OR: 3.777-11.827, 95%CI: 3.002-18.547 ) significantly correlated with frailty among residents at ages of 60 to 69 years. Conclusion Physical activity and sleep quality are associated with the risk of frailty among middle-aged and elderly populations.

Objective:To understand the current status of overweight and obesity, the iodine nutrition level and goiter among children in Tianjin, and explore their relationships, so as to effectively adjust the prevention and control measures.Methods:From January 2019 to December 2020, one primary school was selected from all towns or streets in 16 districts of Tianjin, and non-boarding children aged 8 to 10 (age and gender balanced) were selected from each primary school. The number of children sampled in towns or streets in each district was as even as possible. Every year, 200 children from each district were investigated for height, weight, iodine of household edible salt, urinary iodine and thyroid volume. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated and its relationship with iodine nutrition level and goiter of children was analyzed.Results:A total of 6 552 children were investigated, and the median urinary iodine was 178.95 μg/L, the goiter rate was 2.15% (141/6 552). There was no significant difference in iodine content of household edible salt among children in different BMI groups ( P = 0.835), but the difference in thyroid volume was statistically significant ( P < 0.001). By constructing a restrictive cubic spline model, the risk of goiter in children of different age groups increased with increase of BMI ( P < 0.001 or P = 0.002). Conclusions:The BMI of children is closely related to thyroid volume. The influence of height and weight should be considered in diagnosis of goiter of children.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of dental fluorosis of children in the drinking-water-borne endemic fluorosis (referred to as drinking-water-borne fluorosis) areas with qualified drinking water.Methods:In 2020 and 2021, the cluster sampling method was used to select the children aged 8 to 12 years old from the drinking-water-borne fluorisis areas with qualified drinking water in Tianjin City for water and urine fluoride detection, dental fluorosis examination and questionnaire survey, and logistic regression and classification tree model were used to analyze the influencing factors of dental fluorosis in children.Results:A total of 3 795 cases children aged 8 to 12 years old were investigated, and 1 001 cases of dental fluorosis were detected, and the detection rate of dental fluorosis was 26.38% (1 001/3 795). The results of logistic analysis showed that age [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.193, 95% confidence interval ( CI): 1.115 - 1.277], high urinary fluoride (1.84 - 19.40 mg/L, OR = 1.510, 95% CI: 1.169 - 1.952) and the number of permanent residents at home ≥6 ( OR = 1.377, 95% CI: 1.090 - 1.739) were risk factors of dental fluorosis in children; and the mother's with higher education level (college degree or above, OR = 0.664, 95% CI: 0.441 - 0.999), the years of water improvement ≥5 years (5 - < 10 years, OR = 0.193, 95% CI: 0.157 - 0.238; ≥10 years, OR = 0.254, 95% CI: 0.193 - 0.333) were protective factors of dental fluorosis in children. The results of classification tree model analysis showed that the years of water improvement contributed the most to the prevalence of dental fluorosis among children in the drinking-water-borne fluorisis areas with qualified drinking water, followed by age, number of permanent residents at home and urinary fluoride. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of logistic regression model and classification tree model were 0.730 (95% CI: 0.711 - 0.748) and 0.721 (95% CI: 0.702 - 0.739), respectively, with good fitting effect. Conclusion:The detection rate of children's dental fluorosis in the drinking-water-borne fluorosis areas with qualified drinking water is mainly related to the years of water improvement, age, the number of permanent residents at home and urinary fluoride.

Objective Constructing a risk prediction model of IgA nephropathy proteinuria treated by traditional Chinese medicine based on random survival forest model,Screening prognostic risk factors of IgA nephropathy proteinuria.Methods Collecting retrospectively clinical data of 129 cases diagnosed with IgA nephropathy,randomly divided them into training set(60%)and test set(40%).The risk prediction model of IgA nephropathy proteinuria was constructed in the training set with the random survival forest model,and the prognostic risk factors were screened by VIMP method.The accuracy of risk prediction model was validated in the test set with time-dependent ROC curve(tdROC).Results According to the result of VIMP,the prognostic risk factors for IgA nephropathy proteinuria are in the order of eGFR,hypertension,traditional Chinese medicine,24 hUPRO>1 g,genomo sclerosis ratio,Lee grading,fat,hyperlipidemia,hypertrophymia,hyparmane ledmia,Anemia,age and gender.The eGFR was negatively and non-linearly associated with the risk rate of developing persistent proteinuria.Glomerulosclerosis ratio greater than 0.3 is approximately linearly and positively associated with the risk rate of persistent proteinuria.Conclusion Random survival forest model has good predictive performance in the risk prediction model of IgA nephropathy proteinuria treated by traditional Chinese medicine.This risk model can determine the result of IgA nephropathy treated by traditional Chinese medicine,and which is helpful for clinical follow-up monitoring and formulation of individualized treatment plans.

Objective To investigate the situation of drinking water fluorosis in Tianjin, to study the benchmark dose of urinary fluoride, and to provide a reference for the formulation of the standard for urinary fluoride. Methods Three fluorosis endemic areas were selected in Tianjin, and three villages in each area were selected in this study. The water fluoride was detected, and the prevalence of dental fluorosis and the urinary fluoride of children aged 8-12 years old were investigated. Results The prevalence of dental fluorosis and urinary fluoride content in children in the villages with water fluoride exceeding the standard were significantly higher than those in the villages with water fluoride qualified, and the difference was statistically significant (χ²=88.821, P＜0.001; Z=6.089, P＜0.001). The analysis of the prevalence of dental fluorosis in children showed that the younger the age, the lower the prevalence and severity of dental fluorosis (χ²_trend=14.584, P<0.001; χ²_trend= 20.525, P<0.001). There were no significant differences in the prevalence and severity of dental fluorosis among children of different genders (χ²=0.736, P=0.391; χ²=3.649, P=0.456). There were significant differences in urinary fluoride between children with different ages and genders (H=14.768, P=0.011; Z=-2.526, P=0.012). According to the level of urinary fluoride, the children were divided into 5 groups. With the increase of urinary fluoride concentration, the prevalence of dental fluorosis gradually increased and the difference was statistically significant (χ²_trend=16.348, P<0.001), showing a dose-effect relationship. Based on the prevalence of dental fluorosis in children, BMDS was used to calculate the BMD and BMDL, which were 2.20 mg/L and 1.54 mg/L, respectively. Conclusion The water reform and fluoride reduction in Tianjin has achieved certain results. There is a dose-effect relationship between urinary fluoride and prevalence of dental fluorosis in children, and the reference dose value is slightly higher than the current standard, suggesting that the current standard can be updated timely.
