Objective To find out the prevalence of iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) and population iodine nutritional status,and to evaluate the intervention effect of iodized salt during the Twelfth Five-Year Plan period,and to provide a scientific basis for adjusting the intervention programs.Methods One town was selected respectively from the east,the west,the south,the north and the central of the entire city,4 villages were selected from each town,15 residents were selected to determine iodide content by quantitative detection;1 primary school was selected respectively from those 5 chosen towns,40 subjects aged from 8 to 10 years old (half male and half female) in each school were selected to collect urine samples for determination of urinary iodine,and to detect the volume of thyroid by palpation;20 pregnant women were chosen respectively from those 5 towns to detect their urinary iodine content and to determine iodine content of their salt samples,10 pregnant women were selected to investigate their healthy knowledge.Results A total of 300 samples of edible salt were tested,the median of salt iodine was 21.2 mg/kg,coverage rate of iodized salt was 97.7％ (293/300),the consumption rate of eligible iodized salt at household level was 90.3％ (271/300);the median of urinary iodine level was 232.4 μg/L in 200 8-10 years old chindren;232.9 μg/L in 100 pregnant women;the prevalence rate of goiter in children aged 8-10 was 3.0％ (6/200);the healthy knowledge rate of pregnant women was 82.0％ (41/50).Conclusions During the Twelfth Five-Year Plan period,Zaoyang has achieved the stage of elimination of IDD,but the situation of iodine nutritionrich children and the iodine nutrition-lack pregnant women are still exist.Therefore,we still need to strengthen the salt market management and insist to spread the knowledge of IDD,to eliminate the non-iodized salt from the market,and to ensure all people in appropriate iodine nutrition.

Transforming growth factor-? (TGF-?) is a multifunctional peptide growth factor with a wide range of effects. TGF-? signals are conveyed through cell-surface serine/threonine kinase receptors to the downstream cytoplasmic mediators, known as Smads proteins. Receptor-regulated Smads become phosphorylated by activated type Ⅰ receptors and form heteromeric complexes with a common Smad-Smad4, which translocates into the nucleus to regulate gene transcription. Inhibitory Smads inhibit the activation of receptor-regulated Smads. There are positive, negative and feedback regulations in the Smads mediated TGF-? signaling pathway.

Objective To evaluate the effect of anisodamine on endoplasmic reticulum stress during acute kidney injury (AKI) in rats.Methods Forty-two nale Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 200-220 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups:control group (group C,n =6),AKI group (n =18) and anisodamine group (group AD,n =18).AKI was induced by intramuscular injection of 50％ (v/v) glycerol 10 ml/kg into bilateral hind limbs in groups AKI and AD.In addition,anisodamine 10 mg/kg was injected intraperitoneally 20 min before intramuscular injection of glycerol in group AD.In group C the rats received intramuscular injection of normal saline 10 ml/kg into bilateral hind limbs.Six rats were chosen immediately after injection of normal saline in group C or at 1,6 and 24 h after glycerol injection in groups AKI and AD and then anethetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital.The animals were sacrificed and kidney specimens were obtained and cut into sections which were stained with hematoxylin and eosin for pathological examination.The pathological changes of the renal tubules were scored.The expression of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) and oxygen-regulated protein 150 (ORP150) in renal tissues was determined by immuno-histochemistry and Western blot.Results Compared with group C,the pathological scores were significantly increased and the expression of GRP78 and ORP150 was up-regulated at all time points in groups AKI and AD (P ＜ 0.01).Compared with group AKI,the pathological scores were significantly decreased and the expression of GRP78 and ORP150 was down-regulated at all time points in group AD (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01).Conclusion Anisodamine can ameliorate AKI through inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress in renal tubular epithelial cells and decreasing endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced cell apoptosis in rats.

Objective To evaluate the roles of food allergen detection in patients with chronic urticaria.Methods Food allergen-specific IgE and IgG were detected in 502 patients with chronic urticaria and 100 normal human controls.Double-blind,placebo-controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) test was performed in patients who were proved to be positive or negative for food-specific IgG or IgE.Results Food-specific IgE was detected in 37.45％ (188/502) of the patients,with cashew,peanuts and soybeans as the most common allergens.The detection rate of food-specific IgG was 72.11％ (361/502),with the major allergens being milk,egg,shrimp and crab.DBPCFC revealed false positivity and negativity in the detection of food-specific IgG and IgE.Conclusions Clinicians should pay attention to food allergen detection in the treatment of chronic urticaria,especially in the treatment of allergy mediated by IgG antibodies.

Objective To prepare a detective membrane strip for detection of food allergen-specific IgE in serum samples and estimate its clinical application value in allergic diseases. Methods The crude extracts of the food allergens were prepared. Nitrocellulose membrane as the solid support was selected and the coating and the detecting conditions were optimized. The membrane strips were used to detect serum samples in 210 patients with allergic diseases and the results were compared with German Allergy Screentesting system. Results The optima] experimental conditions were as follows: The NC membrane was adopted as the solid support. After being spotted, the food allergens were incubated for 2 hours at room temperature, followed by 2% PVA blocking for 1 hour. After serum samples were diluted (1: 10) and incubated for 2 hours at room temperature, the concentration of anti-human IgE was 2 μg/mL Compared with the German Allergy Screen-testing system, their positive detectical coincidence was 63.6%, and negative detectical coincidence was 94. 6%. The two methods had no difference in detecting the majority of food allergens such as egg white, milk, peanut, soybean, crab and shrimp (X2 2.53, 2.40, 2.08, 2.38, 0.17,1.13, P>0.05). Conclusions The advantages of our method for detecting allergic diseases are little serum needed, multiple detective allergens, simple manipulation and low cost. This method has obvious clinical application value, which should be a new detective method for the allergic diseases with broad perspectives.

Objective To evaluate the effect of ixeris sonchifolia on mitochondrial transcription factor A (mtTFA) expression following myocardial injury induced by exhausting exercise in rats.Methods Forty male Wistar rats,weighing 200-220 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups using a random number table:control group (group C,n =8),exhausting exercise group (group ES,n =16) and ixeris sonchifolia group (group IS,n =16).The model of myocardial injury was established by exhausting swimming.In IS group,the rats were subjected to exhausting swimming after intraperitoneal ixeris sonchifolia 20 g/kg.In ES and IS groups,8 rats were chosen at 6 and 24 h after exhaustion,and blood samples were taken from the inferior vena cava for determination of serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI) concentrations by ELISA.The animals were sacrificed after blood sampling and myocardial specimens were obtained for microscopic examination and for determination of mtTFA expression by Western blot.Results Compared with group C,the concentration of serum cTnI was significantly increased,and the expression of mtTFA in myocardial tissues was down-regulated at 6 and 24 h after exhaustion in ES and IS groups.Compared with group ES,the concentration of serum cTnI was significantly decreased,and the expression of mtTFA in myocardial tissues was up-regulated at 6 and 24 h after exhaustion in group IS.Conclusion Ixeris sonchifolia can reduce exhausting exercise-induced myocardial injury through up-regulating myocardial mtTFA expression in rats.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the incidence of anatomic variations of the temporal bone to provide valuable reference for clinical otology. METHODS Sev-enty six healthy adults (152 ears) and 66 patients(96 ears) with chronic suppurative otitis media confirmed by clinical examination underwent axial and coronal High-resolution Computed Tomography(HRCT) scan. The incidence of high jugular bulb, dehiscent jugu-lar bulb, anterior location of sigmoid sinus, low-lying middle cranial fossa, dehiscent tegmen tympani, mas-toid antrum dysplasia, aberrant internal carotid artery, and large sinus tympani were recorded. RESULTS In normal, abnormal, well and poorly pneumatized groups, the incidence of highly positioned jugular bulb on the right was higher than that on the left. The total inci-dence of high jugular bulb on the left and right was 26.2 % and 46.0 % respectively. The incidence of ante-rior location of sigmoid sinus in the abnormal group (32.3 %) was higher than that in normal group(15.8 %), which was higher in poorly pneumatized group(43.5 %) than that in well pneumatized group(11.3 %). The inci-dence of dehiscent tegmen tympani in well pneuma-tized group(18.0 %) was higher than that in poor pneu-matized group(8.7 %). There was no significant differ-ence in dehiscent jugular bulb, low-lying middle cranial fossa, mastoid antrum dysplasia, aberrant internal ca-rotid artery, and large sinus tympani between the left and right within and among groups. The incidence of these varia-tions was 2.0 %,21.8 %,1.2 %,0.4 %,0.8 %respectively. CONCLUSION HRCT can show ana-tomic variances of temporal bone clearly before opera-tion and has great clinical value for reducing the inci-dence of complications caused by middle ear operation.

Objective To investigate the effect of penehyclidine hydrochloride ( PHC) pretreat?ment on nuclear factor erythroid 2?related factor 2∕heme oxygenase?1 ( Nrf2∕HO?1) signaling pathway in re?nal tissues of rats with rhabdomyolysis?induced acute kidney injury ( AKI) . Methods Thirty?six pathogen?free male Sprague?Dawley rats, weighing 200-220 g, were assigned into 3 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table: control group (group C), group AKI and PHC pretreatment group (group PHC). Rhabdomyolysis was induced by intramuscular injection of 50% glycerol 10 ml∕kg in bilateral hindlimbs. PHC 0?2 mg∕kg was injected intraperitoneally at 30 min before glycerol was injected intramuscularly in group PHC. At 1 and 6 h after glycerol injection, serum was collected for determination of blood urea nitro?gen ( BUN) and creatinine ( Cr) concentrations, and bilateral kidneys were harvested for pathological ex?amination and for determination of HO?1 activity and expression of Nrf2 mRNA and HO?1 mRNA ( by quan?titative real?time polymerase chain reaction) , Nrf2 in nucleoprotein and total protein and HO?1 in total pro?tein in renal tissues ( by Western blot) . The damage to the renal tubules was scored. Results Compared with group C, the BUN and Cr concentrations in serum and renal tubular damage scores were significantly increased, the expression of Nrf2 in nucleoprotein and total protein and HO?1 in total protein was signifi?cantly up?regulated, and HO?1 activity was significantly increased in AKI and PHC groups, the expression of HO?1 mRNA was significantly up?regulated in group AKI, and the expression of Nrf2 mRNA and HO?1 mRNA was significantly up?regulated in group PHC (P<0?01 or 0?05). Compared with group AKI, the BUN and Cr concentrations in serum and renal tubular damage scores were significantly decreased, the ex?pression of Nrf2 in nucleoprotein and total protein and HO?1 in total protein was significantly up?regulated, and HO?1 activity was significantly increased in group PHC ( P<0?01 or 0?05) . Conclusion The mecha?nism by which PHC pretreatment attenuates rhabdomyolysis?induced AKI may be related to activation of Nrf2∕HO?1 signaling pathway in renal tissues of rats.

Objective : To analyze the characteristics of HIV/AIDS cases with non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission in Hangzhou, and the influencing factors for new infection and local infection, so as to provide the evidence for AIDS prevention and control. Methods : From 2017 to 2019, the newly reported HIV/AIDS cases with non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission in Hangzhou were recruited, and their demographic information, previous sexual behaviors and history of HIV testing were collected in the questionnaire survey. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for new infections and local infections. Results : A total of 522 participants from 668 newly reported HIV/AIDS cases with non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission in Hangzhou during this period were surveyed．Among 522 cases, 263 ( 50.38% ) were aged 40 years or above, 218 ( 41.76% ) were married, 326 ( 62.45% ) had an educational level of junior high school or below, and 340 ( 65.13% ) were not local. Among 504 cases whose infection time could be determined, 72 ( 14.29% ) were newly infected within one year; age of 40 years below ( OR=4.148, 95%CI: 1.956-8.795 ), history of HIV testing ( OR=2.049, 95%CI: 1.163-3.609 ) and history of sexually transmitted diseases ( OR=2.169, 95%CI: 1.076-4.374 ) were risk factors for new infection. Among 454 cases whose infection location could be determined, 267 ( 58.81% ) were infected in Hangzhou; educational level of high school or below ( OR=2.538, 95%CI: 1.252-5.145 ) , Hangzhou residence ( OR=7.835, 95%CI: 4.227-14.353 ), living in Hangzhou for a year or over ( OR=18.960, 95%CI: 8.755-41.060 ) and monthly income of 3 000 yuan or over ( OR=2.630, 95%CI: 1.546-4.474 ) were risk factors for local infection. Conclusions The HIV/AIDS cases with non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission in Hangzhou are mainly floating population and less educated. The newly infected cases are more likely to be young and middle-aged people and patients with sexually transmitted diseases, the locally infected cases are more likely to be people with permanent residence, less educated and high income.
