Objective: To analyze the trend in disease burden of stroke in Linping District, Hangzhou City from 2014 to 2023, so as to provide the basis for prevention and control of stroke. Methods: Data on incidence and mortality of stroke in Linping District from 2014 to 2023 were collected through the Chronic Disease and Death Cause Monitoring System of Hangzhou Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The disease burden was evaluated by calculating years of life lost (YLL), years lived with disability (YLD) and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) with reference to the methodology of the Global Burden of Disease Study, and standardized using the data of the seventh national population census in 2020. The trend was analyzed using average annual percent change (AAPC). The disease burden of stroke attributed to risk factors was calculated. Results: The crude incidence of stroke was 298.13/105 and the crude mortality was 62.72/105 in Linping District from 2014 to 2023. The YYL, YLD and DALY caused by stroke were 49 413.60, 8 197.68, and 57 611.28 person-years, respectively, with decreasing trends in YLL and DALY, and an increasing trend in YLD (AAPC=-12.663%, -10.427% and 3.035%, all P<0.05). The standardized YLL rate, standardized YLD rate and standardized DALY rate were 9.54‰, 1.53‰ and 11.07‰, respectively, showing decreasing trends (AAPC=-16.011%,-0.975% and -13.791%, all P<0.05). Higher standardized DALY rate (P<0.05) and slower decline were seen in men than in women (AAPC=-13.025% vs. -14.550%, both P<0.05). The highest DALY of stroke was attributed to combined risk factors (men, 18 754.05 person-years; women, 13 256.60 person-years), followed by hypertension (men, 12 231.23 person-years; women, 9 373.77 person-years). The DALY of stroke attributed to smoking was 15.67 times higher in men than in women, and the DALY of stroke attributed to a lack of exercise was 1.27 times higher in women than in men. Conclusion There was an overall decreasing trend in the disease burden of stroke in Lingping District from 2014 to 2023, with a higher disease burden in men. The coexistence of multiple risk factors had a greater impact on stroke.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of intravitreal injection of Lucentis combined with pan retinal photocoagulation and trabeculectomy for neovascular glaucoma(NVG). Methods Seventeen eyes of 15 patients with NVG were treated by 0.5 mg Lucentis intravitreal injection first. Trabeculectomy was performed 7 days later and Pan retinal photocoagulation 2 weeks later. Iris,anterior chamber angle neovascularization,intraocu?lar pressure ,and visual acuity were observed in the following 6 months. Results Iris and anterior chamber angle neovascularization were completely regressed 7 days after the injection in 17 eyes. Six months after photocoagulation, 6 eyes had different degrees of improvement in visual acuity,10 eyes no change in visual acuity and 1 eye decreased from anterior index to immediate manual. There was significant difference in pre?treatment IOP and postoperative IOP( t = 12.75 ,10.26 ,9.73 ,10.77 ,P < 0.01 ). No serious complications were observed after intravitreal injec?tion and trabeculectomy. Conclusions Intravitreal injection of Lucentis could significantly accelerate the regres?sion of iris and anterior chamber angle neovascularization ,which could improve the successful rate of trabeculecto?my and pan retinal photocoagulation. Intravitreal injection of Lucentis combined with trabeculectomy and panretinal photocoagulation is safe and effective for NVG.

We constructed plasmid pMTac to overexpress 3-ketosteroid-Δ1-dehydrogenase (KSDD) in Mycobacterium neoaurum JC-12 for improving androst-1,4-diene-3,17-dione (ADD) production. To construct pMTac, pACE promoter on pMF41 was replaced by tac promoter, and then four recombinants were constructed, which were M. neoaurum JC-12/pMF41-gfp, M. neoaurum JC-12/pMTac-gfp, M. neoaurum JC-12/pMF41-ksdd and M. neoaurum JC-12/pMTac-ksdd. Fluorescence detection results show that much more green fluorescent protein (GFP) was expressed in M. neoaurum JC-12/pMTac-ksdd than M. neoaurum JC-12/pMF41-ksdd. The activity of KSDD was 2.41 U/mg in M. neoaurum JC-12/pMTac-ksdd, 6.53-fold as that of M. neoaurum JC-12 and 4.36-fold as that of M. neoaurum JC-12/pMF41-ksdd. In shake flask fermentation, ADD production of M. neoaurum JC-12/pMTac-ksdd was 5.94 g/L, increased about 22.2% compared to the original strain M. neoaurum JC-12 and 12.7% to M. neoaurum JC-12/pMF41-ksdd. AD (4-androstene-3,17-dione) production of JC-12/pMTac-ksdd was 0.17 g/L, decreased 81.5% compared to M. neoaurum JC-12 and 71.2% to M neoaurum JC-12/pMF41-ksdd. In the 5 L fermenter, 20 g/L phytosterols was used as substrate, ADD production of M. neoaurum JC-12/pMTac-ksdd was improved to 10.28 g/L. pMTac is favorable for expressing KSDD in M. neoaurum JC-12, and overexpression of KSDD has beneficial effect on ADD producing, and it is the highest level ever reported using fermentation method in M. neoaurum.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic performance of osteopontin (OPN)for ovarian cancer.Methods Wanfang, CQVIP and CNKI were retrieved to identify eligible studies on diagnostic value of OPN for ovarian cancer that published be-fore May,2014.The quality of the studies was evaluated by QUADAS tools.The diagnostic sensitivity,specificity,negative and positive likelihood ratios and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR)were pooled by random-effects models.The overall diagnostic performance was estimated by summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC)curves approaches.Results Six studies met the included criteria.The summary estimates for OPN in the diagnosis of ovarian cancer in the studies included were as follows:sensitivity 0.83 [(95% confidence interval(CI):0.78~0.87)],specificity 0.91 (95% CI,0.88~0.94),positive likelihood ratio 9.00 (95% CI,5.91~13.71),negative likelihood ratio 0.19 (95% CI,0.15~0.25),and DOR 47.58 (95%CI,27.93~81.05).The area under curve (AUC)for OPN was 0.87 with Q value of 0.80.Conclusion OPN has high diag-nostic value for ovarian cancer.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Paris saponin I (PS I) on human gastric carcinoma cell growth and apoptosis and to explore the potential mechanisms. The proliferation of SGC7901 cells was monitored by the MTT cell viability assay, while the nuclear morphology of apoptotic cells was assessed by Hoechst 33258 staining. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze the cell cycle progression of propidium iodide (PI)-stained SGC7901 cells and the apoptotic rate of annexin V/PI-stained cells. Western blotting was used to examine the expression of several cell cycle proteins, including cyclin B1 and Cdk1, and the apoptosis-regulated proteins Bcl-2, Bax, cytochrome c, procaspase-9, and procaspase-3. The MTT assay demonstrated that PS I could induce significant dose- and time-dependent inhibition of SGC7901 cell proliferation. Marked morphological changes, including condensation of chromatin, nuclear fragmentation and apoptotic bodies were clearly shown on Hoechst 33258 staining. PSI treatment also resulted in the disruption of the cell cycle at G(2)/M and the induction of apoptosis. Following PSI treatment, the cell cycle-related proteins cyclin B1 and Cdk1 were down-regulated. Expression of the pro-apoptotic protein Bax was increased, while anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 decreased. PSI treatment resulted in elevated cytoplasmic cytochrome c and activation of the apoptotic proteases caspase-9 and caspase-3. These data indicate that PS acts as an inhibitor of proli I feration in SGC7901 cells by inducing cell cycle arrest and mitochondria-dependent apoptosis. PSI is a potential therapeutic agent against human gastric carcinoma.
