Objective To investigate the status and influencing factors of road traffic injuries among children aged 0-17 in Shashi District, Jingzhou City, and to provide a basis for formulating strategies and measures to prevent road traffic injuries in children. Methods A staged random sampling method was used to select preschool children from 8 communities, and students from 8 primary schools, 8 junior high schools and 4 senior high schools, respectively, in Shashi District of Jingzhou. A questionnaire survey was conducted on the children on road traffic safety, and the incidence of children's traffic injuries and their cognition and behavior were analyzed.  Results A total of 8 299 children completed the survey. The incidence rate of non-fatal road traffic injuries was 1.07%. Children aged 11-15 years had the highest incidence of road traffic injuries among all age groups, accounting for 66.29% of the total injuries, followed by the 16-20 years old group. The main risk factors of road traffic injuries in children were not taking the special lane when riding a bicycle, running red lights, using mobile phones when walking, and not wearing a helmet when riding a motorcycle. Walking was the main way for students to have road traffic injuries.  Conclusion Children's road traffic injuries became a social problem that should not be ignored. Students above fourth grade were the key population for children's road traffic injury intervention in Shashi District. Road traffic safety publicity and intervention should be carried out for children of different ages and genders.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of CD73 in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with NPM1 mutant and wild-type, and to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and prognosis of CD73 to the AML patients. METHODS: 160 patients with AML treated in our hospital from June 2015 to June 2019 were enrolled, and 40 non-AML bone marrow samples from healthy people were selected as controls during the same period. The expression of CD73 in healthy people, NPM1 mutation and NPM1 wild-type AML patients were compared, and the relationship between the expression of CD73 and its clinicopathological characteristics, as while as efficacy in AML patients were analyzed. The patients were followed up, and the influence of CD73 to the prognosis of different AML patients was analyzed. RESULTS: The positive expression rate of CD73 in AML patients (23.75%) was significantly higher than that in the healthy control group (0.62%), and the positive expression rate of CD73 in AML patients with NPM1 mutation (74.75%) was significantly higher than that with NPM1 wild-type (25.51%) (both P<0.001). AML patients with CD73 positive expression was associated with age, FAB typing, disease risk classification, and NPM1 gene mutation (both P<0.05). The overall survival rate of AML patients with NPM1 gene mutation was 75.98%, which was significantly higher than the patients with NPM1 wild-type (34.68%)(P<0.001), the median survival time of AML patients with NPM1 gene mutation in the CD73 CONCLUSION The expression of CD73 was increased in AML patients with NPM1 gene mutation, and CD73 showed different prognostic significance in AML patients with different NPM1 gene mutation. The combination of clinicopathologic features, CD73 expression and NPM1 gene in AML patients is helpful to determine their prognosis and guide the formulation of relevant treatment plans.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the influence of serum levels of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on the therapeutic effect of high-dose cytarabine (HD-AraC) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). METHODS: 98 patients with AML treated in our hospital from January 2019 to June 2020 were selected as the research subjects, all patients were treated with HD-AraC for 1 course of treatment every week. The effect of 2 groups were evaluated during after one course of treatment and divided into effective group and ineffective group, statistical table of baseline data was designed, the baseline data of 2 groups were counted in detail, the baseline data and serum levels of TGF-β1 and EGFR of 2 groups were compared, Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between the levels of serum TGF-β1, EGFR and the therapeutic effect of HD-AraC in patients with AML, the value of serum TGF-β1 and EGFR levels in predicting the therapeutic effect of HD-AraC in AML patients was analyzed based on ROC curve and decision curve. RESULTS: After 1 course of treatment, among the 98 patients, 26 cases had complete remission, 38 cases had partially remission and 34 cases no remission, the total effective rate was 65.31% (64/98); after comparing data of 2 groups, Logistic regression analysis showed that the overexpression of serum EGFR before treatment might be a risk factor for the ineffective treatment of HD-AraC in AML patients (OR>1, P<0.05), overexpression of serum TGF-β1 before treatment might be a protective factor for the ineffective treatment of HD-AraC in AML patients (OR<1, P<0.05); the ROC curve results showed that the AUC of serum EGFR and TGF-β1 before treatment in predicting the risk of ineffective HD-AraC treatment in AML patients were >0.70, which had certain predictive value. The decision curve results showed that in the threshold range of 0.15-044, the prediction model combined with serum EGFR and TGF-β1 levels in predicting the net benefit rate of HD-AraC treatment in AML patients was better than that of serum EGFR or serum TGF-β1 alone. CONCLUSION The levels of serum TGF-β1 and EGFR affect the therapeutic effect of HD-AraC in patients with AML and increase the risk of ineffective treatment, serum TGF-β1 and EGFR can be used to predict the risk of ineffective HD-AraC treatment in AML patients, and the combined prediction of net benefit rate is higher.

Objective To analyze the death characteristics and disease burden of the labor force in Jingzhou City from 2015 to 2018, and to provide a basis for formulating policies to protect the labor force population and propose effective prevention and control measures to reduce the death level and disease burden. Methods The death data of the labor force in Jingzhou City from 2015 to 2018 was collected and statistically analyzed. The death levels, causes of death, and disease burden of the labor force in different years, sexes, ages, and regions were analyzed. Results From 2015 to 2018, the death toll of the labor force accounted for 24.79% of total deaths in Jingzhou City, with a mortality rate of 219.61/100 000 and a standardized mortality rate of 192.17/100 000. There was no significant difference in the mortality rate in different years (P=0.34). The male and female mortality rates were 297.77/100 000 and 139.63/100 000, and the standardized mortality rates were 257.36/100 000 and 119.57/100 000, respectively. The male and female YLL rates were 9.55% and 4.47%, and the standardized YLL rates were 6.75% and 3.12%, respectively. The male mortality and YLL rates were higher than those of the female (P<0.01). The mortality and YLL rate of different age groups increased with age (P<0.01). The mortality rates of urban and rural population were 187.37/100 000 and 229.07/100 000, respectively, the standardized mortality rates were 141.87/100 000 and 208.58/100 000, respectively, the YLL rates were 5.90% and 7.37% respectively, and the standardized YLL rates were 4.13% and 5.20%, respectively. The mortality rate and YLL rate of rural population were higher than those of urban population (P<0.01). The first cause of death in the labor force population was malignant tumor, with the mortality and YLL rate being 87.19/100 000 and 2.90%, respectively. The second cause was injury, with the mortality and YLL rate of 42.60/100 000 and 1.56%, respectively. The leading cause of death was injury in the 15 and 25 years old groups, and malignant tumor in the 35, 45 and 55 years old groups. Lung cancer and liver cancer were the main types of lethal cancers. Transportation accidents and suicide were the main types of lethal injuries. Conclusion The disease burden of the rural labor force was heavy. It is important to strengthen health education for the rural labor force, especially male laborers over the age of 45, and to implement early cancer diagnosis and treatment and injury intervention programs to effectively improve the health of the labor population.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the features of glutamate activity in the limbic system and the effects of glutamate on the activation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis throughout both acute cerebral ischemia and reperfusion.

METHODSThe changes in glutamate content in the nervous cell gap, in corticotrophin releasing hormone (CHR) mRNA expression level in brain tissue, and in adrenocorticotropic hormone in blood plasma at different time-points after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in rats were determined respectively with high-performance liquid chomatography (HPLC) and in situ hybridization.

RESULTSGlutamate content in the hippocampus and the hypothalamus increased rapidly at ischemia 15 minutes, and reached peak value (the averages were 21.05 mg/g +/- 2.88 mg/g and 14.20 mg/g +/- 2.58 mg/g, respectively) at 1 hour after middle cerebral artery occlusion. During recirculation, it returned rapidly to the baseline level. At 24 hours after reperfusion, it went up once more, and remained at a relative high level until 48 hours after reperfusion, and then declined gradually. CRH mRNA expression levels in the temporal cortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus were enhanced markedly at 1 hour ischemia and were maintained until 96 hours after reperfusion. At the same time, adrenocorticotropic hormone level in plasma was relatively increased. In the peak stage of reperfusion injury, there was a significantly positive correlation (n = 15, r = 0.566, P < 0.05) of the glutamate contents in the hypothalamus with the number of cells positive for CRH mRNA expression level in the hypothalamus.

CONCLUSIONIt is probable that the CRH system in the central nervous system is mainly distributed in the limbic system, and glutamate might be one of the trigger factors to induce excessive stress response in the HPA axis.

Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate the association of outdoor physical activity and insomnia symptoms with depressive symptoms in college students, so as to provide a theoretical basis for preventing and improving depression of the college students. Methods: A sample survey of 9 349 college students from 4 colleges and universities in 3 provinces in Hubei, Jiangxi and Chongqing were conducted from November to December 2021. The Patient Health Questionnaire, Insomnia Severity Index and outdoor physical activity questionnaire were used to evaluate the depressive symptoms, insomnia symptoms and outdoor activities of college students, respectively. The χ 2 test was used to compare the difference of the positive rate of depressive symptoms in college students. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the association between outdoor physical activity, insomnia symptoms and depressive symptoms. Generalized linear model was used to analyze the association of interaction effect of outdoor activity and insomnia symptoms with depressive symptoms. Results: The detection rate of depressive symptoms in college students was 37.4%. Significant differences in the detection rate of depressive symptoms were observed among college students with different majors, nationalities,educational backgrounds, family residence, family type, family economic conditions, study burden, number of friends, father s education level,mother s education level( P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that outdoor physical activity ( OR=0.51-0.69, P <0.01) and insomnia symptoms ( OR=6.15-21.30, P <0.01) were associated with depressive symptoms( P <0.01). Generalized linear model showed that insomnia symptoms( B =0.57), outdoor physical activity ( B =-0.15) and their interaction terms ( B =-0.02) were associated with college students depression( P <0.05). Conclusion This study suggests that insufficient time for outdoor physical activity and insomnia symptoms may increase the risk of depressive symptoms in college students. College students with insufficient time for outdoor physical activity and insomnia have a higher risk of developing depressive symptoms.

Objective To evaluate the long-term prognostic value of coronary CT angiography-derived fractional flow reserve(CT-FFR)in elderly patients with coronary heart disease(CHD).Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 1133 patients with clinically suspected CHD from a prospective observational study based on coronary CTA and CT-FFR at the General Hos-pital of Eastern Theater from April 2018 to March 2019,and 330 elderly CHD patients were even-tually included.According to major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)occurred or not,295 patients were assigned into non-MACE group and 35 patients into the MACE group.Based on cor-onary CTA data,plaque features were analyzed and CT-FFR values were measured in all lesioned vessels.The relationship of plaque features and CT-FFR with MACE was evaluated by using Cox proportional risk regression model,Kaplan-Meier survival curve,and ROC curve analyses.Results The patients with coronary stenosis(≥50％)or CT-FFR value ≤0.8 had a higher risk of MACE(P＜0.01).Univariate Cox analysis showed that coronary stenosis ≥50％and CT-FFR value 0.8 were risk factors of MACE(P＜0.01).After adjusting confounding factors,multivariate Cox analysis indicated that CT-FFR ≤0.8(HR=17.037,95％CI:5.060-57.358,P=0.000)was only independent predictor for MACE.The risk prediction model based on CT-FFR presented better performance than the model based on coronary CTA stenosis(C-index:0.820 vs 0.696,P=0.000).Conclusion CT-FFR≤0.8 is an important independent predictor for long-term MACE in elderly CHD patients.Clinical risk stratification based on CT-FFR may optimize prognostic man-agement strategies in these patients.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the safety and efficacy of the perineal rectosigmoidectomy (Altemeier procedure) in the treatment of full thickness rectal prolapse.

METHODSClinical and follow-up data of 52 patients with full thickness rectal prolapse undergoing Altemeier procedure in 9 hospitals from September 2010 to July 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. Of which 38 cases were from Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University, 1 case from Suizhou Central Hospital of Hubei province, 1 case from Jingzhou Second People's Hospital of Hubei province, 3 cases from Wuxue First People's Hospital of Hubei province, 1 case from Jingmen First People's Hospital of Hubei province, 1 case from Tuanfeng County Hospital of Hubei province, 4 cases from Jingzhou Central Hospital of Hubei province, 2 from PLA Rocket Army General Hospital, 1 case from the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University in Jiangsu province. Altemeier operation steps: The line shaped teeth, the prolapsed rectum is first exposed to the anus. In the dentate line proximal 1-3 cm with ultrasonic knife or Ligasure ring outer rectal incision, using electric knife to mark pre resection line in rectal mucosa. Open down in front of the pelvic peritoneum. Incision of the outer intestine and the reduction of the internal rectum and part of sigmoid colon. To free and remove excess pelvic retroperitoneal, pelvic peritoneum and be at the top of the colon or rectum anterior pelvic reconstruction suture. The rear of the levator ani muscle forming rectum. Pull gently to the anus and rectum and sigmoid, in the absence of tension, 2-3 cm outside the anus was selected as the proximal inner bowel pre resection line, along the line of pre transection of proximal bowel resection, again the broken end of intestine full-thickness end-to-end anastomosis. Postoperative complication and recurrence were summarized. Gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI), Wexner constipation score and Wexner fecal incontinence score were used to evaluate the efficacy.

RESULTSAll the 52 patients were beyond moderate full thickness rectal prolapse. Thirty-one were male and 21 were female with age ranging from 22 to 83 (average 53) years. The length of prolapsed rectum was 6 to 20 (average 9) cm and course of disease was 0.5 to 46(average 19.5) years. No perioperative death. Five patients (9.6%) had postoperative complications, including 2 anastomotic bleeding, 1 wall portion dehiscence of anastomosis, 1 anastomotic stenosis, and 1 malnutrition. Recurrence rate was 9.6%(5/52) within the long-term follow-up of 5 to 71 (median 40) years. Compared with the preoperative results, Wexner constipation score and Wexner fecal incontinence score decreased obviously (2.1±1.4 vs. 4.6±3.4, 4.8±4.1 vs. 6.8±4.1), and GIQLI significantly increased from 99.6±8.0 to 103.0±9.1 (all P<0.05) at 6-month after operation. Above 3 scores were sustained and continuously improved at 12-, 24-, and 36-month during the follow-up (all P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONAltemeier procedure possesses good efficacy with low morbidity of complication and recurrence in the treatment of full thickness rectal prolapse.

Objective:To investigate the effect of image quality, degree of stenosis, calcification, and their first-order interactions on diagnostic performance of coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR).Methods:This is a reanalysis of data from a multi-center retrospective cross-sectional study of CT-FFR in China. A total of 522 patients with suspected or known coronary heart disease [mean age: 61.6 (34.0-83.0) years, 71.8% (354/493) were male] from 11 medical centers including the General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command from May 2015 to October 2019 were enrolled. All patients underwent coronary CT angiography (CCTA), CT-FFR, and invasive FFR examination. Subjective image quality scores of target vessels were recorded on CCTA images, and stenosis was visually assessed at the lesion level. Calcification arc and calcification remodeling index (CRI) were recorded for each lesion. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) were compared. Two-way analysis of variance was used to analyze the first-order interaction effects of image quality, degree of stenosis, and calcification.Results:A total of 493 patients with 629 lesions with invasive FFR as a reference were included in the study. The overall sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of CT-FFR were 80.4%, 93.8%, and 88.6%, respectively. The specificity (95.0% vs. 87.3%, χ2=4.11, P=0.043); accuracy (90.1% vs. 81.9%, χ2=6.22, P=0.013); and NPV (89.7% vs. 80.9%, χ2=4.25, P=0.039) of the group with image quality ≥3 was higher than the group with image quality <3. The degree of stenosis affected the sensitivity, PPV, and NPV of CT-FFR and the calcification arc affected the specificity of CT-FFR (all P>0.05). The specificity (95.8% vs. 90.5%, χ2=4.23, P=0.040); accuracy (91.0% vs. 86.1%, χ2=4.01, P=0.045); and NPV (91.1% vs. 83.8%, χ2=5.10, P=0.024) of the group with CRI<1 were higher than that of the group with CRI≥1. In the subgroup of mild and severe stenosis, no calcification, and CRI<1, the accuracy of CT-FFR with image quality ≥3 points were higher than that with image quality <3 points. The accuracy of CT-FFR in the moderate stenosis group was mainly affected by CRI; the accuracy of CT-FFR in the group with CRI<1 was higher than that in the group with CRI≥1 (after Bonferroni correction, P values between groups were statistically significant). Conclusion:Subjective image quality, degree of stenosis, calcification of lesions, and their first-order interactions can all negatively affect the diagnostic performance of CT-FFR.
