AIM:To explore the influence of long-term swimming on peripheral neuropathy in type 2 diabetic rats.METHODS:Male Wistar rats were fed with a high-fat and high-fructose diet, and injected with streptozocin to estab-lish a model of type 2 diabetes mellitus.The rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:blank control group (C group), ex-ercise control group ( CE group ) , diabetes mellitus group ( DM group ) and diabetes mellitus +exercise group ( DME group).The rats in CE group and DME group received 8-week swimming training (6 d/week).The training time was 20, 30 and 45 min in the first 3 d,respectively, and then it increased to 60 min a day.Eight weeks later, the motor nerve conduc-tion velocity ( MNCV ) and the levels of tumor necrosis factor α( TNF-α) , interleukin 6 ( IL-6 ) and C-reactive protein ( CRP) in sciatic nerve tissues of the rats were measured .The morphological changes of the sciatic nerve were also observed under light microscope .RESULTS:Compared with DM group , 8-week swimming obviously accelerated the MNCV ( P<0.05), decreased the levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and CRP in DME group (but no significant difference, P>0.05).The obvi-ous nerve injury in DM group was observed .However , the pathological change of the sciatic nerve in DME group was re-lieved.CONCLUSION:Eight-week swimming training significantly accelerates the MNCV , attenuates the nerve injury in diabetic rats and has protective effect on peripheral nerve , which may be correlated with relieving the inflammatory reaction .

Objective: To explore the associations among achievement goal orientation, learning stress and sleep quality among middle school students. Methods: A total of 5 781 students were recruited from 14 middle schools in Guangzhou by a stratified cluster random sampling method. These students were investigated with learning stressors (SSA), achievement goal orientation (ADG), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Results: The mean score of four aspects of achievement goal orientation was as follows: performance approach (25.98±6.76), performance avoidance (15.52±4.12), mastery approach (25.87±6.77), mastery avoidance (15.19±4.12). The average score of learning stress and sleep quality was (149.53±42.46) and (6.45±2.86), respectively. Performance approach, mastery avoidance and performance avoidance positively associated with learning stress and sleep quality(r=0.12-0.53, P<0.01). Mastery approach was negatively correlated with learning stress and sleep quality (r=-0.14-0.22, P<0.01). Four types of achievement goal orientation both had a direct effect on sleep quality. Performance avoidance and mastery approach indirectly affected sleep quality through learning stress. Conclusion Achievement goal orientation of middle school students closely relates to learning stress and sleep quality; performance avoidance and mastery approach indirectly affects sleep quality through learning stress. Positive achievement goal orientation helps to reduce learning stress, which would lead to sleep quality improvement among middle school students.

Objective:To understand the epidemiological characteristics of imported COVID-19 cases in Guangzhou and provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of the disease.Methods:The data of imported COVID-19 in Guangzhou reported as of April 1, 2020 were collected from National Notifiable Disease Report System of China. The software Excel 2010 and SPSS 19.0 were applied for data cleaning and statistical analysis.Results:As of April 1, 2020, a total of 103 imported COVID-19 cases had been reported in Guangzhou, in which 92 were confirmed cases and 11 were asymptomatic infection cases. The number of the confirmed imported cases accounted for 11.4 % (92/806) in of the total in China at the same time. The male to female ratio of the cases was 1.58∶1 (63∶40). The median age of the cases was 31 years ( P 25- P 75:22-40 years), range of age was 11-63 years. The main occupational distributions of the cases were business services (41/103, 39.8 %) and students (36/103, 35.0 %). The imported cases whose destinations were 19 provinces and municipalities rather than Guangdong after entering the country accounted for 43.7 %. The main source countries of infections were the United Kingdom (27/103, 26.2 %), the Philippines (13/103, 12.6 %), the United States (13/103, 12.6 %) and Nigeria (7/103, 6.8 %). There were 34 inbound flights from which the imported COVID-19 cases were detected, in which 10 flights (10/34, 29.4 %) were found to carry more than 3 cases, with an average voyage time of (11.14±0.53) hours. A total of 29 imported cases(28.2 %) showed symptoms before entering the country, and 65 cases (63.1 %) had been isolated before the onset of the disease. The mean free activity time of the isolated cases after the onset was (6.76±0.79) days. The average number of the imported cases’ close contacts was 53. There were 13 clusters of COVID-19 caused by the imported cases, involving 36 cases (including 1 imported associated case). Conclusions:The sources of the imported COVID-19 cases in Guangzhou were widely distributed, and no cases had been found to be infected on the flights. In the early stage of the imported epidemic, there was high risk for the spread of the epidemic. Strengthened prevention and control of imported COVID-19 effectively reduced the of transmission risk of COVID-19 in communities.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of house dust mite (HDM) allergen subcutaneous specific immunotherapy (SCIT) in patients with allergic rhinitis (AR) with single dust mite allergy and multiple allergen allergy.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted. A total of 372 patients with allergic rhinitis induced by house dust mite were diagnosed in the allergy clinic of General Hospital of North Theater Command from January 2013 to January 2018.They were treated with house dust mite allergen preparation for standardized SCIT for 3 years or more, and had complete follow-up data. The age ranged from 5 to 55 years, the median age was 13 years, and the average age was (19.4±14.7) years; 216 males and 156 females. According to their age, they were divided into the older group (age >14 years) and younger group (age ≤ 14 years). According to the number of allergens, they were divided into single group (only HDM group allergic to house dust mites) and multi recombination (including 2 or more allergens including house dust mites). The multi recombination was further divided into HDM+1 group, HDM+2 group, HDM+3 group, HDM+4 and above group. Before treatment (T0), 1 year (T1) and 3 years (T2) after SCIT treatment, the patients in each group established files, analyzed and compared the average total nasal symptoms score (TNSS), total non nasal symptoms score (TNNSS), visual analogue scale (VAS), total medicine score (TMS) and rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire (RQLQ), and evaluated the clinical efficacy of the treatment and the comparison of various scores in the efficacy of SCIT with different allergens and ages. Record the occurrence of local and systemic adverse reactions of all patients during treatment, and evaluate the safety of SCIT. All scores are measurement data that do not conform to normal distribution. Mann-Whitney U and Kruskai-Wallis test of independent samples are used for inter group comparison, and Bonferroni correction is used for further pairwise comparison; Chi square test and continuity correction method were used for the comparison between count data groups such as the incidence of adverse reactions and the effective rate of TNSS, and a-division method was used for further pairwise comparison. Results:After SCIT treatment, the scores of TNSS, TNNSS, TMS, VAS and RQLQ in T1 and T2 were significantly lower than those in T0, and the scores in T2 were significantly lower than those in T1 ( Z=-11.168, -4.786, -6.639, -13.012, -10.652 in T0 vs T1; Z=-13.527, -8.746, -13.397, -14.477, -11.833 in T0 vs T2; Z=-4.721, -4.607, -10.020, -7.180, -5.721 in T1 vs T2; P<0.05). In T1 and T2, compared with the older group, the scores of TNSS, TNNSS, TMS, VAS and RQLQ in younger group were lower, and the differences of various indexes were statistically significant(the median scores of T1: Myounger=3.0, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, 2.6, Molder=5.0, 2.0, 3.0, 5.0, 3.2; the median scores of T2: Myounger=3.0, 1.0, 0, 2.0, 1.3, Molder=4.0, 1.0, 1.5, 3.0, 2.3; ZT1=-4.525, -5.830, -4.061, -3.608, -2.785; ZT2=-3.847, -4.055, -2.820, -2.998, -3.418; P<0.05). In T1 and T2, the scores of TNSS, VAS and RQLQ in a single group after SCIT treatment were lower than those in multiple recombination(the median scores of T1: Msingle=4.0, 4.0, 2.6, Mmultiple=5.0, 5.0, 3.2; the median scores of T2: Msingle=3.0, 2.0, 1.4, Mmultiple=4.0, 3.0, 2.1), and the difference was statistically significant ( ZT1=-3.002, -2.092, -1.977; ZT2=-3.354, -2.469, -2.116; P<0.05). There was no significant difference in TMS (the median score during T1 period: Msingle=2.0, Mmultiple=3.0, ZT1=-1.130; the median score during T2 period: Msingle=1.0, Mmultiple=1.0, ZT2=-1.544; P>0.05). Further comparison within the group showed that there was no significant difference in the improvement rate of TNSS during T2 period among HDM group, HDM+1 group, HDM+2 group and HDM+3 group (HDM vs HDM+1 group χ 2=0.277, HDM vs HDM+2 group χ 2=0.78, HDM vs HDM+3 group χ 2=0.075, HDM+1 vs HDM+2 group χ 2=0.057, HDM+1 vs HDM+3 group χ 2=0.019, HDM+2 vs HDM+3 group χ 2=0.003; P>0.005), the improvement rates were 92.5%, 90.3%, 89.1% and 89.5%. Respectively in HDM group,HDM+1 group, HDM+2 group, HDM+3 group, compared with HDM+4 and above group, the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=26.144, 13.254, 15.144, 8.808; P<0.005). The improvement rate of TNSS in HDM+4 and above group was 60.9%. 122 patients had local adverse reactions during the treatment of SCIT, accounting for 32.8%. The local adverse reactions were 759 injections (15 336 injections in total), accounting for 4.95%. Most of them were swelling, dizziness, induration and pruritus at the injection site, which could be relieved by oral antihistamines or within 2 hours. There were 2 cases of local urticaria, once for each case. The symptoms were relieved within 1 week after oral antihistamine. No serious systemic adverse reactions occurred. Conclusion:Standardized SCIT may be a safe and effective treatment for AR patients, and the type of allergen may be one of the important factors affecting the efficacy of SCIT. The efficacy of SCIT was significant in AR patients with three or less allergens other than house dust mite.

Surgery is the mainstay of lung cancer treatment options.Traditionally,lobectomy has held its place as the gold standard for treating localized lung cancer,while sublobar resection,including wedge resection and segmentectomy,was primarily considered as an alternative,often reserved for patient ineligible to sustain a radical intervention.However,with the widespread application of computed tomography(CT)to clinical practice,the increasing detection rate of pulmonary ground glass nodules(GGNs)has reshaped this landscape.Ground glass opacity(GGO)in persistent lung nodules is an indicative factor of a favorable prognosis,typically corresponding to pathological changes such as atypical adenomatous hyperplasia(AAH),adenocarcinoma in situ(AIS),or adenocarcinomas predominantly featuring a lepidic growth pattern.A large number of retrospective studies have shown that sublobar resection can achieve satisfactory therapeutic outcomes for such lesions.A series of prospective studies from Japan have confirmed that for early-stage lung cancers dominated by GGOs,sublobar resection is also a viable curative surgical option.The follow-up data showed that there was no statistical difference in the survival status of these patients compared with that of pulmonary lobectomy.This article aims to delve into the role of limited lung resection in the context of lung adenocarcinoma presenting with GGO features.

Objective:To investigate the relationship of triglyceride (TG), fasting blood glucose (FPG) and triglyceride glucose product index (TyG) with the incidence of hypertension, and provide basic data for the prevention and treatment of hypertension in the population.Methods:A total of 23 581 individuals who met the research criteria in Jinchang cohort were selected as the research subjects, the Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze the relationship of TG, FPG, and TyG with the risk of hypertension. A stratified analysis was conducted by sex.Results:After adjusting for confounding factors, compared with the normal TG group, the HR(95% CI) of the elevated TG margin group and the elevated group were 1.16 (1.01-1.34) and 1.49 (1.30-1.70), respectively in the total population. Among men, they were 1.13 (1.01-1.27) and 1.17 (1.06-1.30), and among women, they were 1.05 (0.88-1.26) and 1.06 (0.88-1.28). Compared with the normal FPG group, the HR (95% CI) of the FPG-impaired group were 1.29 (1.13-1.48) in the total population, 1.26 (1.08-1.48) in men and 1.59 (1.14-2.21) in women. Taking the lowest quartile array as a reference, the HR (95% CI) of the highest quartile array of TyG was 1.73 (1.45-2.07) in the total population, 1.32 (1.14-1.53) in men and 1.87 (1.37-2.54) in women. TG, FPG had a nonlinear dose-response relationship with the risk of hypertension, while TyG had a linear correlation with the risk of hypertension. Conclusions:Higher TG, FPG, and TyG levels are independent risk factors for the incidence of hypertension. People with higher TG, FPG and TyG are at high risk for hypertension, to which close attention should be paid in the prevention and treatment of hypertension.

Objective:To explore the relationship between lipid indicators and the incidence of diabetes, and to compare the diabetes prediction and identification power of traditional lipid combined lipid indicators, in order to explore the best alternative indicators for identifying and predicting diabetes.Methods:Based on the Jinchang cohort, a nested case-control study was conducted in 1 025 new cases of diabetes after excluding patients with malignant tumor and related endocrine, circulatory system disease, then an age (±2 years), gender matched 1∶1 control group of 1 025 cases was set to analyze the relationship between the incidence of diabetes and lipid parameters.Results:Among the traditional lipid parameters, the fourth quartile of TG, TC, and LDL-C indicated higher risks of developing diabetes, which was 14.00 times (95% CI: 9.73-20.15), 2.15 times (95% CI: 1.65-2.79) and 1.66 times (95% CI: 1.29-2.14) than that of the first quartile, respectively. The risk of developing diabetes indicated by the fourth quartile of HDL-C was 0.21 times than that indicated by the first quartile (95% CI: 0.15-0.28). In the combined lipid parameters, the fourth quartile of TG/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C and non-HDL-C indicated higher risks of developing diabetes, which was 14.86 times (95% CI: 10.35-21.34), 8.12 times (95% CI: 5.94-11.01), 5.85 times (95% CI:4.34-7.88) and 5.20 times (95% CI: 3.85-7.03) than that indicated by the first quartile, respectively. The areas under the ROC curve of TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, TG/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C and non-HDL-C were 0.76 (95% CI: 0.74-0.78), 0.59 (95% CI: 0.57-0.61), 0.67 (95% CI: 0.65-0.69), 0.57 (95% CI: 0.55-0.59), 0.77 (95% CI: 0.75-0.78), 0.73 (95% CI: 0.71-0.75), 0.69 (95% CI: 0.67-0.71) and 0.66 (95% CI: 0.64-0.68), respectively. The optimal diabetes predicting point cuts of TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, TG/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C and non-HDL-C were 1.40, 4.70, 1.28, 3.25, 1.17, 3.43, 2.46, and 3.58 mmol/L, respectively. Conclusions:Lipid metabolic disorder is a risk factor for diabetes. TG and TG/HDL-C are the good lipid metabolism indicators for the prediction of diabetic.

Objective:To explore the relationship of body mass index and blood pressure with the incidence of diabetes in Jinchang cohort.Methods:We designed a nested case-control study, a total of 29 572 workers who had no history of diabetes in baseline survey in Jinchang cohort were selected as the study cohort from June 2011 to December 2013. After 2 year follow-up, 1 021 workers with first diagnosed diabetes were selected as the case group, after 1∶1 matching according to the same gender and age ±2 years among those without diabetes, circulatory system, or endocrine system diseases during the same follow-up period, 1 021 controls was selected and 2 042 subjects were finally included. We used multivariate conditional logistic regression model, additive interaction model and multiplicative interaction model to explore the relationship of body mass index and blood pressure with the incidence of diabetes.Results:After adjusting for factors such as occupation, alcohol use, family history of diabetes, hyperuricemia, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, low-HDL cholesterolemia and high-LDL cholesterolemia, multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of diabetes increased with body mass index and blood pressure. Hypertension and overweight/obesity had a multiplicative interaction on the incidence of diabetes. The risks of diabetes in men and women with hypertension and overweight/obese were 2.04 times (95% CI: 1.54-2.69) and 3.88 times (95% CI: 2.55-5.91) higher than those in men and women with normal body weight and blood pressure, respectively. In the combination of BMI and blood pressure, obese individuals with SBP≥160 mmHg were 4.57 times (95% CI: 2.50-8.34) more likely to have diabetes than those with normal BMI and SBP, obese individuals with DBP≥90 mmHg were 3.40 times (95% CI: 2.19-5.28) more likely to have diabetes than those with normal BMI and DBP. Conclusions:Overweight/obesity and hypertension can increase the risk of diabetes. Health education about body weight and blood pressure controls should be strengthened to reduce the risk of diabetes.

Objective:To establish an index system of population based SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening, and provide reference to determine the screening coverage appropriately.Methods:The literature review and brain storming sessions were used to develop the basic frame and index system of population based SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening. Based on Delphi method and Analytic Hierarchy Process, 21 domestic experts were selected for two rounds of consultation to determine the index system of population based SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening and its weight.Results:The positive indexes of experts in two rounds of consultations were both 100%. The experts' authority coefficients ( Cr) were 0.88±0.08 and 0.89±0.07, respectively. And the range of coefficient of variation ( CV) were (0.08, 0.24), (0.09, 0.25). The Kendall's W coordination coefficients were 0.34 and 0.22 respectively, which were statistically significant. The index system of population based SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening was established, which had 4 first-level indexes, 11 second-level indexes and 58 third-level indexes. Besides, the weight of each index was determined. Conclusion:The index system of population based SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening has been established, which can provide scientific reference for the health administration to determine the coverage of population based SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening when local COVID-19 epidemic occurs.
