AIM:To study the protective effect of anti-aging Klotho protein on human umbilical vein endothe-lial cells (HUVECs) treated with high glucose (HG).METHODS:HUVECs were cultured in vitro, and divided into PBS control group, 5.5 mmol/L glucose group, 33.3 mmol/L glucose group, 0.1 μmol/L Klotho +33.3 mmol/L glucose group, 1 μmol/L Klotho+33.3 mmol/L glucose group , and 10μmol/L Klotho+33.3 mmol/L glucose group .The viabili-ty of the HUVECs was measured by MTT assay .The content of malondialdehyde ( MDA) , and the activities of lactate de-hydrogenase (LDH), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) in cell culture supernatants were observed . The production of reactive oxygen species ( ROS) in HUVECs was analyzed by flow cytometry .The levels of nitric oxide ( NO) , endothelin ( ET-1 ) , intercellular adhesion molecule-1 ( ICAM-1 ) in HUVEC culture medium were detected by ELISA.The protein expression of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) in the HUVECs was determined by Western blot .RE-SULTS:Compared with PBS control group , 33.3 mmol/L glucose significantly decreased the HUVEC viability , increased ROS, LDH and MDA levels , reduced the activities of SOD and GSH , decreased the NO secretion , and induced the ET-1 and ICAM-1 secretion and the protein expression of NF-κB in HUVECs.When HUVECs were treated with Klotho protein at different concentrations combined with 33.3 mmol/L glucose, the cell viability was increased significantly , the ROS, LDH and MDA levels were decreased significantly , the antioxidant SOD and GSH activities were significantly increased , the se-cretion of NO was increased , but ET-1 and ICAM-1 releases and protein expression of NF-κB were significantly reduced . CONCLUSION:Anti-aging Klotho protein promotes the viability of HUVECs treated with HG , reduces the oxidative dam-age and ROS production , and restores the normal secretory function of HUVECs , thus playing a protective role in vascular endothelial cells through reducing the protein expression of NF-κB.

Objective To investigate the incidence, clinical symptoms, correlative risk factors and prognosis of dysautonomia in patients with severe traumatic brain injury. Methods A total of 142patients with severe traumatic brain injury treated from January 2008 to March 2010 were retrospectively surveyed to compare the clinical features of dysautonomia group and control group. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for dysautonomia. At 6 months post-trauma, the Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS) was used to measure the outcome. Results Of all the patients, 94 patients survived and were followed up. There were 16 patients ( 17% ) diagnosed as dysautonomia depended on clinical symptoms,with statistical difference in aspects of GCS, coma duration, ICU time and average length of stay (ALOS)(P < 0.05). The patients with dysautonomia tended to have poorer outcome ( P < 0.05 ) and showed a positive association with diffuse axonal injury (DAI) ( OR = 11. 25, CI 7.65-16.54 ). Conclusion Dysautonomia has high incidence and is usually severe in patients with severe traumatic brain injury,when DAI may contribute to its occurrence and result in poor prognosis.

Mongolia is a parliamentary republic country in the north of our country. Healthcare system is mainly composed of three parts: state-owned medical institutions, private clinics and mixed-ownership medical institutions, characteris by the wide coverage but uneven resources. Due to the folk customs and climate, diseases of the digestive system are more common, and the main diseases that cause deaths of Mongolian residents are ischemic heart disease, stroke, and liver cancer. Mongolia is located by and culturally related to China, so the development and dissemination of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is likely acceptable to the public. Mongolia’s traditional medicine and TCM have long-term exchanges and influences, promoting each other’s development, which also are protected by Mongolian laws. The concerns such as the inheritance, study and protection of Mongolian traditional medicine, the promotion of non-medicinal therapies restrict the development Mongolian and Chinese traditional medicine. It is recommended that Mongolian and TCM jointly promote the development and dissemination of traditional medicine in the world by cultivating high-level medical talents, increasing research and protection of herbal medicines, and expanding the application of non-drug therapies.

Objective:
To construct a risk prediction model for poly victimization (PV) among rural left behind middle and high school students in Chaoshan, and to evaluate the prediction effect of the model, so as to provide scientific basis for early identification and prevention of PV among students.
Methods:
A questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 005 left behind students, selected from 7 middle and high schools in rural areas of Shantou City and Jieyang City by a stratified random cluster sampling method from January 2020 to September 2021, for the personal, family, external environmental factors, psychological factors (mental resilience, coping approaches, self esteem and social support) and PV situations. R software and Logistic regression were used to screen predictor variables to build a risk prediction model, and the area under the ROC curve (area under the curve, AUC), accuracy, precision, recall, F1 value and calibration curve were used to evaluate the model s effect.
Results:
The incidence rate of PV among left behind middle and high school students was 23.38%. The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that physical illness or disability ( β =1.02), grade retention during the past year ( β =1.31), having no close partner ( β =1.00), self harm intention (seldom: β = 0.58 , occasionally: β =0.79), negative peer behavior ( β =0.90), family member smoking ( β =0.59), criminal offenses of parents ( β =1.04), witnessing school bullying ( β =0.78), house moving ( β =0.58), using venting ( β =0.34) and the coping style of patience ( β =0.28) were positively correlated with PV among left behind children in Chaoshan area, and family support in psychological flexibility ( β =-0.31) was negatively correlated with PV ( P <0.05). A nomogram prediction model was constructed for the meaningful variables included in the multivariate analysis, and the prediction model AUC was 0.88, the accuracy was 82.00 %, the precision was 77.78%, and the F1 value was 43.75%. The calibration plot fitted well, and the model had good discrimination and calibration.
Conclusion
The risk prediction model for left behind middle and high school students with PV has good predictive performance and is helpful for schools and communities to early identify high risk middle and high school students with PV.

Objective To investigate genotyps of Treponema pallidum (Tp) in several cities in Guangxi province. Methods A total of 300 patients with suspected early syphilis were enrolled from STD clinics in Guangxi between January 2012 and July 2016, and tissue fluid samples were collected from skin lesions. Silver staining was performed to detect Tp, and PCR to amplify the Tp polA gene for the diagnosis of early syphilis. Positive samples were subjected to PCR amplification of a 60-bp tandem repeat region within the arp gene, restriction fragment length polymorphism(RFLP)analysis of the tpr Ⅱgene after digestion with Mse Ⅰ enzyme and tp0548 genotyping. Results Finally, 215 patients were diagnosed with early syphilis, including 210(97.7%)patients positive for PCR and 105(48.8%)patients positive for silver staining, and the positive rate significantly differed between the two methods (χ2 = 103.01, P < 0.05). Among the PCR-positive samples, 190 could be genotyped by analysis of three target genes, and 17 genotypes were identified. The genotype 14d/f was predominant (45.3%, 86/190), followed by 15d/f (13.7%, 26/190), 16d/f(11.6%, 22/190), 17d/f(7.4%, 14/190), 13d/f(6.8%, 13/190), 10d/f(4.2%, 8/190), 18d/f(1.6%, 3/190), 16a/f(1.6%, 3/190), 5d/f(1.1%, 2/190), 7d/f(1.1%, 2/190), 12d/f(1.1%, 2/190), 16d/e(1.1%, 2/190), 14a/f(1.1%, 2/190), 9h/c(1.1%, 2/190), 15l/f(0.5%, 1/190), 25a/e(0.5%, 1/190), 15i/f(0.5%, 1/190). Conclusion Tp genotypes are diversified in patients with early syphilis in Guangxi, and the genotype 14 d/f is predominant.
