Aim: To study the effect of Eudragit S-100, a pH-responsive polymer, on protein refolding level, using recombinant human keratinocyte growth factor-2 (rhKGF-2) as a model protein. Methods: The refolding of rh-KGF-2 was performed by directly diluting denatured rhKGF-2 into a refolding buffer containing different concentrations of Eudragit. The ability of Eudragit S-100 to enhance protein refolding level was investigated using MTT assay, reverse phase HPLC, fluorescence emission spectroscopy and circular dichroism spectroscopy. Results: The addition of Eudragit S-100 in the refolding buffer significantly increased the rhKGF-2 refolding yield to 71%, when dilution refolding was conducted at 0. 5 mg/mL rhKGF-2. The outcome from the refolding study showed possibility of a special interaction between rhKGF-2 and Eudragit, suggesting that the refolding-enhancing ability of Eudragit S-100 was due to this interaction between Eudragit S-100 and rhKGF-2. Mean while, the result showed that the concentration of urea was also an important factor for the optimization of the refolding in the presence of Eudragit. Conclusion: Eudragit S-100 can significantly increase the refolding level of rhKGF-2.

Objective: To investigate the screening results of adolescent scoliosis in Chuzhou City, Anhui Province, and analyze the influencing factors for scoliosis, so as to provide insights into the prevention and control of scoliosis among adolescents. Methods: Students were selected from six primary and middle schools in Chuzhou City using the stratified random cluster sampling method from April to June 2023. Demographic information, daily behaviors and postures, and exercise status were collected through questionnaire surveys. Scoliosis was screened and diagnosed according to the Screening for Abnormal Spinal Curvature in Children and Adolescents. Influencing factors for scoliosis among primary and middle school students were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 1 823 questionnaires were allocated, and 1 768 effective questionnaires were recovered, with an effective response rate of 96.98%. There were 537 primary school students, 1 000 junior high school students and 231 senior high school students, with an average age of (13.40±1.92) years. There were 948 male students (53.62%) and 820 female students (46.38%). A total of 131 cases of scoliosis were screened positive, with a positive rate of 7.41%. The results of multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender (female, OR=1.759, 95%CI: 1.135-2.727), body mass index (OR=0.593, 95%CI: 0.538-0.654), sleeping position (side lying, OR=0.598, 95%CI: 0.377-0.951; prone lying, OR=2.336, 95%CI: 1.201-4.545), frequency of reading in bed (often, OR=2.099, 95%CI: 1.201-3.670), way of carrying backpack (shoulders, OR=0.580, 95%CI: 0.370-0.908), and exercise level (OR=0.428, 95%CI: 0.296-0.618) were influencing factors of scoliosis among primary and middle school students. Conclusion The positive rate of scoliosis screening among primary and middle school students in Chuzhou City was 7.41%, which was influenced by gender, age, body mass index, sleeping posture, reading in bed, way of carrying backpack and exercise level.

Objective to investigate the feasibility and outcomes of different surgical treatments for adrenal metastasis after previous radical ne-phrectomy for patients with renal cell carcinoma. Methods A total of 18 adrenal solitary metastasis of renal cell carcinoma were identified from da-tabase of two institutions between 2003 and 2013. Clinical and pathologic data were collected and analyzed. Results Of 9 patients who had ipsilater-al metastasis of the renal tumor,the estimated blood loss were obviously fewer in the transperitoneal LA group. Of 9 cases who had contralateral me-tastasis of the renal tumor,the fasting time[(1.4±0.8)h vs(4.0±1.4)h,P = 0.036]and length of hospital stay[(4.5±1.2)d vs(7.0±4.5)d,P =0.041]were obviously fewer in the retroperitoneal LA group. the averages of the fasting time and length of hospital stay in the retroperitoneal LA group were obviously smaller than in the transperitoneal LA group. Conclusion LA for treatment of renal cell carcinoma metastasis is technically feasible in selected patients. transperitoneal and retroperitoneal LA can be respectively recommended as an appropriate approach for isolated adrenal metastases of ipsilateral and contralateral renal cell carcinoma after nephrectomy.

Objective:Living organ transplantation prolongs the life of many dying patients, but there are many disputes, especially the definition ofliving organ transplantation between non relatives. The definition of this ter-minology is closely related to medical students′cognitive ofliving organ transplantation between non relatives. The medical students are the main reserve army of medical staff and the executor of living donor organ transplantation in the future, who directly determine the organ transplantation and affect the doctor-patient relationship. This paper is to investigate and analyze the status of the medical students′recognition of cross transplantation between non rela-tives. Methods:A total of 450 medical students of Qingdao university were selected with cluster method and were investigated using self-designed questionnaire. Data were analyzed by SPSS 22. 0. Results:The overall recogni-tion rate toliving organ cross transplantation between non relatives was relatively low. The difference was statisti-cally significant (P<0. 05), namely that students in higher grade had lower recognition. The difference was statis-tically significant (P < 0. 05) between different specialties, and the recognition degree of students majoring in clinical medicine and ecsomatics was higher. Conclusion:The medical students of Qingdao University understand the concept of living organ cross transplantation between non relativesfuzzily, and the recognition degree is low.

Objective To survey ST-segment resolution in STEMI patients undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to find the specific clinical features of patients with inadequate ST-segment resolution.Methods A total of 198 patients were divided into two groups according to the ratio of ST-segment resolution:relatively adequate ST-segment resolution group (＞ 50％) and inadequate STsegment resolution group (＜ 50％).The clinical features,infarct-related artery and PCI-related evants were evaluated,and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE including target vessel revascularization,recurrent myocardial infarction,or death) were recorded during hospitalization and follow-up period.Multivariate logistic analysis was used to identify relevant factors influencing ST-segment resolution of STEMI patients after treatment with PCI.The Statistical analyses of data were carried out using SPSS 10.0 software.Results (1) There were 156 patients with relativey adequate ST-segment resolution and 42 patients with inadequate ST-segment resolution.Of them,there were higher percentage of patients aged over 75years in the inadequate ST-segment resolution group than those in the relatively adequate ST-segment resolution group (9 cases,21.4％ vs.14 cases,9.0％ ; P ＜0.05).(2) In inadequate ST-segment resolution group,thetotal ischemic time was significant longer [(5.2 ±2.2) h vs.(3.0 ± 1.6) h,P ＜0.01].The infarctrelated artery (IRA) was more common at left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) (27 cases,64.3％ vs.69 cases,44.2％; P ＜ 0.05) and there were fewer patients with TIM grade 3 of IRA in inadequate ST-segment resolution group after primary PCI than that in relative adequate ST-segment resolution group (32 cases,76.2％ vs.140 cases,89.7％ ; P ＜ 0.05).There was a lower rate of using GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a receptor antagonist and a higher rate of prescribing IABP in inadequate ST-segment resolution group.(3) There is a higher incidence of MACE during hospitalization and follow-up period in patients with inadequate ST-segment resolution.(4) Multivariate logistic analysis indicated that age over 75 years,LAD occlusion,the total ischemic time were related to ST-segment resolution.Conclusions The patients with age over 75 years,LAD occlusion,longer ischemia time,and unemployment GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a receptor antagonist before PCI were prone to get inadequate ST-segment resolution and poor prognosis.Age over 75 years,LAD occlusion,and longer ischemic time were independent risk factors of the inadequate ST-segment resolution in STEMI patients after emergency PCI.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has a long history in treating infectious diseases, and the form of intervention varies with different medical conditions and disease types. "The battle field of Chinese doctor for anti-epidemic" was formed in fighting against severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemics in China, and from the battle, valuable experiences of using TCM for prevention and treatment had been obtained. During responding to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemics, we followed the principle of keeping summary and perfection while treament. And a whole process of TCM pattern or a model was organized, including early prevention in communities, cluster intervention in isolated places, comprehensive intervention in mobile cabin hospitals, centralized treatment in designated hospitals and rehabilitation support in rehabilitation posts. Thus, the innovation of whole process of TCM intervention was involved in the "trench warfare" strategy and platform system for prevention and treatment of new infectious COVID-19 epidemics. At different stages or conditions, different TCMs were used to play advantageous roles to solve various problems and elevate the effects of prevention and treatment of the disease. The construction of TCM mobile cabin hospitals was an innovation of organization form that might offset the constraints in technology and scale of simple community isolation or simple hospital treatment, exploring a new way for TCM to cope with public health emergencies.

Objective:To explore the clinical pathological characteristics and improve the recognition in the diagnosis and treatment of incidental (stage T1a -T1b)prostate cancer.Methods:Seven hundred and seventy-one patients who underwent TURP from May 2004 to September 2013 were analyzed retro-spectively.In our institution,TURP specimens should be totally submitted in an extensive sampling method.The tumor area was outlined by estimation of an experienced genitourinary pathologist and calcu-lated by the image analysis system software (Image J 1.47 h).The tumor area was then multiplied by the thickness of tissue.The total sum of all tumor volume was the estimated tumor volume.The clinical and pathological factors,follow-up results were obtained and we aimed to collect information about the period of watchful waiting (WW),PSA progression status,intervention status during the follow-up,the reason for intervention on WW and the type of intervention.Results:The average age of 771 patients was (71.3 ±5.9)years old,and the average BMI was (23.9 ±3.1)kg/m2 ,preoperative average tPSA was (4.4 ±2.8)μg/L.Eighty-six (11.2%)cases of incidental prostate cancer were detected.The patients in T1a group (77 cases,89.5%)had tumor volumes of (12.3 ±12.6)mm3 ,and the patients in T1b group had tumor volumes of (105.1 ±41.8)mm3 .The range of tumor volume was 0.4 -180.2 mm3 . The volume of all the 86 cases was less than 500 mm3 as the threshold of insignificant cancer.All the pa-tients were managed by WW.The mean follow-up time was 88.9 (27.9 -150.1)months.The Gleason score was <7 in 79 patients,and ≥7 in 7 patients.There was no significant difference in age,preopera-tive tPSA,preoperative PSAD,postoperative tPSA,prostate volume and TURP resection between T1a group and T1b group (P >0.05).Among 84 patients without follow-up losts,PSA progression occurred in 5 patients.One T1a patient underwent radical prostatectomy (RP)as an intervention,and 3 patients underwent hormone therapy.One patient in T1b group underwent radiotherapy for PSA progression and one was treated because of patient preference without evidence of disease progression.There were no pa-tients who died due to prostate cancer.Conclusion:Eighty-six (11.2%)cases of incidental prostate cancer were detected.The tumor volume of all the cases was insignificant cancer.The clinical outcomes of IPCa were satisfactory with the initial treatment of WW in the Chinese population.

Objective:To investigate the effects of nimodipine on cognitive function in patients with Alzheimer's disease.Methods:A total of 200 patients with Alzheimer's disease who received treatment in Shuangqiao Hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group ( n = 100/group). The control group was treated with Donepezil. The observation group was treated with nimodipine and Donepezil. Before and 2 months after treatment, mental status and cognitive function were evaluated in each group. Results:After treatment, total response rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [95% (95/100) vs. 81% (81/100), χ2 = 9.58, P < 0.05]. Alzheimer's disease assessment scale cognitive subscale score was significantly lower after treatment compared with before treatment in each group ( P < 0.05). Mini-mental State Examination score was significantly higher after treatment compared with before treatment in each group ( P < 0.05). Alzheimer's disease assessment scale cognitive subscale score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(17.38 ± 1.95) points vs. (29.63 ± 3.39) points, t = -3.26, P < 0.05]. Mini-mental State Examination score in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(23.47 ± 4.59) points vs. (18.68 ± 3.91) points, t = 2.14, P < 0.05]. Conclusion:Nimodipine can improve cognitive function in patients with Alzheimer's disease.

Objective To investigate the changes in dietary behavior and physical exercise of people of different ages during the epidemic of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), and to explore the influencing factors of weight gain. Methods A structured electronic questionnaire was used to investigate the basic conditions, weight, eating behavior and physical exercise of 1 125 subjects. The χ² test or non-parametric test was used to compare the changes in the three age groups (<30, 30~65, >65 years), and Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the factors affecting weight gain. Results Among the three age groups, young people under 30 years old changed greatly in the consumption of grains, red meat, and high-calorie snacks, and in the physical exercise, and there was a significant amount of people experiencing such changes, while for those older than 65 years old, the frequency of intake of grains, red meat, and high-calorie snacks before and after the outbreak was basically unchanged. In addition, compared with the population who basically did not change dietary behavior during the epidemic, the increase in the consumption of grains (OR = 2.469), red meat (OR = 1.582), and high-calorie snacks (OR = 1.815), and the decrease in physical exercise (OR = 1.702 ) were independent risk factors for weight gain during the epidemic (P <0.05). Conclusions During the epidemic of COVID-19, the young people (<30 years old) experienced the largest changes in dietary intake (grain, red meat, and high-calorie snacks) and exercise, while the elderly people (>65 years old) maintained basically unchanged. The increased intake of grains, red meat and high-calorie snacks, and lack of physical exercise could lead to weight gain.
