Tolylene Diisocyanate (TDI) is the important industrial material in producing polyurethane dope. In recent years, with the development of fitment, polyurethane product was widely used. During the procedure in production and usage, TDI is dissociated from polyurethane production and will pollute indoor air. TDI is highly volatile and can irritate the skin, mucous membranes, eyes, nose and throat. The most common and most serious response occurs in the lungs. Thus, in many countries, the limit for TDI has been established and put into practice, in China the work for establishing limit for TDI in indoor air has been doing also. The character of TDI and harmfulness to human, the limit for TDI in indoor air in China and in the other countries, the measurements to control TDI pollution were reviewed in the present paper

Objective To investigate the effects of transient receptor potential cation channel 6 (TRPC6) on the expression of nephrin, desmin and caspase 9 and on the apoptosis of podocytes in a mouse model of podocyte injury induced by TGF-β1.Methods Conditionally immortalized mouse podocytes were cultured in vitro and divided into four groups: control, TGF-β1 treatment, TGF-β1+PGPU6/GFP/Neo-TRPC6-mus-581 (TRPC6 knockdown) and TGF-β1+PGPU6/GFP/Neo-NC (negative control).Real-time RT-PCR and Western blot analysis were performed to detect the expression of nephrin, desmin and caspase 9 at mRNA and protein levels, respectively.Flow cytometry was used to analyze the apoptotic rate of podocytes.DAPI fluorescent staining was used to observe the morphological changes of apoptotic podocytes.Results Green fluorescent protein (GFP)-expressing podocytes at 48 hours after transfection were significantly more than those at 24 hours after transfection.The level of TRPC6 in mouse podocytes transfected with PGPU6/GFP/Neo-TRPC6-mus-581 was significantly decreased as compared with that of the control group (P<0.05).No significant difference in the expression of TRPC6 was observed between the negative control group and the control group.Compared with the control group, the TGF-β1 treatment group showed increased expression of desmin and caspase 9 at both mRNA and protein levels (P<0.01), but decreased expression of nephrin at mRNA and protein levels at 48 hours after TGF-β1 intervention (P<0.05).The up-regulated desmin and caspase 9 and the down-regulated nephrin induced by TGF-β1 could be inhibited by the means of TRPC6 knockdown.The apoptosis rate of podocytes in TGF-β1 treatment group was (14.0±2.1)%, while that in TRPC6 knockdown was (10.90±0.56)% (P<0.05).The apoptosis rate of podocytes in negative control group was higher than that in TGF-β1 treatment group (P>0.05).More apoptotic cells with typical morphological features of apoptosis were observed after exposure to TGF-β1 for 48 hours.Conclusion TGF-β1 could induce the apoptosis of podocytes, inhibit the expression of nephrin and enhance the expression of caspase 9 and desmin, the possible mechanisms of which may be related to TRPC6 signal pathway.These changes in TGF-β1-treated podocytes could be alleviated by inhibiting the expression of TRPC6, which might have a protective effect on podocyte injury.

Objective:To explore the precision treatment effect of multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis (MDR-PTB) based on the proportion method for drug susceptibility test, and to provide a scientific basis for formulating MDR-PTB treatment plan.Methods:One hundred and eighty patients with MDR-PTB treated in Shenzhen Center for Chronic Disease Control from January 5, 2016 to April 30, 2018 were enrolled. The initial treatment plan after diagnosis was six months of amikacin (AM), pyrazinamide (Z), levofloxacin (LFX), ethambutol (E), prothionamide (PTO) and 18 months of Z, LFX, E, PTO. According to whether proportion method for drug susceptibility test for 10 commonly used drugs was implemented, patients were divided into precision treatment group and empirical treatment group. In the precision treatment group, the treatment plans were adjusted according to the results of the drug susceptibility test. The treatment plans and disease outcomes of the two groups of patients were retrospectively analyzed. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis.Results:Among the 180 patients, there were 113 patients in the precision treatment group and 67 patients in the empirical treatment group. The drug resistance rates of the precision treatment group from low to high were: capromycin (CM) (0, 0/113), AM (2.65%, 3/113) and kanamycin (KM) (2.65%, 3/113), para-aminosalicylic acid (PAS) (7.96%, 9/113), PTO (11.50%, 13/113), ofloxacin (OFX)(38.05%, 43/113), E (39.82%, 45/113), and streptomycin(S) (76.99%, 87/113). In the precision treatment group, the drugs were adjusted for 104 person-times according to the proportion method for drug susceptibility test during the treatment, from low to high: AM (3 person-times), PTO (13 person-times), LFX (43 person-times) and E (45 person-times). The treatment success rate of the precision treatment group was 78.8%(89/113), which was higher than that of the experience treatment group (52.2%(35/67)), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=13.805, P=0.000 2). In the precision treatment group and empirical treatment group, there were no statistically significant differences of alanine aminotransferase elevated (32.3%(31/96) vs 34.0%(18/53)), serum creatinine elevated (4.2%(4/96) vs 5.7%(3/53)), and white blood cell count decreased (24.0%(23/96) vs 22.6%(12/53)) (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The traditional treatment plan based on the proportion method for drug susceptibility test has a high success rate in the treatment of MDR-PTB, which is still a worthy choice.

Based on the analysis of the network layout and functional structure of the central monitoring system,the daily maintenance strategy and common fault maintenance methods were discussed.In terms of function structure,the central monitoring system of inpatient ward was divided into four modules:network architecture,monitoring terminal,central monitoring and data management,which realized the functions of monitoring patients'vital signs,data transmission display,analysis and alarm.In the event of failure of equipment,the source of structural components was analyzed based on the fault phenomenon,and the failure handling was carried out by one by one.In the process of dealing with network faults,the signals before and after the switch were detected and analyzed according to the fault scope.When abnormal results of physiological parameters were found,the factors such as human operation,patient cooperation,and equipment hardware and software failures were considered at the same time.The cause of the failure was eliminated according to the results of the observation and test;the equipment returned to normal service after the failure.Medical personnel and equipment engineers should be familiar with the network layout of the central monitoring system,carry out routine maintenance,carefully make troubleshoot faults in maintenance and standardize operation and constantly improve the operation quality of the central monitoring system.

Objective:To analyze the mutation types and distribution characteristics of thalassemia gene among high-risk populations in Sanya City, and to evaluate the effectiveness of blood routine screening, in order to provide scientific basis for formulating measures for prevention and control of thalassemia in Sanya City.Methods:Retrospective analysis was used to collect detection results and clinical data from high-risk individuals who completed genetic screening for thalassemia at Sanya Materal and Child Health Hospital from January 2019 to August 2021. Mutation types and distribution characteristics of thalassemia gene were analyzed, and the missed detection rate and sensitivity of blood routine indicators [mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH)] were evaluated based on the results of genetic screening for thalassemia.Results:A total of 5 760 high-risk individuals were included in the screening results of thalassemia genes, and 3 868 samples of thalassemia gene mutations were detected, with a detection rate of 67.15%. Among them, there were 2 979 samples with α-thalassemia genetic mutations, with a detection rate of 51.72%; including 2 966 common genotype samples (99.56%), the main genotype was αα/-α 3.7 (20.14%, 600/2 979); 13 rare genotype samples (0.44%), 4 cases of αα/-- THAI, 3 cases of α CD40(AAG>AA-)α/αα, 2 cases of α PPα/αα, and 1 case of Fusion gene/αα, Fusion gene/α WSα, α WSα/α PPα, and α CD40(AAG>AA-)α/α WSα each. There were 340 samples with β-thalassemia gene mutations, with a detection rate of 5.90%; including 336 common genotype samples (98.82%). The β CD41/42/β N genotype was dominant (57.65%, 196/340); 4 rare genotype samples (1.18%), β CD5(-CT)/β N, β IVS-Ⅱ-2(-T)/β N, β IVS-Ⅱ-761(-T)/β N and β Initiation(ATG>AGG)/β N 1 case each. There were 549 samples of αβ-compound type thalassemia, with a detection rate of 9.53%. The α missing recombination β CD41/42 genotype was dominant (61.02%, 335/549). There were a total of 4 226 samples that could be traced back to MCV and MCH. Among them, 3 007 samples were found to have mutations in thalassemia genes through screening, 2 584 cases were found to have abnormalities in the combination of MCV and MCH indicators, and 423 samples were missed in blood routine screening, with a missed detection rate of 14.07% (423/3 007). The missed samples were mainly α static type, accounting for 89.13% (377/423) of the total missed samples. The screening sensitivity of MCV combined with MCH for α-, β- and αβ-compound type thalassemia was 82.65%, 98.07% and 98.15%, respectively. Conclusion:The types of genetic mutations in thalassemia in Sanya City are complex and diverse, and there are certain omissions in the blood routine screening of MCV combined with MCH.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate short-term effectiveness of arthroscopic repair via modified subacromial viewing portal (hereinafter referred to as modified viewing portal) in treatment of LafosseⅠsubscapularis tendon tears. METHODS: A clinical data of 52 patients with LafosseⅠsubscapularis tendon tears, who underwent the arthroscopic repair via modified viewing portal between October 2020 and November 2022 and met the selective criteria, was retrospectively analyzed. There were 15 males and 37 females with an average age of 63.4 years (range, 41-76 years). Twelve patients had trauma history and the other 40 patients had no obvious inducement. The main clinical symptom was shoulder pain and the hug resistance tests were positive in all patients. The interval between symptom onset and admission ranged from 3 to 26 months (mean, 7.2 months). The shoulder pain and function were evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, and University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) score before operation and at 12 months after operation. The shoulder range of motion (ROM) of forward flexion, abduction, and external rotation and the internal rotation strength were measured before operation and at 3 and 12 months after operation. MRI was performed at 3-6 months after operation to assess the tendon healing and the structural integrity and tension of reattached tendon. Patient's satisfactions were calculated at last follow-up. RESULTS: All incisions healed by first intention, no complication such as incision infection or nerve injury occurred. All patients were followed up 12-37 months (mean, 18.5 months). The VAS, UCLA, and ASES scores at 12 months after operation significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( P<0.05). The ROMs of abduction and forward flexion and the internal rotation strength at 3 and 12 months significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( P<0.05); and the ROMs at 12 months significantly improved compared to that at 3 months ( P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference ( P>0.05) in the ROM of external rotation at 3 months compared to that before operation; but the ROM at 12 months significantly improved compared to that before operation and at 3 months after operation ( P<0.05). Thirty-one patients underwent MRI at 3-6 months, of which 28 patients possessed intact structural integrity, good tendon tension and tendon healing; 3 patients underwent tendon re-tear. At last follow-up, 41 patients (78.8%) were very satisfied with the effectiveness, 7 were satisfied (13.5%), and 4 were dissatisfied (7.7%). CONCLUSION Arthroscopic repair via modified viewing portal for Lafosse Ⅰsubscapularis tendon tears, which can achieve the satisfactory visualization and working space, can obtain good short-term effectiveness with low overall re-tear risk.
