Peanuts, corn and other food products are prone to aflatoxins (AF). AF was listed as a human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), especially aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), as it is considered the most prevalent and toxic. China is a big peanut producer, so carrying out pollution investigation and risk assessment in peanuts and their products is crucial to formulate prevention measures, protect export trade and maintain health. This paper summarizes the AF pollution of peanuts and their products in the Huang-Huai-Hai Basin, Yangtze River Basin, Southeast Coast and Northeast region of China from 2015 to 2021, and the application of dietary AF exposure risk assessment methods, providing a basis for strengthening the supervision of AF pollution in peanuts and their products, and ensuring food safety.

BACKGROUND: To assess the balance function of post-stoke patients would be conducive to establish rehabilitative goal and to set up therapeutic plan.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between parameters of three commonly used measures and those of other functional evaluation for patients with post-stroke hemiplegia.DESIGN: Analysis of the relationship between parameters of balance rating scales.SETTING: At otolaryngology department and rehabilitative medicine department of the general military hospital.PARTICIPANTS: From September 2002 to July 2003, totally 57 patients with post-stroke hemiplegia, 45 males and 12 females, aged from 14 to 78years old, with the course of disease ranged from 0. 3 to 11 months, received rehabilitative treatment at rehabilitative department of the general military hospital, were selected to take part in the study. All were confirmed of internal carotid artery system lateral hemispheric disease.METHODS: Three balance measures, namely Berg balance scale, modified Balance subscale of the Fugl-Meyer test and Postural assessment scale for stroke patients were administered on 57 patients for evaluating their lower limb motor function, daily life capability and walking ability after rehabilitative treatments. The relationship between three measures was analyzed with Pearson-correlative analysis, and the relationship between three measures and lower limb motor function, daily life capability and walking ability were also investigated.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① relationship between three measures;② relationship between three measures and lower limb motor function, daily life capability and walking ability.RESULTS: The data from 57 stroke hemiplegic patients was analyzed without missing. ① Scores for Berg balance assessment, Fugl-Meyer balance rating scale and posture controlling scale for stroke patients was 46.70 ± 5. 15, 10. 26 ± 1.58 and 32.56 ± 2.06, respectively, and the scores of lower limb motor function in Fugl-Meyer assessment was 22. 35 ± 5.82,and moving and marching item in functional independence assessment 24.95 ± 5.2, 10 m maximum walking speed(49.06 ±24.68) m/s. The three measures were proved of significantly higher consistency( r = 0.613-0. 766,P ＜ 0.001 ). ② The three measures were also found to be obviously associated with the lower limb motor function, daily life capability and walking ability of patients with stroke( r = 0. 479-0. 718, P ＜ 0. 001 ).CONCLUSION: Berg balance assessment, modified Fugl-Meyer balance rating scale and posture-controlling scale have been proved of higher consistency and efficacy for assessing the balance function of post-stroke patients, thereby can be used as predictor for the balance functional outcomes,as well as the recovery of the lower limb motor function, daily life capability and walking ability of post-stroke patients.

[Objective]To investigate the related risk factors of unstable plaques in extracranial carotid arteries in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular diseases(ICVD).[Methods] Two hundred and eight ICVD patients were enrolled and plaques in extracranial carotid arteries were detected by c(a)rotid color ultrasound.All the patients were divided into unstable plaque group(75 cases)and stable plaque group (133 cases)according to the ultrasound performance.Related disease history and the traditional risk factors of ICVD were recorded.The risk factors with statistical significance were screened out by univariate nonconditional Logistic regression analysis,and then the independent risk factors of unstable plaques in extracnmial carotid arteries were analyzed by multivariate non-conditional Logistic regression analysis.[Results]Univariate non-conditional Logistic regression analysis showed that male,history of hypertension,history of diabetes,smoking were positively correlated with the formation of unstable plaques in extracranial carotid arteries(P＜0.01 or ＜0.05).High density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)was negatively correlated with the formation of unstable plaques in extracranial carotid arteries(P＜0.01).There were no statistical significance in history of coronary heart disease,law of life,family history of hypertension,drinking,family history of stroke and low density lipoprotein cholesterol between two groups(p ＞0.05).Multivariate non-conditional Logistic regression analysis showed that male,history of hypertension,history of diabetes and smoking were the independent risk factors of the formation of unstable plaques in ex tracranial carotid arteries (OR =2.33,7.16,6.15,2.28,respectively,P＜0.01).And HDL-C was the protection factor of the formation of unstable plaques in extracranial carotid arteries(OR=0.84,P ＜ 0.01).[Conclusions] The independent risk factors of the formation of unstable plaques in extracranial carotid arteries in patients with ICVD are male,history of hypertension,history of diabetes and smoking.And HDL-C is the protection factor of the formation of unstable plaques in extracranial carotid arteries in patients with ICVD.It has important significance to take out necessary intervention for patients with risk factors.

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) has the significant characteristics of regional spread and lymphatic metastasis. Radical resection provides the only chance for long-term survival of patients with ICC. Anatomic or extended hepatectomy is the most optimal treatment. The value of hepatic resection with lymph node dissection and the area of lymph node dissection are controversial. Palliative resection improves prognosis of some patients. Secondary hepatectomy also benefits some patients with late (＞1 year) intrahepatic recurrence. Liver transplantation is only performed for highly selected prophase-patients or prudent clinical trials, and a combination with adjuvant treatment such as chemo-radiotherapy after operation is suggested.
