Objective To study the rat pulmonary irritant of aerosol inhaled Tanreqing and Reduning injection .Methods Rats were devided into two groups for each medicine (low concentration group and high concentration group ) ,nebulized drug administration for seven days ,with the control group irrigated with saline ,and were sacrificed .Through bronchoalveolar lav-age ,excurrent bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was used for total protein determination and LDH vitality test to evaluate pulmonary toxicity of two medicines .Results The protein concentrations of two groups in low and high concentrations of Tan-reqing and Reduning respectively are (193 .78 ± 27 .74) ,(235.33 ± 50.41)μg/ml;(174 .02 ± 17 .82) ,(227 .27 ± 66 .03)μg/ml;LDH vitalities respectively are 1065 .21 ± 181 .76 ,1467 .33 ± 101 .87;307 .97 ± 47 .56 ,1377 .29 ± 566 .48 .By t-test ,compared with normal saline ,there was no significant effect among these five groups on protein concentration ,but these two medicine were able to improve LDH activity (P<0 .05) which was more obvious in high concentration group .When two medicines were in low concentration ,LDH activity was higher in Tanreqing group with statistical significance (P<0 .05) .Conclusion Aero-sol inhaled Tanreqing and Reduning injection in rats have some pulmonary irritation and potential safety hazard in this delivery w ay .

Objective To investigate the risk factors associated with the presence of multiple Lugol-voiding lesions(LVLs)in patients with early esophageal cancer and the correlation with alcohol dehy-drogenase 1B(ADH1B)and aldehyde dehydrogenase 2(ALDH2)polymorphisms.Methods Patients who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection due to early esophageal cancer were divided into group with multiple LVLs and group without multiple LVLs based on their endoscopic features.Their clinical data and the genotype of ADH1B and ALDH2 were collect-ed and SPSS 27.0 was used to statistically analyze the above data.Results A total of 83 subjects were included in the study,23 had multiple LVLs,most of them were seen in males,alcohol drinkers,and smokers with smoking index≥1 000,and multivariate analysis showed that alcohol consumption was an independent risk factor for it(OR=6.215,P=0.008).The gene polymorphism of ADH1B and ALDH2 and their interactions did not have any sig-nificant correlation with multiple LVLs.However,among alcohol drinkers,there was a 12-fold increased risk of multiple LVLs in patients carrying the ALDH2 A allele and drinking≥50 g per day compared to those carrying the ALDH2 GG genotype and drinking<50 g per day(P=0.045).Conclusion Alcohol consumption is an inde-pendent risk factor of multiple LVLs of the esophageal mucosa in patients with early esophageal cancer,and heavy alcohol consumption in carriers of the ALDH2 A allele will significantly increase the risk of multiple LVLs,and such patients should be closely followed up with endoscopy.
3.AIDS discrimination in junior college students and the effect of AIDS knowledge on discrimination
Chinese Journal of School Health 2020;41(2):209-212
Objective:
To analyze the situation of AIDS knowledge and discrimination among freshmen in Chengdu city, and to explore possible effects of AIDS knowledge on discrimination.
Methods:
A cluster random sampling was employed to investigate 1 053 college students from 11 universities in Chengdu about their HIV/AIDS knowledge and discrimination. The scores of AIDS knowledge and discrimination of students with different characteristics were analyzed, and the influence path of AIDS knowledge on AIDS discrimination were further analyzed based on different peer relationships.
Results:
The total scores of AIDS knowledge was negatively correlated to AIDS discrimination( r s =-0.13, P <0.01). After adjusting for confounding factors, the total score of AIDS knowledge was associated with the total score of AIDS discrimination( β =-0.12, P <0.01). AIDS knowledge played a role in AIDS discrimination in intimate, general and unfamiliar peer relationships, with standardized path coefficients of -0.20, -0.24 and -0.18 respectively( P <0.01).
Conclusion
AIDS knowledge are correlated with discrimination among freshmen under different peer relationships. More anti-AIDS discrimination courses should be added to AIDS education to reduce the students’ fear and stigma of HIV/AIDS patients and related risk groups.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of and influencing factors for atopic dermatitis (AD)in children aged 1-7 years in Shenzhen city,and to analyze difference in diagnostic results between two diagnostic criteria.Methods From December 1st 2013 to March 1st 2014,a questionnaire survey and physical examination were conducted to investigate the prevalence of AD in children aged 1-7 years in Shenzhen city.Results A total of 1 504 children were enrolled into this study,including 716 males and 788 females.Based on the clinical diagnosis by experienced dermatologists,the prevalence of AD was 11.84% (17811 504) in total,11.73% (84/716) and 11.93% (94/788) in males and females,respectively,and there was no significant difference in the prevalence of AD between males and females (x2 =0.01,P >0.05).Based on the Williams' diagnostic criteria,the prevalence of AD was 3.92% (59/1 504) in total,and 4.05% (29/716) and 3.81% (30/788) in males and females,respectively.Premature birth was a risk factor for the occurrence of AD (x2 =5.43,P < 0.05).Conclusions The prevalence of AD is evidently increased among children aged 1-7 years in Shenzhen city,and premature birth is a risk factor for AD.Missed diagnosis will be reduced based on clinical diagnosis by experienced dermatologists.

AIM:To investigate the role and molecular mechanism of long noncoding RNA LINC00987 in the apoptosis of acute myeloid leukemia(AML)cells induced by antitumor drugs.METHODS:The LINC00987 expression in AML was detected by RT-qPCR.The Molm13 cells with stable knockdown of LINC00987 gene(shLINC00987)were constructed,and the effect of low LINC00987 expression on the apoptosis of AML cells induced by cytarabine was detected by annexin V/PI staining.Signaling pathway enrichment of LINC00987-coexpressed genes was performed to analyze the ef-fect of LINC00987 expression on cytochrome family genes.RESULTS:Compared with healthy individual group,the ex-pression of LINC00987 was significantly down-regulated in AML cell lines and patients,but highly up-regulated in the complete remission group after anti-AML treatment.In addition,low LINC00987 expression was associated with poor prog-nosis among the patients with AML.The LINC00987 expression in AML cell lines Molm13 and MV411 was significantly induced by antitumor drugs such as cytarabine,doxorubicin,arsenic trioxide,and venetoclax.Meanwhile,LINC00987 down-regulation could inhibit the apoptosis of Molm13 cells induced by cytarabine.The LINC00987-coexpressed genes were enriched in cytochrome P450(CYP450)-mediated oxidative stress pathways,and the LINC00987 expression was positively correlated with the expression of CYP450 family genes CYP11B1,CYP2U1 and CYP2C9.Down-regulation of LINC00987 could inhibit the mRNA expression of CYP11B1,CYP2U1 and CYP2C9 induced by cytarabine.CONCLU-SION:Long noncoding RNA LINC00987 can be used as a prognostic marker for AML and may promote cytarabine-in-duced AML cell apoptosis through CYP450-mediated oxidative stress pathways.

Objective: To assess the association between the metabolic score for insulin resistance index (METS-IR) and overactive bladder (OAB) in the US population,so as to explore the potential of METS-IR as a predictive tool for OAB risk and to provide insights for early screening and intervention strategies. Methods: Based on the data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2018,a cross-sectional design was employed,and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the association between METS-IR and OAB. METS-IR was analyzed both as a continuous variable and categorized into quartiles. To further validate the association between METS-IR and OAB across diverse populations,subgroup analyses were conducted in participants stratified by clinical characteristics. Smooth curve fitting was employed to test the linearity of the METS-IR-OAB relationship. Results: Elevated METS-IR was associated with an increased risk of OAB (P<0.001),and this positive correlation remained stable when METS-IR was categorized into quartiles (P<0.001). Subgroup analyses revealed that the association between METS-IR and OAB was more pronounced in females,participants younger than 55 years,and non-diabetic individuals (P<0.05). Furthermore,smooth curve fitting confirmed a linear positive correlation between METS-IR and OAB,with this linear relationship observed in both diabetic and non-diabetic groups. Conclusion: This study,based on the NHANES 2005-2018 database,found a linear positive correlation between METS-IR and OAB.
