Objective To study the function of LSD1 in the development of neurons and the influence of LSD1 on mood and memory-related behavior in mice. Methods The LSD1(flox / flox) transgenic mice were crossed with Nestin?cre(Tg) transgenic mice, using Cre?LoxP recombination system, to generate LSD1 conditional knockout of neural stem cell ( LSD1?CKO) mice, LSD1(flox/ flox) Nestin?cre(Tg) mice, and LSD1(flox/ flox) mice as control. The neuron proliferation in LSD1?CKO mice was further detected by immunofluorescence staining. At the same time, the mood and memory?related behavior of LSD1?CKO mice were examined using several methods:sucrose preference test ( SPT) , forced swimming test ( FST) and novel?object recognition ( NOR) assay. Results In the LSD1 brain?specific CKO mice, the neuron proliferation rate in the hippocampus was significantly reduced ( P=0. 023 ) , the preference for sucrose was reduced ( P =0. 0075 ) , immobility duration during the forced swimming test was increased (P<0. 05), and LSD1?CKO mice also exhibits memory?decline (P=0. 0019) during the novel?object recognition test. Conclusions Depletion of LSD1 in mouse brain neural stem cells leads to significant reduction of the neuron proliferation in the hippocampus. LSD1?CKO mice show more negative emotions and memory impairment.

Objective:
To learn the trend of death from injury in Fengcheng residents from 2009 to 2017 and predict from 2018 to 2021,in order to provide the basis for injury prevention and control.
Methods:
All cause of death monitoring data and demographic data of Fengcheng from 2009 to 2017 were collected,injury mortality,standardized mortality and annual change percentage(APC)were calculated,and GM(1,1)was established to predict the injury mortality from 2018 to 2021.
Results:
From 2009 to 2017,the injury death rate in Fengcheng was 52.68 per 100 000 and the standardized death rate was 46.50 per 100 000. The APC of the total standardized mortality was -5.10%,showing a decreasing trend year by year(P<0.05). The injury mortality and standardized mortality in males were higher than that in female(both P <0.05). The highest injury mortality lay in the group aged 65 years and above,which was 108.13 per 100 000. The top five causes of injury death were traffic accident,suiside,poisoning,fall and drowning,their mortality rate were 27.03 per 100 000,7.84 per 100 000,5.62 per 100 000,5.08 per 100 000 and 2.36 per 100 000,respectively. The mortality of traffic accident in males and suicide in females showed a decreasing trend(P<0.05),while the mortality of fall showed an increasing trend(all P<0.05). The model of GM(1,1)predicted that the injury mortality from 2018 to 2021 would be 48.00 per 100 000,44.15 per 100 000,40.61 per 100 000 and 37.35 per 100 000,which showed a decreasing trend year by year.
Conclusion
The injury death rates in Fengcheng dropp year by year from 2009 to 2017 and will probably keep dropping from 2018 to 2021. Men and people aged 65 years or over are at high risk of death from injury,traffic accident and fall are the main causes.

Objective? To explore effects of CoughAssist on sputum excretion efficacy among patients with intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW). Methods? From January 2016 to December 2017, we selected 84 ICU-AW patients with mechanical ventilation of ICU in Hu'nan Provincial People's Hospital by convenience sampling. All of the patients were divided into control group and observation group with the random number table, 42 cases in each group. Two groups all received routine treatment and nursing. On this basis, observation group carried out CoughAssist therapy. We compared the sputum excretion effects, results of sputum smear/sputum culture, arterial blood gas indexes, respiratory mechanics indexes, the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), time of mechanical ventilation, hospital days in ICU and the score of Medical Research Council (MRC) of patients between two groups. Results? There were no statistical difference in the volume of sputum excretion of patients in two groups before dividing groups (P>0.05). One to three days after treatment, the volume of sputum excretion and number of effective sputum excretion patients in observation group were more than those in control group; the positive rate of sputum culture of patients in observation group was lower than that in control group; the differences were all statistical (P< 0.05). The partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) of observation group was higher than that of control group; the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) of observation group was lower than that of control group; the differences were all statistical (P<0.05). The pressure support/pressure control (PS/PC) and airway resistance of observation group were lower than those of control group;and the compliance and cough peak flow (PCF) were higher than those of control group with statistical differences (P< 0.01). The incidence of VAP, time of mechanical ventilation and hospital days in ICU of observation group were lower than those of control group (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in the scores of MRC between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions? The application of CoughAssist in ICU-AW patients with mechanical ventilation can improve the sputum excretion effects as well as respiratory function and shorten the time of mechanical ventilation and hospital days in ICU, and improve the clinical effects.

It was a retrospective cohort study. Eighty maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients with corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) were enrolled, among whom 48 patients survived and 32 died. The clinical data between the survival and death groups were compared. The Cox regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of death in MHD patients with COVID-19, and a survival prediction model was constructed. The results showed that age, lesion-cumulative number of lung segments, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, serum ferritin, interleukin-6, D-dimer, serum phosphorus, and proportions of males, diabetes and hypoxemia in the death group were higher than those in the survival group (all P<0.05). Increased age ( HR=1.039, 95% CI 1.007-1.072, P=0.017), diabetes ( HR=2.688, 95% CI 1.018-6.991, P=0.046), increased C-reactive protein ( HR=1.006, 95% CI 1.001-1.011, P=0.012), and increased serum phosphorus ( HR=1.573, 95% CI 1.015-2.438, P=0.043) were independent influencing factors of death in MHD patients with COVID-19. The survival prediction model was established based on age, diabetes, C-reactive protein and blood phosphorus. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the combined model for survival time at 7-day, 14-day, and 21-day were 0.751 (95% CI 0.690-0.811), 0.768 (95% CI 0.712-0.824), and 0.780 (95% CI 0.729-0.831), respectively. The concordance index of cross- validation as internal validation was 0.797 (95% CI 0.757-0.837). Increased age, diabetes, elevated C-reactive protein and elevated blood phosphorus are independent risk factors of COVID-19 death in MHD patients, and the survival prediction model built by those factors has good efficacy.
