Objective: To reveal the molecular biological mechanism of a rare Dc-variant individual using PacBio third-generation sequencing technology. Methods: ABO and Rh blood type identification, DAT, unexpected antibody screening and D antigen enhancement test were conducted by serological testing. The absorption-elution test was used to detect the e antigen. RHCE gene typing was performed by PCR-SSP, and the 1-10 exons of RHCE were sequenced by Sanger sequencing. The full-length sequences of RHCE, RHD and RHAG were detected by PacBio third-generation sequencing technology. Results: Serological findings: Blood type O, Dc-phenotype, DAT negative, unexpected antibody screening negative; enhanced D antigen expression; no detection of e antigen in the absorption-elution test. PCR-SSP genotyping indicated the presence of only the RHCE c allele. Sanger sequencing results: Exons 5-9 of RHCE were deleted, exon 1 had a heterozygous mutation at c. 48G/C, and exon 2 had five heterozygous mutations at c. 150C/T, c. 178C/A, c. 201A/G, c. 203A/G and c. 307C/T. Third-generation sequencing results: RHCE genotype was RHCE 02N. 08/RHCE-D(5-9)-CE; RHD genotype was RHD 01/RHD 01; RHAG genotype was RHAG 01/RHAG 01 (c. 808G>A and c. 861G>A). Conclusion: This Dc-individual carries the allele RHCE 02N. 08 and the novel allele RHCE-D(5-9)-CE. The findings of this study provide data support and a theoretical basis for elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying RhCE deficiency phenotypes.

Sulforaphane is a naturally occurring active substance derived from cruciferous vegetables with potent antioxidant and anticancer properties. Researches have shown that sulforaphane has good bioavailability and can be absorbed by the small intestine through passive transport, followed by excretion in the form of urine via the hydrophobic acid pathway. In addition, since sulforaphane is easy to be absorbed and metabolized, wrapping sulforaphane with nanomaterials can improve its bioavailability and stability, prolong its action time in human body, and better utilize its therapeutic effect. In terms of mechanism of action, sulforaphane can activate Nrf2 and HSF1 signaling pathways, induce the expression of phase II detoxification enzymes HO-1, NADPH, GST and HSP, thus regulating the concentration of oxidative stress ROS in vivo; inhibit NF-κB signaling pathway, thus suppressing the expression of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-6; regulate epigenetic modifications, thus inhibiting HDAC and DNMT, and increasing the concentration of histone H3 and H4. By regulating the expression levels of the above factors, sulforaphane can affect the occurrence and development of cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and other diseases. In recent years, several phase I/II clinical trials have shown that sulforaphane has good drug-generating properties. For example, researchers have found that patients with skin cancer have not shown any health problems and their corresponding functional problems have improved greatly after long-term use of sulforaphane. This suggests that in the future sulforaphane has a very high medicinal potential for the treatment of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. In this paper, we review the pharmacokinetics, target of action and safety of sulforaphane and its research progress in tumor and neurodegenerative diseases to provide a reference for the future application of sulforaphane in the treatment of tumor and neurodegenerative diseases.

Objective:To evaluate the value of 18F-FDG PET metabolic parameters in predicting histopathological grade of soft tissue sarcoma (STS). Methods:From December 2012 to December 2021, 51 patients (26 males, 25 females, age range: 32-84 years) who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging before treatment and confirmed STS pathologically in the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University were retrospectively collected. 18F-FDG PET metabolic parameters SUV max, metabolic tumor volume (MTV), total lesion glycolysis (TLG) and intertumoral FDG uptake heterogeneity (IFH) were measured. Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test was used to analyze the differences in metabolic parameters among different groups and Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation of each metabolic parameter and histological grade. Logistic regression was used to screen and construct the prediction model for high-grade STS. ROC curve was plotted and Delong test was used to analyze the differences among AUCs. Results:The metabolic parameters SUV max, MTV, TLG and IFH were significantly different among French Federation of Cancer Centers Sarcoma Group (FNCLCC)Ⅰ( n=8), Ⅱ( n=10) and Ⅲ ( n=33) grade groups ( H values: 16.24, 10.52, 19.29 and 16.99, all P<0.05), and each metabolic parameter was positively correlated with histological grade ( rs values: 0.58, 0.45, 0.52, and 0.62, all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that SUV max(odds ratio ( OR)=1.27, 95% CI: 1.06-1.51, P=0.009) and IFH ( OR=6.83, 95% CI: 1.44-32.27, P=0.015) were independent risk indicators for high-grade STS. The prediction model constructed by combining SUV max and IFH had better diagnostic efficacy for differentiating high-grade STS with the AUC of 0.93, and the sensitivity of 93.9%(31/33) and the specificity of 16/18, respectively. The AUC of prediction model was significant different from SUV max, MTV, TLG and IFH (AUCs: 0.81, 0.78, 0.86 and 0.85; z values: 2.69, 2.53, 1.94 and 1.97, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The metabolic parameters SUV max, MTV, TLG and IFH are valuable predictors for histological grade of STS. The combination of SUV max and IFH may be a more meaningful method than using each of the above metabolic parameters alone.

Schistosomiasis was once hyper-endemic in Yunnan Province. Following concerted efforts for over 70 years, remarkable achievements have been made for schistosomiasis control in the province. In 2004, the Mid- and Long-term Plan for Schistosomiasis Prevention and Control in Yunnan Province was initiated in Yunnan Province, and the target for transmission control of schistosomiasis was achieved in the province in 2009. Following the subsequent implementation of the Outline for Key Projects in Integrated Schistosomiasis Control Program (2009—2015) and the 13th Five - year Plan for Schistosomiasis Control in Yunnan Province, no acute schistosomiasis had been identified in Yunnan Province for successive 12 years, and no local Schistosoma japonicum infections had been detected in humans, animals or Oncomelania hupensis snails for successive 6 years in the province by the end of 2020. The transmission of schistosomiasis was interrupted in Yunnan Province in 2020. This review summarizes the history of schistosomiasis, changes in schistosomiasis prevalence and progress of schistosomiasis control in Yunnan Province, and proposes the future priorities for schistosomiasis control in the province.

Immmunosuppressants are mainly used to reduce rejection after solid organ transplantation,so as to improve the success rate of organ transplantation.However,long-term use of immunosuppressants can also serious-ly impair the immune function of patients,thereby increasing the risk of viral infection and postoperative complica-tions,leading to transplant failure.Therefore,patients need to use both immunosuppressants and antiviral agents.If some immunosuppressants with antiviral effects are found,the patient's burden of taking medicines will be greatly reduced.Currently,the immunosuppressants with antiviral effect have been focused by researchers.The gradual re-vealing of the antiviral mechanism of these immunosuppressants will help to optimize the treatment plan of postope-rative rehabilitation of organ transplant recipients.Based on the mechanism of rejection of transplanted organ,this paper systematically describes the types of viruses which closely related to infection of organ transplant patients and the molecular mechanism of some immunosuppressants in antiviral aspects,which further provides a new idea for clinical prevention and treatment of viral infection due to organ transplantation.

Objective To evaluate healthcare-associated infection(HAI)status and influencing factors in coronary heart disease(CHD)patients after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)treatment,and construct a risk predic-tion model.Methods CHD patients who underwent PCI in a hospital from May 2019 to October 2023 were retro-spectively selected as the research subjects.Infection status of the CHD patients was analyzed.Patients were ran-domly divided into a modeling set and a testing set in a 7:3 ratio.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression ana-lyses were performed to analyze the data in the modeling set and determine the influencing factors for HAI in pa-tients.R software was used to construct and validate a nomogram model.Results A total of 858 CHD patients were included in the analysis,601 in the modeling set and 257 in the testing set.In the modeling set,41 cases were in the infected group and 560 cases in the non-infected group.The incidence of HAI in CHD patients after PCI treat-ment was 6.88％(59/858).Infection site were mainly upper respiratory tract and urinary tract.A total of 74 pathogens were isolated,including Gram-positive bacteria,Gram-negative bacteria,and fungi being 39,31,and 4 strains,respectively.Multivariate analysis showed that old age,combined diabetes,high grade of New York Heart Association(NYHA)classification,and invasive procedures were all risk factors for HAI in CHD patients after PCI treatment(all P＜0.05),while high mini-nutritional assessment short-form(MNA-SF)score was a protective fac-tor(P＜0.05).The area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve(AUC)of the nomogram predic-tion model constructed based on the above five indicators was 0.894(95％CI:0.815-0.931),with a sensitivity of 89.0％and a specificity of 82.5％.The testing set data validation showed an AUC value of 0.879(95％CI:0.801-0.923),with a sensitivity of 87.5％and a specificity of 81.3％,which were comparable to the modeling set and presented the stability of the model.The H-L goodness of fit test showed no statistical significance(P＞0.05),in-dicating that the model didn't exhibit overfitting.Calibration curve analysis showed that the model had good consis-tency.Decision curve analysis confirmed that the model had practical value in clinical practice.Conclusion The no-mogram model has a good predictive ability for HAI in CHD patients after PCI treatment,and can provide a simple and effective evaluation tool for medical staff to identify HAI high-risk individuals.
