Objective To have a global view of research field distribution and the development of research team in the field of“pathogenic microorganism and infection”by analyzing the projects submitted and funded by National Natural Science Foundation of China(NSFC)in 2014. Methods Several items in-cluding funding categories,applicants,research objectives,secondary codes,registered institutions and grants were statistically analyzed. Results The funded projects were mainly focused on the field of viruses. The numbers and rates of funded projects hosted by male applicants were higher than those by female ones. Applicants who were clinicians were poorly sponsored as compared with scientists. The academic levels of the registered institutions were unbalanced. More than 40% of the funded projects were applied by researchers from the top 10 registered institutions in number of sponsored applications. Conclusion The quality of the projects applying for the National Natural Science Fund has been keeping increasing. The scientific research-ers are young and highly educated. The scope of registered institutions have expanded. The research field is widely covered. Academic misconduct still exists.

Objective To observe the variation of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K),protein kinase B (AKT),sodium iodide symporter (NIS) mRNA and protein expression in rat mammary tissues and serum insulin growth factor Ⅰ (IGF-1) under different iodine nutrition levels,and to study the role of PI3K-AKT signaling pathway in the process of mammary gland intaking iodine during lactation period.Methods Totally 130 Wistar rats (100 female rats,30 male rats) were randomly divided into five groups with 20 female rats in each group:①control group (NI):was feed with normal diet and iodine content 50 μg/L in deionized water;②low iodine group 1 (LI1 group):was feed with low iodine diet and deionized water;③low iodine group 2 (LI2):was feed with low iodine diet and iodine content 5 μg/L in deionized water;④high iodine group 1 (HI1 group):was feed with normal diet and iodine content 3 000 μg/L in deionized water;⑤high iodine group 2 (HI2):was feed with normal diet and iodine content 10 000 μg/L in deionized water.After feeding for 3 months,females were mated with male rats,then male rats were taken out and every female rat was feed individually.Urinary iodine level of rats in lactation period 10 days after giving birth was tested.Blood and mammary tissue samples of rats in lactation period were taken after killing them.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect serum IGF-1 level,real-time fluorescence quantification PCR to detect the mRNA expression of mammary gland PI3K,AKT and NIS,Western blotting to detect mammary gland PI3K,total AKT,phosphorylation AKT (p-AKT) and NIS protein expression.Results The medians urinary iodine of lactation period rats in LI1 and LI2 (3.16,6.36 μg/L) were significantly lower than that in NI group (162.59 μg/L),and were significantly higher in HI1 and HI2 (2 356.27,11 507.29 μg/L) than that in NI group.The differences were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.01).Compared with control group [(8.84 ± 2.12) μg/L],the content of serum IGF-1 increased significantly in lactation period rats in LI1 and LI2 groups [(13.30 ± 2.37) and (10.90 ± 1.92) μg/L,all P＜ 0.01].The real-time fluorescence quantification PCR detection results indicated that the differences were statistically significant by comparing NIS,AKT,PI3K mRNA expression of the mammary tissues of lactation period rats in the five groups (F=14.916,36.477,14.994,all P＜ 0.01).Among them,NIS mRNA expression quantities in LI1 and LI2 groups (0.75 ± 0.40,0.89 ± 0.51) were significantly higher than that in NI group (0.53 ± 0.31),and significantly lower in HI2 group (0.30 ± 0.24) than that in NI group (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01).AKT mRNA expression quantities in LI1 and LI2 groups (0.90 ± 0.19,0.64 ± 0.22) were significantly higher than that in NI group (0.43 ± 0.22),and significantly lower in HI2 group (0.29 ± 0.15) than that in NI group (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01).PI3K mRNA expression quantity in LI1 group (0.85 ± 0.42) was significantly higher than that in NI group (0.50 ± 0.24),and significantly lower in HI2 group (0.28 ± 0.10) than that in NI group (all P ＜ 0.01).Western blot detection results indicated that the differences were statistically significant by comparing mammary gland NIS protein expression of lactation period rats in the five groups (F=4.510,P＜ 0.01).Among them,LI1 group (1.67 ± 0.97) was significantly higher than NI group (0.87 ± 0.43,P ＜ 0.05).The differences were statistically significant by comparing the p-AKT protein expression among groups (F =3.528,P ＜ 0.05).Among them,HI2 group (1.10 ± 0.30) was significantly higher than NI group (0.75 ± 0.23,P ＜0.05).The differences were not statistically significant by comparing total AKT and PI3K protein expression among groups (F =0.558,1.319,all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The inhibitory effect of PI3K-AKT signaling pathways on NIS in the mammary gland was weaker than the effect of iodine intake.But the expression of functional p-AKT was gradually increased with the increment of iodine intake,which had been presented inhibit effect on NIS expression in lactating mammary gland.

A longitudinal study was carried out on fifty infants selected from both urban and rural areas of Beijing for their body weights, heights, head and mid-upper arm circumferences, tricep and abdomen skinfold thicknesses, and breatmilk and energy and protein intakes at the 1st, 3rd and 6th month of life. The results revealed that the breastmilk intakes of these infants were ranged from 600-800 g/day during this period of time, the breastmilk intakes of the rural infants were higher significantly than that of the urban infant throughout the study period (P

Seventy-five preschool children with hemoglobin content below 11 g/dl in kindergartens and nurseries were divided into five groups. The first, second and third groups were given 10 mg, 20 mg and 30 mg of iron in the form of ferrous sulfate syrup respectively every day for two months, while the fourth and fifth groups were given 100 mg ascorbic acid and 100 mg ascorbic acid plus 10 mg iron respectively every day for one month. The average hemoglobin content in the order of the five groups were 9.6?1.16, 10.6?1.34, 9.7?0.91, 9.7?0.85 and 11.0?1.86 g/dl respectively before treatment. After 1-2 months of iron or ascorbic acid therapy, the average hemoglobin contents raised to 12.0?.31, 12.0?1.06, 12.0?0.79, 11.0?1.86 and 12.7?1.37 g/dl respectively. There were highly significant differences (P

The growth curves and diet of 185 babies in rural area near Beijing from 6 months to 18 months old have been studied. Infants were divided into 3 groups according to their diet taken:(1) 89 babies had breast milk only;(2) 66 babies took more than 250g animal milk per day besides breast milk;(3) 30 babies who did not have breast milk and only animal milk was taken. All the babies were gradually transferred to an ordinary cereal based diet during the weaning period. To half of them a soybean and cereal based formula fortified with minerals and vitamins was supplied, which would provide 6.6g protein and 141 kcal and some other nutrients per day.The results showed that the growth curves of body weight and height of children were much better than the data obtained in 1975, but still lagged behind that of the urban children, especially for the body weight. The weight curves of the babies who took animal milk seemed higher than the other groups. Female babies who were fed with breast milk and supplemented with the weaning food have a better weight and height curves than non-supplemented ones, but this was not seen in males. The hemoglobin contents of the babies who took animal milk when they were 18 months old were lower than that of the 6 months old, but there were no differences in the breast milk groups, and the lowering of the hemoglobin level in the animal milk groups could be corrected by adding weaning food in the diet. When the babies were 6 months old, 39.3% of them had a hair zinc content below the lower limit of the normal range, and it became to 47.6% when they were 18 months old. So zinc deficiency of the babies were present in this local area, and it should be fortified into the weaning food.

Objective:To share the practice of medical care and rescue in the 2017-2019 Amne Machin extreme cross-country challenge.Methods:At the invitation of the Organizing Committee of Amne Machin extreme cross-country challenge of Maqin County of Qinghai Province. More than 150 medical personnel were sent to make the rescue plan and implement the medical security for three consecutive years. The support was divided into leading command group, expert consulting group, on-site medical support group, rear medical support group, and medical material support group. The on-site medical support group was equipped with the ambulance, corresponding emergency medical equipments and medicines to provide medical support at eight medical stations from the starting point to the endpoint and along the route between each station.Results:There were no cardiac arrest and sudden death cases during the three competitions. A total of 56 patients (5 cases of combined injuries) were received, including 21 cases of mild altitude reaction, 8 cases of abrasions, 13 cases of muscle spasm and strain, 11 cases of hypoglycemia, and 3 cases of abdominal pain. All the injured were treated and observed in time. Each patient achieved a complete remission.Conclusions:To achieve the success of medical security of the highest average altitude cross-country race certified by International Trail Running Association (ITRA), we must formulate a scientific and perfect medical security work plan in the first place: pre competition physical examination, especially the application of sports cardiopulmonary function test, screen out athletes who may have medical accidents; during the competition, focus on monitoring and tracking the players who may have problems; each support point is closely connected with the support vehicle; do a good job of first aid training for all kinds of personnel, so that medical accidents can be found, aided, and transferred at the first time. The medical care and rescue of Amne Machin extreme cross-country challenge have played a good role in the security of the international plateau sports events, which provides a reference for the security of similar events.
