Objective To analyze projects funded by NSFC and SCI paper publication in orthopedic research field (Code:H06) from 2010 to 2016,the current research status and development trend in this field were reviewed and discussed.Methods The data of the projects and funding subsidized by NSFC in orthopedic research field from 2010 to 2016 were collected and analyzed;the papers published were collected by searching in the Web of Science core collection by orthopedics as keyword (article included,conference abstract and book chapters excluded;data collected by December 25,2016) and compared for analyzing the global and China's SCI papers publication in orthopedic field and the role of NSFC in it.Results During the period of 2010 to 2016,1603 projects were funded by NSFC in orthopedic field and the total subsidy fund reached ￥ 730 850 000 (direct funding reported in 2015 and 2016);821 projects of General Program were funded and subsidy fund amount to ￥481 490 000;567 projects of Young Scientists were funded ￥ 118 130 000;130 projects of Fund for Less Developed Regions were funded ￥ 56 040 000;12 projects of Key Program were funded ￥ 33 560 000;3 projects of Distinguished Young Scholars were funded ￥ 7 500 000;5 projects of Outstanding Young Scholars were funded and funding up to ￥ 5 900 000.In the past seven years,the volume of SCI papers published in the world exceed 1 million per year and the papers from the orthopedics field accounted for 0.7％ to 0.8％,ranked 54.The number of SCI papers published by Chinese institutions in the field increased year by year and country ranking climbed to No.3 in 2016 from No.8 in 2010.Among these SCI papers from Chinese institutions,the number of the papers from NSFC grants also increased year by year,ranked Top One in Chinese founding agency for 7 consecutive years.Conclusion In recent years,with the increasing of NSFC budget,the orthopedic research has been developed rapidly,but it still needs to be further strengthened in the advanced talents and high-level research.

The accepted and supported items of National Natural Science Foundation related to biomarker research in laboratory medicine during 2010 to 2014 were summarized. The grants were categorized according to the biochemistry property of biomarkers and disease type .The features in the past 5 years were analyzed and the issues worth noticing for further research were also pointed out .

Objective To have a global view of research field distribution and the development of research team in the field of“pathogenic microorganism and infection”by analyzing the projects submitted and funded by National Natural Science Foundation of China(NSFC)in 2014. Methods Several items in-cluding funding categories,applicants,research objectives,secondary codes,registered institutions and grants were statistically analyzed. Results The funded projects were mainly focused on the field of viruses. The numbers and rates of funded projects hosted by male applicants were higher than those by female ones. Applicants who were clinicians were poorly sponsored as compared with scientists. The academic levels of the registered institutions were unbalanced. More than 40% of the funded projects were applied by researchers from the top 10 registered institutions in number of sponsored applications. Conclusion The quality of the projects applying for the National Natural Science Fund has been keeping increasing. The scientific research-ers are young and highly educated. The scope of registered institutions have expanded. The research field is widely covered. Academic misconduct still exists.

It is of great significance to analyze the configuration of programs funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China using funding data in the field of preventive medicine from 2007 to 2021. The analysis mainly focused on the funding status of the program, funding amount, funded institutions and personnel. A total of 5 349 programs in the discipline of preventive medicine were funded over the last 15 years. The funding amount in this discipline accounted for a relatively low proportion in the total funding amount of the Department of Medical Sciences and this proportion also showed a decreasing trend. Non-infectious disease epidemiology, human nutrition, and health toxicology were the top three subdisciplines of all funded programs in preventive medicine. The proportion of programs led by young scholars was gradually rising over the years, and young scholars were playing an increasingly influential role in scientific research. The funding status among each subdiscipline and institution also varied. The results of this study reflected the thriving of preventive medicine. Meanwhile, some problems and dilemmas were also revealed in its current development. Hopefully, this study could provide valuable information for institutions and preventive medicine researchers to apply for National Natural Science Foundation, and promote the long-term development of preventive medicine in the future.

At present , laboratory medicine has become one of the fastest growing subjects in the field of medicine.The development of laboratory medicine directly led to the improvement of diagnosis and the increase of test methods in clinic .The data of project applications and grants of the National Natural Science Foundation of China in the field of laboratory medicine from 2014 to 2017 were reviewed and summarized.The future prospect was also analyzed to provide references for related researchers in this field .

We analyzed the data of application and funding projects of the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) during 2010-2016 in the field of burns and plastic surgery and summarized the NSFC funding pattern, the research hotspots, and weaknesses in this field. The NSFC has funded 460 projects in the field of burns and plastic surgery, with total funding of RMB 227.96 million. The scientific issues involved in the funding projects include orthotherapy against malformations, wound repair, basic research of burns, skin grafting, scars prevention, and regeneration of hair follicle and sweat glands. The research techniques involved in the funding projects are diversified. NSFC plays an important role in the scientific research and talents training in the field of burns and plastic surgery.

Claudins (CLDN) 18.2, a member of transmembrane protein family, belongs to a subtype of the tight junction protein family. It is highly expressed in a variety of tumor tissues of digestive system, but rarely expressed in normal tissues. Therefore, it is a potential new target for targeted therapy and immunotherapy. Abnormal expression of CLDN18.2 can damage epithelial cells and endothelial cells, which plays an important role in the invasion and metastasis of a variety of malignant tumors of epithelial origin. The expression level of CLDN18.2 is significantly increased in gastric cancer, esophageal cancer and other malignant tumors of digestive tract, which indicates the possible key role of CLDN18.2 in the progression of tumors. Therefore, CLDN18.2 can be used as potential therapeutic targets. This article reviews the role of CLDN18.2 in basic research and clinical applications of digestive tumors.
