Objective To investigate the expression of anoctamin 1 in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO)and to analyze the functional properties of its ion channel,and to provide experimental basis for study on the physiological function of calcium-activated chloride channel.Methods The whole sequence of anoctamin 1 was obtained by PCR technique and was subcloned into pcDNA3.1 to construct the expression vector pcDNA3.1-anoctamin 1 was transfected into CHO by liposome-mediated transfection and the CHO stably expressing anoctamin 1 were aquired by selection with zeocin. The expression and distribution of anoctamin 1 in CHO were measured by RT-PCR technique and inverted fluorescence microscope.The functional properties of anoctamin 1 were measured with halide-sensitive fluorescence proteins YFP-H148Q/I152L.The PBS buffer solution with calcimycin and high concentration of iodine ion was used as experimental group,andthe PBS buffer solution without calcimycin and high concentration of iodine ion was used as control group.Results The results of digestion and sequencing confirmed that anoctamin 1 was cloned into pcDNA3.1 by electrophoresis and blast. The results of RT-PCR and inverted fluorescence microscope indicated that anoctamin 1 was expressed in CHO. The results of I- influx as measured by halide-sensitive fluorescence proteins YFP-H148Q/I152L showed that anoctamin 1 had the more functional properties of trans-epithelial transporting I-,and the transporting speed in experimental group was higher than that in control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Anoctamin 1 can be expressed highly in the CHO;Anoctamin 1 expressed in CHO has the characteristics of calcium-activated chloride channel.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical value of three-dimensional (3D) skeletal ultrasound mode imaging, 3D helical computer tomography (3D-HCT) and MRI in diagnosing lower limb skeletal malformations of fetal sirenomelia.MethodsSeven fetuses were suspected of sirenomelia with routine prenatal ultrasonography examination. Three-dimensional skeletal ultrasound mode imaging and MRI were used to conifrm the diagnosis, and the results were compared to those of pathology, 3D spiral CT or X-ray after termination. Five of them underwent chromosome examination including chorionic villus or umbilical cord biopsy.ResultsSix fetuses were singletons and one fetus was a conjoined twin. Three fetuses were male, while four fetuses were female. All fetuses with sirenomelia showed varying degrees of skeletal abnormalities: 1 case of typeⅢ, 2 cases of typeⅣ, 3 cases of typeⅤ and 1 case of typeⅥ. No foot was detected in one case and only single foot was detected in other 6 cases. In 7 cases, 3D skeletal ultrasound mode imaging could demonstrate all the lower limb skeletal malformations, including abnormal femur and tibioifbula, single foot or no feet. Prenatal MRI could demonstrate abnormal femur in 4 cases, abnormal tibioifbula in 1case, and no foot malformation. The results of 3D spiral CT after termination were consistent with X-ray and pathological examination results.ConclusionsAs a new imaging technology for detecting fetal skeletal malformations, prenatal 3D skeletal ultrasound mode imaging and postnatal 3D spiral CT both can display fetal bone clearly. They both have important clinical value in diagnosing lower limb skeletal malformations.

Objective: To explore the patterns of health risk behaviors among secondary school students in Shanghai, so as to provide a basis for implementing targeted interventions. Methods: From May to June 2021, 21 junior high schools, regular high schools and secondary vocational schools were selected from Shanghai, and the occurrence of dangerous health behaviors of 6 092 students were investigated in the form of self-filled questionnaires. The clustering analysis of the sample was performed by Ward s departure and peace method. Results: Three types of clustering characteristics were found in this study: being bullied, depression (64.9%), loneliness (48.2%), and insomnia (42.4%) in the high-risk group (1 004, 16.5%); excessive video games (53.1%) and sugary drinks (89.3%) and fried food intake (79.0%) in the medium-risk group (1 585, 26.0%); the low-risk group (3 503, 57.5%) was characterized by extremely low alcohol consumption (0) and smoking (0.4%). The reporting rate on sugary beverage intake, fried food intake, physical activity, malicious teased, solicited, isolated/intentionally excluded, outside the group activities, threatened, kicked/hit/pushed/locked in house, smoking, unhealthy weight loss, playing video game overtime were statistically significant among the three groups ( χ 2=36.74, 41.85, 30.07, 652.68, 334.40, 669.89, 358.84, 233.12, 101.46, 88.45, 230.15, P <0.01) .The difference in reporting rates of loneliness, depression, insomnia and drinking were significant among the three groups (Fisher s test, P <0.01). The majority of junior high school students, general high school students and girls in the high-risk group; boys, general high school students and junior high school students in the excessive video game and unhealthy diet group. Conclusion There are clusters of health-related risk behaviors among secondary school students in Shanghai, focusing on two major aspects: poor lifestyle and mental health. Targeted interventions should be implemented according to the characteristics of health-related risk behaviors clustering to enhance the intervention effect.

Objective To examine the differential expression of plasma circRNA in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and to elucidate the potential role of circRNA in the pathogenesis and progression of T2DM.Methods A total of 33 newly diagnosed T2DM patients who were hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology of Heze Municipal Hospital and 33 healthy subjects with normal glucose tolerance(NC)were enrolled in this study from March 2022 to March 2023.Three subjects with T2DM and 3 with NC were randomly selected from study population and underwent high-throughput sequencing to identify differentially expressed circRNA.Six circRNA with significant differences were selected,and validated in the remaining study population using Real-Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction(RT-qPCR).Bioinformatics analyses were conducted on the differentially expressed circRNA-associated genes,and their interaction with microRNA(miRNA)was predicted.Results Microarray analysis revealed 166 significantly differentially expressed circRNA(FC≥2,P<0.05)in the T2DM group compared with NC group.Among them,137 were up-regulated and 29 were down-regulated.RT-qPCR validation of six circRNA showed that the expression level of hsa_circ_0000705 was significantly higher,while the expression levels of hsa_circ_0005362 and hsa_circ_0042839 were significantly lower in T2DM group,consistent with the microarray results.However,hsa_circ_0117392,hsa_circ_0008311,and hsa_circ_0087641 showed no significant changes.Conclusion Differentially expressed circRNA are present in T2DM patients.Hsa_circ_0005362 was significantly down-regulated and may be involved in the development of T2DM through the regulation of related signaling pathways by targeting miR-128-1-5p.

Objective To construct a nomogram prediction model for major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)within 1 year after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 551 patients with diagnosed ACS and undergoing PCI in Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of Air Force Medical Center from 1 January 2020 to 1 April 2022.According to the occurrence of MACE during 1 year of follow-up,they were classified into MACE group(n=176)and non-MACE group(n=375).Risk factors for the occurrence of MACE in elderly ACS patients within 1 year after PCI were analysed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression,a nomogram prediction model was constructed,and the predictive power of the model was assessed using the area under the ROC curve(AUC).Results The MACE group had significantly higher Gensini score,systemic immune-inflammation index,and GRACE score,but obviously lower prognostic nutritional index than the non-MACE group(P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that recent smoking(OR=2.222,95％CI:1.361-3.628,P=0.010),hyperlipidaemia(OR=1.881,95％CI:1.145-3.089,P=0.013),prognostic nutritional index(OR=4.645,95％CI:2.788-7.739,P=0.001),LVEF(OR=5.177,95％CI:3.160-8.483,P=0.001),systemic immune-inflammation index(OR=5.396,95％CI:3.179-9.159,P=0.001),and preoperative di-agnosis of non-STEMI(OR=2.829,95％CI:1.356-5.901,P=0.006)or STEMI(OR=3.451,95％CI:1.596-7.463,P=0.002)were independent influencing factors for occurrence of MACE after PCI in elderly ACS patients.ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC value of the nomo-gram model for predicting MACE within 1 year after PCI in elderly ACS patients was 0.888.Con-clusion Our developed nomogram model is simple and practical,and can effectively predict the occurrence of MACE within 1 year after PCI in elderly ACS patients.And external validation should be carried out to ensure its generality.

Objective To detect the relative expression level of long non-coding RNA nuclear enriched a-bundant transcript(NEAT)1 in peripheral serum of patients with gastric cancer,and to explore the possibili-ty of its application in the auxiliary diagnosis of gastric cancer.Methods A total of 101 patients with newly diagnosed gastric cancer in Nantong Tumor Hospital from November 2017 to December 2019 were selected as the gastric cancer group,60 patients with benign gastric lesions were selected as the gastric benign lesions group,and 76 healthy people were selected as the control group.The relative expression levels of lncRNA NEAT1,carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)and carbohydrate antigen 19-9(CA19-9)in serum samples of each group were detected,and the correlation between lncRNA NEAT1 and clinicopathological parameters was ana-lyzed.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of lncRNA NEAT1,CEA and CA19-9 alone or in combination.Results The relative expression levels of lncRNA NEAT1 in serum of gastric cancer group,gastric benign disease group and control group were 2.163(1.357,2.843),1.176(0.677,1.381)and 1.063(0.570,1.308),respectively,and the difference was statistically significant(H=52.467,P＜0.001).The relative expression level of serum lncRNA NEAT1 in gastric cancer patients was not related to gender(P=0.353)and age(P=0.382),but was related to tumor size(P=0.031),TNM stage(P=0.037)and lymph node metastasis(P=0.046).The relative expression level of lncRNA NEAT1 in serum of gastric cancer patients was not correlated with CEA and CA19-9(P＞0.05).The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve and sensitivity of lncRNA NEAT1 in the diagnosis of gastric cancer were higher than those of CEA and CA19-9.The combined diagnosis of the three had the highest diagnostic efficiency.Conclusion The relative expression of lncRNA NEAT1 in peripheral blood of patients with gastric cancer is increased,and it is correlated with some clinicopathological parameters.lncRNA NEAT1 may be a new marker for auxiliary diagnosis of gastric cancer.

Objective: To study the effects p-phenylenediamine (PPD) on lung function and health-related quality of life of occupational exposed workers. Methods: This study was based on data from a company that produce hair dye containing PPD in China. Workers who exposed to PPD were selected as the study group, and workers un-exposed to PPD were selected as the control group. Questionnaires on health-related quality of life of workers using the 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) . Occupational health examination assessment results were tested in Taizhou Cancer Hospital. The lung function test includes forced vital capacity (FVC) , forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV_1.0) , and ratio of FEV_1.0 to FVC (FEV_1.0/FVC) . Results: The difference in systolic blood pressure between the PPD exposed group and the control group was statistically significant (P<0.05) . FVC, FEV_1.0, and FEV_1.0/FVC of the lung function indexes in the exposed group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05) . In the health-related quality of life, body pain (P=0.002) , general health (P=0.029) , vitality (P=0.038) , and mental health (P=0.003) were lower in the exposed group than in the control group. Conclusion Occupational exposed to PPD may induce hazard to the workers’lung function and may cause detrimental effect on workers’ health-related quality of life.

Objective: To study the effect of p-phenylenediamine (PPD) on liver and kidney function in occupational exposed workers. Methods: Workers in a hair dye production enterprise which used p-phenylenediamine as a raw material for production were selected as the main research population. Then we conducted a questionnaire survey on the basic conditions of workers and conducted occupational health checkups on general health status, liver and kidney function. Occupational health examination assessment results were tested in Taizhou Cancer Hospital. All data was built using EpiData 3.1 software, and statistical analysis was performed using software SPSS 20.0. Results: The liver function indicators including direct bilirubin, prealbumin, total protein, and white protein, globulin, aspartate aminotransferase, glutamyl transpeptidase, and total bilirubin in the workers exposed to high concentration of PPD were at high normal values, and these indicators were significantly different from low PPD concentration group (P<0.05) . The serum creatinine and serum uric acid in the renal function index were significantly higher in workers exposed to PPD than in workers exposed to low concentrations and in the control group (P<0.05) . Conclusion Occupational exposed to PPD may have a hazard to the workers’ liver and kidney function. Long-term occupational exposure to PPD may lead to increased cumulative exposure of workers, which may cause potential chronic liver and kidney damage in occupationally exposed populations.

Objective: To study the impact of sleep characteristics on myopia, among lower primary school students in Shanghai, so as to provide foundation for the prevention of the onset and development of myopia. Methods: A total of 636 students from the first and second grades of two primary schools in Jiading District, Shanghai, were selected through cluster random sampling for questionnaire surveys and ophthalmological examinations in October 2022. The Childrens Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) was used to assess sleep quality at baseline. Ophthalmological examinations were conducted in October 2023(479), during which the students study time, screen time and outdoor activity time were monitored for twoweek, repeated twice. Generalized multivariable Logistic regression models and linear regression models were employed to examine the association between sleeprelated factors and myopia, as well as the strength of this association. Results: The baseline survey indicated a myopia prevalence of 18.58%, with 17.18% at followup. The average CSHQ total score was (51.58±4.44), and the average daily sleep duration was (9.43±4.84)h/d, with only 11.6% of participants meeting the recommended sleep sufficiency. Multivariable regression models indicated that insufficient sleep showed positive association with myopia (OR=1.64, 95%CI=1.05-2.56), while bedtime duration was significantly negative associated with myopia (OR=0.74, 95%CI=0.63-0.91, P＜0.05), adjusting for confounding factors. Inconsistency in bed rest time was a risk factor for myopia (OR=1.07, P<0.05), and the consistency of bed rest time, and wakeup time showed statistically significant correlations with SE (P<0.05). There was also statistically significant correlations between consistency in sleep time, bed rest time, and wakeup time with AL (P<0.05). Conclusions Insufficient sleep and bedtime duration are correlated with the onset and progression of myopia. It is critical to ensure sufficient sleep duration and regular sleep habits for children to reduce the occurrence of myopia in the primary school students.
