This paper introduces an ECG real time monitoring system based on LabVIEW.With Wavelet transformation,the original ECG signals are processed to increase the accuracy of R peak detection.The feature of real time in this system is ensured by the application of simplified algorithm.The result panel offers various types of HRV information in time domain,including numerical and graphical displays which make the data more intuitional and more convenient to obtain.The system runs well in lab and the result is acceptable.

ObjectiveTo investigate and compare the prevalence,awareness and risk factors of chronic kidney disease (CKD) between urban and rural population in Guangxi province in order to provide information for prevention and treatment of CKD.MethodsBy a stratified multistage random sampling method,18 to 74 years old residents in Guangxi province were surveyed. They wereevaluatedbyquestionnaire,urinaryalbumin/creatinineratio, hematuria (microscopic examination of centrifuged urine sediment),kidney B-mode ultrasound,and abnormal results were reviewed 3 months later.Estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) was calculated with the simplified MDRD equation modified by a Chinese coefficient.The risk factors associated with CKD were also investigated.Results There were no significant differences between urban and rural residents in the prevalence of albuminuria (5.22％ vs 5.47％) and hematuria (1.07％ vs 1.11％)(all P＞0.05).The prevalence of renal lithiasis in rural residents was significantly higher than that in the town(10.54％ vs 6.95％)(P＜0.05).The decreased renal function between urban and rural residents(3.87％ vs 4.04％,P＞0.05) had no significant difference.The prevalence of CKD was 9.58％ in urban and 9.42％ in rural(P＞0.05).The prevalence of albuminuria according to the age distribution was different between urban and rural,which increased along with the age in urban but showed two peaks(30-40 years old and 60-74 years old) in rural.Based on logistic regression analysis,the risk factors for albuminuria were diabetes,hyperuricemia,the history of cardiovascular disease,chronic tonsillitis and HBsAg positive.The risk factors for kidney function decline were age,hyperuricemia,hypertension,diabetes,renal lithiasis and history of cardiovascular disease.The awareness rate of CKD in urban was significantly higher than that in rural (14.45％ vs 6.27％,P＜0.05).Conclusions The prevalenceof CKD has no significant difference between urban and rural in Guangxi province.The awareness rate of CKD in urban is significantly higher than that in rural.It is needed to enhance the prevention and treatment of CKD in rural.

Objectives:To report a V-shape bichannel endoscopy(VBE)system and evaluate the preliminary clinical effects of VBE assisted transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion(VBE-TLIF).Methods:20 patients with lumbar diseases underwent VBE-TLIF surgery in our hospital from January 2020 to April 2021 were retrospectively reviewed.There were 13 males and 7 females,with a mean age of 57.0±11.7 years old(28-77 years old).The operative time and complications were collected,and visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,Oswestry disability index(ODI)before surgery and at 3d,3,6,12 and 18 months after surgery were recorded to evaluate the relief of patients'symptoms.And also,modified MacNab's criteria and radiological examination results at final follow-up were analyzed to to evaluate the overall satisfactory and fusion rate.Results:The average follow-up time of 20 patients was 27.0±3.6 months(22-36 months),and the clinical symptoms of patients relieved significantly.The average VAS leg pain score and VAS back pain score reduced respectively from 6.3±1.6 and 5.7±1.1 before operation to 1.9±0.9 and 2.3±0.8 at 3d postoperatively,and further to 0.7± 0.6 and 0.9±0.7 at 18 months after the surgery,and both with significant differences(P＜0.05).Comparing with the preoperative average ODI[(60.2±15.3)％],the ODI at the 18th month after surgery was(15.0±5.8)％,and the difference was with statistical significance(P＜0.05).There was one patient experienced transient hip flexion weakness and improved after one month of symptomatic treatment;One patient experienced cage immigration causing nerve root irritation and underwent reoperation,the fusion rate was 95％(19/20);No serious operation related complications occurred.The overall excellent and good rate was 95％by modified MacNab's criteria.Conclusions:VBE-TLIF is a safe and effective minimally invasive lumbar fusion technique,and its primary clinical application is satisfactory in outcomes.

Non-conventional yeasts such as Yarrowia lipolytica, Pichia pastoris, Kluyveromyces marxianus, Rhodosporidium toruloides and Hansenula polymorpha have proven to be efficient cell factories in producing a variety of natural products due to their wide substrate utilization spectrum, strong tolerance to environmental stresses and other merits. With the development of synthetic biology and gene editing technology, metabolic engineering tools and strategies for non-conventional yeasts are expanding. This review introduces the physiological characteristics, tool development and current application of several representative non-conventional yeasts, and summarizes the metabolic engineering strategies commonly used in the improvement of natural products biosynthesis. We also discuss the strengths and weaknesses of non-conventional yeasts as natural products cell factories at current stage, and prospects future research and development trends.

Objective To explore the difference in lumbar proprioception between the youth and the elderly, and the male and the female. Methods From September to November, 2017, 58 elderly aged 65 to 80 years and 56 youth aged 20 to 30 years were randomly picked up from the community. Their lumbar proprioceptions were measured by Con-Trex isokinetic dynamometer. The absolute error angles of lumbar flexion and extension in passive replication test was used to assess lumbar proprioceptive function. Results The absolute error angles of passive replication test were less on youth proprioception than on elderly ones (t > 4.218, P < 0.001), either in men or women (t > 2.844, P < 0.001), and was not different between men and women neither in the elderly group nor in the youth group (t < 1.473, P > 0.05). Conclusion The lumbar proprioception in the elderly was obviously inferior to that of the youth, both men and women. There was no gender difference between men and women in lumbar proprioception, both elderly and youth.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the intervention effect of kushenol F （KSC-F） on ulcerative colitis （UC） mice. METHODS Totally 30 male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into the normal group， model group， positive drug group （sulfasalazine， 703 mg/kg）， KSC-F 50 mg/kg group （KSC-F50 group）， and KSC-F 100 mg/kg group （KSC-F100 group）， with 6 mice in each group. Except for the normal group， the mice in the remaining groups were given 3% dextran sulfate sodium solution continuously for 7 days to induce UC model. Concurrently， administration groups received corresponding drug solution intragastrically， once a day， for 10 consecutive days. During the experiment， the changes in body weight and bowel movements of the mice were observed. Disease activity index scoring was performed after the last administration. The histopathological morphology of colonic tissue was examined. The levels of inflammatory factors in the serum and colon tissue were measured. Additionally， the mRNA expression of inflammatory factors， and the protein expressions of inflammation-related proteins [interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， forkhead box O1（FOXO1）， phosphoinositide 3-kinase（PI3K）， phosphorylated PI3K（p-PI3K）， p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase（p38 MAPK）， phosphorylated p38 MAPK（p-p38 MPAK） and phosphorylated protein kinase B（p- Akt）] were determined in colonic tissue. RESULTS KSC-F could alleviate weight loss and colonic tissue damage in UC mice. KSC- F reduced the levels of IL-1β， IL-6， IL-8 and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in serum， as well as IL-1β， IL-6， IL-17 and TNF- α in colonic tissue to varying degrees and increased the levels of IL-10 in both serum and colonic tissue （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Moreover， KSC-F decreased the expression levels of IL-1β， IL-17 and TNF-α mRNA， as well as p-PI3K， p-p38 MAPK， and p- Akt proteins in colonic tissue to varying degrees， and increased the expression levels of IL-10 mRNA and FOXO1 protein in colonic tissue （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS KSC-F effectively alleviates UC symptoms in mice by inhibiting PI3K， Akt and p38 MAPK activation， mitigating the release of pro-inflammatory factors such as IL-1β， IL-6， TNF- α，promoting the anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 secretion， and reducing inflammation-induced colonic tissue damage.
