Objective To explore the predictive effect of depression and impulsivity on suicidal ideation in violent criminals.methods 423 violent criminals were assessed by Self-rating Idea of Suicide Scale(SIOSS),Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and Barratt Impulsiveness Scale(BIS-11).Result sPeople with suicidal ideation accounted for 17.04% of the total number of violent criminals.The scores of the group with suicidal ideation (respectively (4.95±4.82),(56.79±8.68),(12.95±2.29),(19.03±3.91),(28.81±4.95)) were higher than those without suicidal ideation group (respectively (4.95±4.82),(56.79±8.68),(12.95±2.29),(19.03±3.91),(28.81±4.95)) in depression and every dimension of impulsivity(attentional impulsivity,motor impulsivity and non-planning impulsivity) (t=9.49,t=4.61,t=4.04,t=3.88,t=3.08) (all P<0.01).Positive correlation was observed between suicidal ideation,depression and impulsivity(r=0.156-0.628,P<0.01),while sleeping factor was not associated with non-planning impulsivity.According to the multi-factoral regression module,depression and nonplanning impulsivity scores had positive prediction on suicidal ideation(R2=0.419,SIOSS=-2.471+ 0.192× depression+ 0.149× nonplanning impulsivity).Conclusion There is a close relationship in suicidal ideation,depression and impulsivity,meanwhile depression and nonplanning impulsivity can predict the suicidal ideation.

The imprint desorption electrospray photoionization mass spectrometry was employed to locally image the spatial distribution of chemical components in dried tobacco leaves after initial curing. The relative content distribution of different chemical components was obtained in tobacco leaves. The application of imprinting method could transfer tobacco internal compounds to the surface of porous polytetrafluoroethylene plate,which realized the detection and visual analysis of tobacco internal substances. Besides,the imprint desorption electrospray ionization/post-photoionization (Imprint DESI/PI) mass spectrometry imaging technique had the advantages of non-polarity discrimination,soft ionization and high ionization efficiency for plant samples,and could simultaneously detect and image rich compounds in tobacco samples. A total of 40 kinds of chemical components including alkaloids,amino acids,sugars,acids,ketones and phenols were identified based on high resolution mass spectrometry. The results showed that the representative chemical components of tobacco,such as alkaloids,amino acids and sugars,were mainly distributed near the leaf tip from the vertical analysis and at the left and right leaf edges from the horizontal analysis. Amadori compound (1-Deoxy-1-L-proline-d-fructose) was detected,and the content of Amadori was found to be consistent with that of free amino acid (proline). In addition,the technique was further used to study the climate spot disease area of tobacco,and it was found that the compounds had specific distribution in the climate spot area,which further proved the superiority of this method in studying the growth stress of tobacco leaves.

Ovarian cancer has become the most lethal gynecological tumor due to the difficulty in early diagnosis,the late stage when diagnosed and the high recurrence rate.Resistance to platinum-based anti-tumor chemotherapy drugs is an important reason for the poor prognosis of ovarian cancer.circular RNA(circRNA)is more stable than mRNA in cells due to its special structure,and it is involved in the regulation of the occurrence,development and chemotherapy resistance of a variety of tumors.circRNA can be used as a competing endogenous RNA(ceRNA)of miRNA to bind to proteins,and regulates the phenotypic polarization of macrophages,it can also be used as an exosomal circRNA to regulate the sensitivity of platinum resistance in ovarian cancer.circRNA is expected to be a new marker of platinum resistance and a new target for the treatment of platinum resistance.In order to further explore the relationship between circRNA and platinum resistance in ovarian cancer,this article summarizes the recent literature related to circRNA and platinum resistance in ovarian cancer.

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of hepatic artery thrombosis (HAT) after adult orthotopic liver transplantation.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 411 patients who underwent adult orthotopic liver transplantation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi ′an Jiaotong University from December 2011 to July 2018 were collected. There were 328 males and 83 females, aged from 21 to 66 years, with a median age of 46 years. Observation indicators: (1) incidence of HAT and its clinical characteristics; (2) diagnosis of HAT; (3) treatment of HAT; (4) follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient service, telephone interview or WeChat group communication was conducted to detect the incidence of biliary stricture and survival of patients up to August 2018. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages. Survival rate was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results:(1) Incidence of HAT and its clinical characteristics: 11 of 411 patients had HAT after orthotopic liver transplantation with the incidence of 2.68%(11/411), including 10 males and 1 female, aged 44 years(range, 22-63 years). The time to occurrence of postoperative HAT was 4 days(range, 1-15 days). The etiologies of 11 patients included 6 cases of hepatitis B virus-related cirrhosis, 1 case of hapatitis related cirrhosis, 1 case of hepato-cellular carcinoma, 1 case of liver cirrhosis, 1 case of alcoholic hepatitis related cirrhosis, 1 case of wilson disease. All the 11 patients were ABO compatible. The cold ischemic time and warm ischemic time of donor liver were (316±89)minutes and (13±4)minutes, respectively. Type Ⅰ arterial anasto-mosis was conducted in 11 patients. The clinical manifestations included asymptomatic type in 10 patients and sepsis type in 1 patient. (2) Diagnosis of HAT: all the 11 patients were confirmed with HAT by endovascular angiography, including 7 cases showed no arterial flow under Color Doppler ultrasound, and contrast-enhanced ultrasound indicated HAT. Two patients showed increased hepatic artery resistance index under Color Doppler ultrasound, and contrast-enhanced ultrasound indicated 1 case of HAT and 1 case of anastomotic stenosis. One patient showed slow velocity of hepatic artery blood flow and low resistance index under color Doppler ultrasound, and contrast-enhanced ultrasound indicated HAT. One patient showed slight blood flow signals under Color Doppler ultrasound, and contrast-enhanced ultrasound indicated HAT. (3) Treatment of HAT: 11 patients received endovascular therapy. Six patients had HAT completely disappeared after thrombolytic therapy, 5 patients with residual thrombosis continued thrombolytic therapy with microcatheter urokinase. Six patients with complications were improved after symptomatic treatment. HAT completely disappeared after (6.7±2.6)days of treatment and the clinical success rate was 11/11. (4) Follow-up: 11 patients were followed up for 19-1 722 days, with a median follow-up time of 46 days. During the follow-up, 4 patients had biliary stricture and underwent stent implantation. Nine patients survived with 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rates of 75%, 75%, 75%, and 2 patients died.Conclusions:The incidence of HAT after adult orthotopic liver transplantation is low and clinical manifestations are atypical. Contrast enhanced ultrasound can improve diagnosis of suspected thrombosis. Endovascular therapy is safe and effective, which can significantly improve the blood flow of hepatic artery.

Objective Previous studies on the association between lipid profiles and chronic kidney disease(CKD)have yielded inconsistent results and no defined thresholds for blood lipids. Methods A prospective cohort study including 32,351 subjects who completed baseline and follow-up surveys over 5 years was conducted.Restricted cubic splines and Cox models were used to examine the association between the lipid profiles and CKD.A regression discontinuity design was used to determine the cutoff value of lipid profiles that was significantly associated with increased the risk of CKD. Results Over a median follow-up time of 2.2(0.5,4.2)years,648(2.00%)subjects developed CKD.The lipid profiles that were significantly and linearly related to CKD included total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),TC/HDL-C,and TG/HDL-C,whereas low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)and LDL-C/HDL-C were nonlinearly correlated with CKD.TC,TG,TC/HDL-C,and TG/HDL-C showed an upward jump at the cutoff value,increasing the risk of CKD by 0.90%,1.50%,2.30%,and 1.60%,respectively,whereas HDL-C showed a downward jump at the cutoff value,reducing this risk by 1.0%.Female and participants with dyslipidemia had a higher risk of CKD,while the cutoff values for the different characteristics of the population were different. Conclusion There was a significant association between lipid profiles and CKD in a prospective cohort from Northwest China,while TG,TC/HDL-C,and TG/HDL-C showed a stronger risk association.The specific cutoff values of lipid profiles may provide a clinical reference for screening or diagnosing CKD risk.

Objective To observe the influencing factors of early hypocalcemia after microwave ablation(MWA)for treating secondary hyperparathyroidism(SHPT).Methods Data of 82 SHPT patients who underwent MWA were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into hypocalcemia group(n=36)and non-hypocalcemia group(n=46)based on presence of early hypocalcemia after MWA or not.Patients'age,gender,body mass index(BMI),dialysis method,dialysis time and number of lesions were compared between groups,so were baseline blood calcium,blood phosphorus,intact parathyroid hormone(iPTH),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),hemoglobin,albumin,creatinine,uric acid and 2 5-hydroxy vitamin D3.Logistic analysis was performed to screen the influencing factors of early hypocalcemia after MWA.Results Significant differences of dialysis methods,number of lesions,blood calcium,iPTH and ALP were found between groups(all P＜0.05).Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the number of lesions,iPTH and ALP were all independent influencing factors of early hypocalcemia after MWA for treating SHPT(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The number of lesions,iPTH and ALP were influencing factors of early hypocalcemia after MWA for treating SHPT.

This study was aimed to investigate the effects of different stimulatory factors on proliferation and function of cytokine induced killer (CIK) cells. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNC) were separated by Ficoll-Hypacue gradient. According to supplement of different stimulatory factors (CD28 mAb, IL-15 and IL-21), the experiment was divided into five groups:control group (CIK), CB28+IL-15+IL-21 group, IL-15+IL-21 group, CD28+IL-15 group and CD28+IL-21 group. Effects of different stimulatory factors on the proliferation of CIK cells were assayed by an automated hematology analyzer. Changes of granzyme B,perforin and CD107a were detected by flow cytometry. IL-10, IL-12, INF-γ and TNF-α were quantified by ELISA. Cytotoxicities on lung cancer cell line A549, breast adenocarcinoma cell line MFC-7 and human melanoma cell line HME1 were examined by lactate dehydrogenase release method. The results showed that there were significant differences among different groups. The highest proliferation index on days 10 was observed in group CD28mAb, IL-15 and IL-21(255.3 ± 6.3), which was higher than control group, IL-21+IL-15 group and CD28 mAb+IL-21 group (166.6 ± 13.5, 199.4 ± 15.0 and 228.8 ± 16.6) (P < 0.05). The expression of perforin in CD28 mAb+IL-15 group was higher than the other groups. The expression of perforin,GranB and CD107a of costimulatory groups was higher than control group. The cytotoxicities of CD28 mAb+IL-15 group on A549, MFC-7 and HME1 cells (82.2%, 59.3% and 70.6%) were much higher than that of control group (60.9%, 49.6% and 48.4%) (P < 0.05). The highest IFN-γsecretion was found in CD28 mAb, IL-15 and IL-21 groups. It is concluded that there are significant difference of proliferative capacity, cytokine secretion and cytotoxicity after being activated by different stimulatory factors. Adding corresponding stimulatory factors into the culture system displays a great value for target cells culture.

Objective:To produce 68Ga and automatically synthesize 68Ga-labeled drugs based on low-energy medical cyclotron solid target system. Methods:68Zn was electroplated on the surface of the target by electrodeposition. According to the principle of 68Zn(p, n) 68Ga nuclear reaction, 68Zn was irradiated by the 10 MeV medical cyclotron solid target system (30 μA, 30 min) to produce 68Ga, and the activity, nuclear purity, half-life and content of metal impurities of purified product were determined. 68Ga-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-11 and 68Ga-1, 4, 7, 10-tetraazacyclododecane-1, 4, 7, 10-tetraacetic acid- D-Phe1-Tyr3-Thr8-octreotide (DOTATATE) were synthesized automatically using 68Ga respectively, and the quality control analyses of drug properties, concentration, pH, radiochemical purity, sterility and bacterial endotoxin were carried out. Results:The electroplating mass of 68Zn was (43.71±0.87) mg ( n=35), the yield of 68Ga after irradiation was (10.96±0.67) GBq ( n=35), and the measured half-life was (67.64±0.06) min ( n=7). Only 511 keV energy peak was detected by the gamma spectrometer. After purification, (6.85±0.12) GBq ( n=35) of pure 68Ga was obtained, and the purification efficiency was (62.46±0.96)% (non-attenuated correction, n=35). The metal impurity contents of Zn and Fe were (0.18±0.06) and (1.25±0.43) μg/GBq ( n=5), which met the requirements of European Pharmacopoeia. Three batches of 68Ga-PSMA-11 and 68Ga-DOTATATE were automatically synthesized, with the yield, concentration and radiochemical purity of (3.54±0.14) and (2.74±0.20) GBq, (294.97±11.58) and (228.17±16.32) GBq/L, (99.73±0.11)% and (99.45±0.25)%, respectively. Both sterility and bacterial endotoxin were qualified. Conclusion:High-yield and qualified nuclide 68Ga and 68Ga-labeled drugs are successfully prepared through the low-energy medical cyclotron solid target system and the automated purification and synthesis module, which provide a strong guarantee for clinical practice.
