Objective:To evaluate the effect of remote lifestyle intervention on the management of weight and related indicators in the overweight and obese population.Methods:A total of 400 individuals with overweight or obesity who participated in remote lifestyle intervention in the Health Management Department of Shenzhen People′s Hospital from May 2015 to December 2018 were included as the remote intervention group, and 400 individuals with overweight and obesity who matched their age and gender were selected as the control group. Dietician established individual WeChat groups with the remote intervention group, and the WeChat platform was used to conduct remote lifestyle intervention for them, including setting weight control goals, giving timely feedback to the food log based on photos, providing exercise guidance and psychological support. The control group received personalized diet and exercise prescriptions, but did not receive remote intervention. After adjusting the data by propensity score matching method, univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the management effect of weight and related indicators in the two groups after one year.Results:After one year of intervention, effective data were obtained from a total of 755 cases (371 cases in the remote intervention group and 384 cases in the control group), and effective data were retained from 446 cases (223 cases in the remote intervention group and 223 cases in the control group) after bias matching. The body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, and serum uric acid of the remote intervention group [(24.85±2.52) kg/m 2, (110.21±10.53) mmHg, (4.96±0.65) mmol/L, (1.25±0.82) mmol/L, (4.87±1.11) mmol/L, (2.88±0.74) mmol/L, and (306.01±95.66) mmol/L respectively] were significantly lower than that of the control group [(27.76±2.28) kg/m 2, (121.14±14.07) mmHg, (5.10±0.87) mmol/L, (1.54±0.83) mmol/L, (5.28±0.96) mmol/L, (3.13±0.80) mmol/L, (355.16±92.68) mmol/L respectively] (all P<0.05). After intervention, intervention was consistently being influencing factors when BMI was reduced by 4%―12%, ( P<0.05). The probability of a 12% reduction in BMI in the remote intervention group was 112.486 times higher than that in the control group (95% CI: 16.852-890.266). At the same time, the initial BMI was an influential factor for the restoration of normal BMI. For every 1 kg/m 2 decrease in the initial BMI, the probability of restoration of normal BMI was 4.76 times higher than that before the decrease (95% CI: 3.222-5.057). Conclusions:Remote lifestyle intervention has a certain effect on the management of weight and related indicators in the overweight and obese populations. It has significant effect on weight loss of overweight and mildly obese people, but has limited effect on moderate and severe obese people.

4"-O-isovaleryltransferase gene (ist) was regulated by positive regulatory genes of midecamycin 4"-O-propionyltransferase gene (mpt) in Streptomyces lividans TK24. A BamH I ~8.0 kb fragment from Streptomyces mycarofaciens 1748 was proved that it contained mpt gene and linked with two positive regulatory genes, orf27 and orf28. Orf of mpt was replaced by orf of ist and linked with two regulatory genes or orf27 single, and individually cloned into the vectors pKC1139 or pWHM3 (high copy number), and then transformed into S. lividans TK24. The levels of mpt and ist expression were evaluated by the bio-tramsformation efficacy of spiramycin into 4"-O-acylspiramycins in these transformants. The results showed that 4"-O-isovalerylspiramycins could be detected only in the transformants containing the plasmids constructed with pWHM3. The efficacy of bio-transformation of the transformants containing two regulatory genes was higher than that of orf27 single. So, the positive regulatory genes system of mpt gene could enhance ist gene expression.

The MUI of all these adolescents Was 231.7μg/L, which was slightly higher than the current World Health Organization recommendation.

Objective In order to know the influence factors about treatment compliance among patients with type 2 diabetes,and then offer certain positive reference for health education and prevention.Methods Selected 504 patients with type 2 diabetes among 4 hospitals in Guangzhou,interviewed them by self-designed questionnaire.The interview contents included patients' basic socio-demographic characteristics,treatment compliance,diabetes knowledge,social supprot and self-efficacy,and then analyzed the datum about the interview.Results After adjusting for gender,disease course,patients' type,education level,and incoming level,multiple linear regression analysis indicated that drug treatment compliance was positively associated with age,subjective social support,objective social support and degree of support utilization.Lifestyle was positively associated with age,objective social support and degree of support utilization.Conclusions There are several factors associated with the treatment compliance of patients with type 2 diabetes,enhance paitents' self-efficacy and carry out health education are the keys to promote their treatment compliance.

One patient confirmed as pituitary carcinoma by histopathology was retrospectively analyzed according to the great changes of tumor invasive growth in imaging examine and clinical characters. Clinically,pituitary carcinoma quickly grows,and the growth character of tumor is helpful in the diagnosis. Moreover,the treatment for pituitary carcinoma is different from pituitary adenoma.The rapid progress of pituitary adenoma indicates the possibility of primary carcinoma.More experience should be accumulated for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with negative pressure system in one-stage treatment of calculus pyonephrosis.Methods Eighty-three cases of calculus pyonephrosis,including 15 upper ureteral calculus cases,9 renal pelvis calculus cases,28 multiple calculus cases and 31 staghorn calculus cases,were retrospectively analysed.The diameter of the stone was from 1.2 to 6.3 cm.All the patients were punctured under X-ray or ultrasound guidance and established an access of 20 F.A 12 F nephroscope,combined with negative pressure system,was inserted to the collecting system to suck off the liquor pus.The stone was fragmented by pneumatic lithotripsy or holmium laser lithotripsy at one-stage.Negative pressure system was used to reduce the intrapelvic pressure during the operation.Results All the patients were treated successfully.The average operative time was 34 ± 19 min.The upper ureteral calculus and renal pelvis calculus cases were all stonefree at one-stage treatment.Of the other 59 cases,33 cases were stone-free and 26 cases need a secondlook.The total stone free rate was 68.7％(57/83)at one-stage and 91.6％(76/83)at second-look.Only 7 patients had fever after operation and no patient had sepsis or shock.Conclusion Combined with negative pressure system,minimally invasive percutaueous nephrolithotomy via a 20 F tract is safe and effective for one-stage treatment of calculus pyonephrosis.

Objective To explore the risk factors ,prevention and treatment of the occurrence of perirenal hematoma after flexible lithotripsy. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 18 patients with symptomatic perirenal hematoma from 1259 who had undergone ureteral flexible lithotripsy in our hospital during the period of April 2007 to April 2016. Of the 18 patients,7 were complicated with diabetes mellitus,11 had urinary tract infection;15 were female,and 3 were male. Results Perirenal hematoma was confirmed by B ultrasound and CT,which situated on the Posterolateral side of the kidney in 8 patients,and on the lower pole and abdominal side in 10. Hematoma depth was 2.6-15.3 cm(average was 5.2 cm). The hematoma?related symptoms gradually disappeared in 11 patients 7 to 14 days after they received conservative treatment. 5 recovered gradually 15 days after undergoing hematoma puncture and drainage ,and 2 recovered 36 days after receiving open surgery for removal of hematoma. Conclusions Female,diabetes,urinary tract infection,bigger stone size,prolonged surgical duration,and infected stones were the risk factors for perinephric hematoma related to ureteroscopic lithotripsy. Full preoperative preparation ,effective anti?infection ,intraoperative improvement of calculus?breaking skills and use of large caliber semirigid through sheath,low pressure perfusion,shorter surgical duration,and staging surgery are effective ways to reduce the occurrence of perirenal hematoma.

Objective To compare the efficiency and safety of double-channel flexible ureteroscopy and electronic flexible ureteroscopy.Methods From April 2007 to 2016 July, clinical data of 836 cases flexible ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy were collected. All the patients were randomly divided into electronic lfexible ureteroscopy group (n = 427) and double-channel lfexible ureteroscopy group (n = 409), the operation time, success rate of surgery, complications, residual stone rate of the two groups were compared.Results The success rate of surgery was 92.5% and 83.6% of the two groups respectively, the difference was significant (P < 0.05); postoperative systemic inlfammatory response syndrome (SIRS) were occurred in 10 cases and 13 cases respectively, which were cured and the difference was not statistically significant (P > 0.05); the average operation time was (81.1 ± 7.9) min and (95.3 ± 7.6) min respectively, the difference was significant (P < 0.05); The formation of stone street of electronic lfexible ureteroscopy group and double-channel lfexible ureteroscopy group were 17 cases and 25 cases. The residual stone rate of electronic flexible ureteroscopy group and double-channel flexible ureteroscopy group were 6 cases and 8 cases, of them were cleared after extracorporeal shockwave lithotrips (ESWL). There were no difference between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Both double-channel lfexible ureteroscopy and electronic lfexible ureteroscopy are effective and safe therapeutic modalities. Electronic flexible ureteroscopy is better than double-channel lfexible ureteroscopy in success rate of surgery because of its high deifnition and lfexible operation.

Geldanamycin (Gdm), an inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), shows antitumor and antivirus bioactivity. Most Geldanamycin biosynthetic genes have been cloned from the genome library of Streptomyces hygroscopicus 17997. In this report, polyketide synthase (pks) gene, mono-oxygenase (gdmM) gene and carbamoyltransferase gene (gdmN) were subjected to inactivation. Three gene disrupted mutants (deltapks, deltagdmM and deltagdmN) were obtained by double crossover. No Geldanamycin production was detected in three mutant strains cultured in fermentation broth. Gene complementation experiments excluded the possible polar effect of gene disruption on other genes. These results confirmed that pks, gdmM and gdmN genes were essential for Geldanamycin biosynthesis.

Two LAL family regulatory genes, gdmRI and gdmRII, were identified in the geldanamycin biosynthetic gene cluster of Streptomyces hygroscopicus 17997. Disruption of the two regulatory genes resulted in absolute elimination of geldanamycin biosynthesis. The complementation experiments using a single wild-type gene could restore geldanamycin production. These results indicated that both gdmRI and gdmRII were positive regulatory genes of the geldanamycin biosynthesis.
