Objective:
To identify the clinical and immunological characteristics of pediatric antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) patients with pulmonary embolism.
Method:
Among 47 pediatric APS patients from Peking Union Medical College Hospital during the year of 2000 to 2015, 12 patients were diagnosed of pulmonary embolism, who were investigated and compared with APS patients without pulmonary embolism.
Result:
Twelve patients (among whom 6 cases were primary and the other 6 were secondary APS)had pulmonary embolism and all of them were non-shock type, which was the first presenting manifestation in 6 of them.Eight cases were misdiagnosed as infection, while 3 cases were missed.Among patients with pulmonary embolism, 10 patients suffered from deep vein thrombosis at the same time, mainly in lower extremities.2 cases had thrombotic recurrence, which happened only in primary APS patients, because of irregular monitoring of International Normalized Ratio, or not taking aspirin after quitting warfarin.Positive anticardiolipin (ACL) and lupus anticoagulant (LA) were found in 10 and 9 patients respectively.Four primary APS patients had positive anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA). During follow-up of 3-100 months (median 23 months) of primary APS, no one had evolved manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus.Primary APS was more often seen in males (M∶F 5∶1

Objective:To investigate the relationship between double-triggering and abnormal movement of air in the lungs (pendelluft phenomenon) under pressure support ventilation (PSV).Methods:A prospective observational study was conducted, postoperative patients admitted to department of critical care medicine of Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University from April 1, 2019 to August 31, 2020 and received invasive mechanical ventilation with PSV mode were enrolled. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) monitoring was performed. Airway pressure-time, flow-time, global and regional impedance-time curves were synchronously collected and analyzed offline. The volume of abnormal movement of air in the lungs at the beginning of inspiration was measured and defined as pendelluft volume. Double-triggered breaths were identified by trained researchers. Pendelluft volume during double-triggering was measured including the first triggered breath, the double-triggered breath, and the breath immediately following the double-triggered breath. Pendelluft volume was also measured for normal breath during the study. According to the frequency of double-triggering, patients were divided into severe (≥1 time/min) and non-severe double-triggering group. Pendelluft volume, parameters of respiratory mechanics, and clinical outcomes between the two groups were compared.Results:In 40 enrolled patients, a total of 9 711 breaths [(243±63) breaths/patient] were collected and analyzed, among which 222 breaths (2.3%) were identified as double-triggering. The Kappa of interobserver reliability to detect double-triggering was 0.964 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.946-0.982]. In 222 double-triggered breaths, pendelluft volume could not be measured in 7 breaths (3.2%), but the pendelluft phenomenon did exist as shown by opposite regional impedance change at the beginning of double-triggered inspiration. Finally, pendelluft volume was measured in 215 double-triggered breaths. Meanwhile, 400 normal breaths (10 normal breaths randomly selected for each patient) were identified as control. Compared with normal breath, pendelluft volume significantly increased in the first breath, the double-triggered breath, and the following normal breath [mL: 3.0 (1.4, 6.4), 8.3 (3.6, 13.2), 4.3 (1.9, 9.1) vs. 1.4 (0.7, 2.8), all P < 0.05]. Patients in severe double-triggering, pendelluft volume of normal breath and double-triggered breath were significantly higher than those in non-severe double-triggering group [mL: 1.8 (0.9, 3.2) vs. 1.1 (0.5, 2.1), P < 0.001; 8.5 (3.9, 13.4) vs. 2.0 (0.6, 9.1), P = 0.008]. Patients in severe double-triggering group had significantly higher respiratory rate than that in the non-severe double-triggering group (breaths/min: 20.9±3.5 vs. 15.2±3.7, P < 0.001). There were no significant differences in other respiratory mechanics parameters and main clinical outcomes between the two groups. Conclusions:During PSV, the abnormal movement of air in the lungs (pendelluft phenomenon) was more likely to occur in double-triggering especially in double-triggered breath. The more frequent the double-triggering occurred, the more serious the pendelluft phenomenon was. A higher pendelluft volume of normal breath and a higher respiratory rate were related to severity of double-triggering.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation of ADPRT rs1136410 polymorphism with the occurrence of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Han nationality from northern Jiangsu. METHODS: A total of 283 patients with primary NSCLC of Han nationality in Northern Jiangsu were selected from the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University during Nov. 2015-Dec. 2018 as NSCLC group. A total of 210 healthy subjects underwent physical examination were included in control group. PCR-RFLP was utilized to determine the genotypes at ADPRT rs1136410 locus. Logistic regression model was used to evaluate the effect of polymorphism and its interaction with smoking on the occurrence of NSCLC. RESULTS: There was no statistical significance in age and gender between 2 groups (P>0.05). The proportion of smoker in NSCLC group was significantly higher than control group (P<0.05). TT, TC and CC genotypes were detected at rs1136410 locus of ADPRT gene. The frequency of TT, TC and CC genotype were 41.9%,44.8% and 13.3%, and those of allele T and C were 64.3% and 35.7% in control group. The frequency of TT, TC and CC genotype were 21.6%, 50.2% and 28.2%, and those of allele T and C were 46.6% and 53.4% in NSCLC group, respectively. The frequencies of genotypes in 2 groups were in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P>0.05), while there was significant difference in genotype and allele frequencies between 2 groups (P<0.05). Compared with TT genotype, the risk of NSCLC in individuals carrying TC and CC genotypes raised by 1.179, 3.122 folds [ORTC=2.179, 95%CI (1.435, 3.309), P<0.05; ORCC=4.122,95%CI(2.401,7.075),P<0.05]. Compared with individuals carrying TT genotype, the risk of NSCLC occurrence in non-smokers carrying TC and CC genotypes increased by 0.371, 1.328 fold [ORTC=1.371,95%CI (0.927,3.428),P<0.05; ORCC=2.328,95%CI (1.249,4.622),P<0.05]; and the risk of NSCLC occurrence in smokers carrying TC and CC genotypes increased by 0.928, 2.182 folds [ORTC=1.928,95%CI (1.257,2.957), P<0.05;ORCC=3.182,95%CI (1.760,5.754), P<0.05]. CONCLUSIONS: The rs1136410 locus mutant genotype of ADPRT gene is the risk factor of NSCLC in Han nationality from Northern Jiangsu, and smoking raises this risk of NSCLC occurrence in individuals with mutation genotypes of ADPRT rs1136410.

Understanding the regulatory networks for germ cell fate specification is necessary to developing strategies for improving the efficiency of germ cell production in vitro. In this study, we developed a coupled screening strategy that took advantage of an arrayed bi-molecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) platform for protein-protein interaction screens and epiblast-like cell (EpiLC)-induction assays using reporter mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Investigation of candidate interaction partners of core human pluripotent factors OCT4, NANOG, KLF4 and SOX2 in EpiLC differentiation assays identified novel primordial germ cell (PGC)-inducing factors including BEN-domain (BEND/Bend) family members. Through RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, and ATAC-seq analyses, we showed that Bend5 worked together with Bend4 and helped mark chromatin boundaries to promote EpiLC induction in vitro. Our findings suggest that BEND/Bend proteins represent a new family of transcriptional modulators and chromatin boundary factors that participate in gene expression regulation during early germline development.
