ObjectiveTo study the characteristics and risk factors of traffic injuries among the adolescents (0-19 years old) in the urban and rural areas of Chongqing and discuss the preventive strategy. MethodsData of road traffic crashes and injuries involving 0-19 years old adolescents over a seven-year period (2000-2006) in three districts of Chongqing was picked up from Road _Traffic Crashes and Injuries Database. Epidemiological characteristics of the traffic crashes and injuries among 0-19 years old adolescents were analyzed and differences between rural and urban areas were studied. ResultsFrom 2000 to 2006, both incidence rate and mortality rate peaked in the urban fringe area were 95.43/100 000 and 3.44/100 000 respectively. Traffic accidents in the suburbs and counties had the highest injury extent, with mortality rate of 9.06% and severe injury rate of 17.33%. Brain injuries were the primary cause of death. Among the victims, 62.7% were the pedestrians, of which 20.72% bore equal responsibility because of disobeying traffic signals, suddenly walking across roads and not walking along the sidewalk. Ninety percentage of the traffic accidents occurred in the sections with no traffic signals or traffic control system. ConclusionIt is important to enhance the traffic safety consciousness of teenagers and children, strengthen preventive measures in fringe areas and rural areas and improve the emergency medical system in rural areas to provide the teenagers and children with a safety traffic environment.

Objective To research the effect mechanism of ultrashortwave in the correlation of ultrashortwave and the tail replantation, provide the experiment basis of clinical practice of prevention and cure for the vascular crisis after micromodule anastomosis. Methods Eighty Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats of clean grade were 3-month-old,female,and were divided into four groups:control group (group 0),model group (group 1 ),contrast group (group 2),ultrashortwave (USW) group (group 3).The preparation of tail replantation model was cut off soft tissue except for caudal veins on both sides of the tail. The coccyx was not broken away from tail.At last,the audal artery under abdominal main centre ditch was anastomosed.In experiment process, the USW group was divided into high dosage group (group 3A) and low dosage group (group 3B). The caudal arterys were ligated and not anastomosed in the group 0. Caudal arterys in other groups were anastomosed.Rats in the group 0 and group 1 received no treatment,normal management after the operation. Rats in the group 2 were given abdominal cavity injection of papaverin liquid immediately,then once a day to 5 days after the tail replantation.Rats in the group 3 were immediately given USW therapy of twenty minutes on the anastomosis section,and then once a day for 5 days after the tail replantation.The USW dosage of group 3A was 3th grade and 50mA. The USW dosage of group 3B was 2th grade and 28mA.The survival rate of the rat tails was observed after the tail replantation for 10 day.Before being grouped,it was measured that the tail skin temperature diference between near and far side of anastomosis section.After the tail relpantation, the temperature diference was inspected daily for 10 postoperative days hence. Before rats were grouped and the eighth hour after the tail replantation, rats were collected blood plasma specimens and measured contents of nitric oxide with destination colorimetric mathods of nitric oxide.Results Carrying out comparison of survival rate of every group,the output weve:between tail cutting off group (group 0,0) and tail replantation group (group 1,2,3,43.94%) to compare P > 0.05; between each group of the tail replantation groups (1,2,3A,3B group) to compare P> 0.05,group 3B < 2 < 1 < 3A; between group 3B and group 1 to compare P > 0.05; between group 2 and group 1 to compare P > 0.05. Each group were compared with the change daily between postoperative and preceding operative the skin temperature diference,single-factor analysis of variance (One-Way ANOVA) analysis:Postoperative 1 day,group 3A < 1,P < 0.05.Postoperative 6 day:3A < 3B < 1 < 2,P > 0.05.Postoperative 7 day:group 3B < 1 < 3A < 2,P < 0.05.Each group were compared with the change of the content of nitric oxide between postoperative 8 hour and preceding operative,with rank-sum test:group 3B > 3A > 2 > 1 > 0,H =33.760,P < 0.05,shows statistically significant.Conclusions USW therapy,especially USW low-dose therapy,can reduce vascular crisis and improve the survival rate of replanted rat tails,after the postoperative 1,6,7 days,reduce skin temperature,improve blood supply,improve nitric oxide at postoperative eighth hour,prevent vascular crisis.Rat tail replantation model in this experiment is feasible.

In order to find the linear region of adjustment process about human body balance under the passive movement, and provide the basis for the unified evaluation criteria of passive balance test, an equipment was built with pulsed excitation source and wave detector of gravity's center. The pulsed excitation source was a multi-dimensional motion platform with high accuracy. The wave detector was a force platform. Human body and force platform were treated as a whole object, and the dynamic model of the object was built using the method of system identification. The balance ability was evaluated by setting time. In the pulse excitement range from 2mm to 20 mm with 2mm increments, balance ability of 5 students was evaluated and analyzed respectively. Results showed that response curve of human balance regulation was a typical second order linear system characteristic, and in a large enough linear region, the evaluating result had good consistency.

OBJECTIVE To explore the risk signal of ixazomib and provide a reference for clinically rational drug use. METHODS The Open Vigil 2.1 online tool was used to extract the data of adverse drug events (ADE) reported by the database of FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) from the launch of ixazomib in America (November 20th, 2015) to the latest update of the Open Vigil website (March 31st, 2023). The data were mined by using the proportional reporting ratio (PRR) and Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN) of the proportional imbalance method. The signals were coded by system organ class (SOC) and preferred term (PT) according to MedDRA v25.1. RESULTS A total of 13 841 ADE reports with ixazomib as the “primary subject” were extracted, involving slightly more male patients (49.53%), and most of them were 65 years old and above (72.48%); the reports came from 57 countries/regions, mainly America (52.90%). A total of 186 positive signals were excavated, with 51 high-intensity, 99 medium-intensity, and 36 low-intensity signals, involving 19 SOCs. The top 50 PT in frequency and signal intensity of PRR included neuropathy peripheral (414 cases, high-intensity signal), platelet count decreased (379 cases, high-intensity signal), thrombocytopenia (360 cases, high-intensity signal), cytopenia (75 cases, high-intensity signal) and neurological symptoms (41 cases, high-intensity signal). SOC involved included nervous system disorders, investigations, and blood and lymphatic system disorders. ADE occurred most frequently in gastrointestinal diseases (2 588 cases), including diarrhea (1 077 cases, high-intensity signal), nausea (737 cases, medium-intensity signal), vomiting (459 cases, medium-intensity signal), constipation (275 cases, medium-intensity signal), and so on. The positive signals of infections and infestations contained the largest number of PTs, and most of them were not recorded in the drug instruction, including 12 high-intensity signals (1 030 cases) and 30 medium-intensity signals (627 cases), which were mainly distributed in lung infection, upper respiratory infection, gastrointestinal infection, sepsis, herpes zoster and so on. The signals of cardiac amyloidosis (7 cases, high-intensity signal) and acute coronary syndrome (14 cases, high-intensity signal) of cardiac disorders and renal dysfunction (91 cases, medium-intensity signal) of renal and urinary disorders were all strong and had not been recorded in the drug instruction. CONCLUSIONS In addition to routine attention to the common ADE of ixazomib in gastrointestinal diseases,nervous system disorders and blood and lymphatic system disorders, clinical attention should also be paid to various infections that may occur during the treatment of patients, and the occurrence of cardiovascular toxicity and renal dysfunction should be monitored.

AIM: To explore the molecular mechanism of sequoiaflavone affecting gastric cancer cells. MEHTODS: Gastric cancer cell line AGS cells were treated with gradient concentrations of sequoiaflavone, and then induced by PI3K/AKT signaling pathway activator. The optimal inhibitory concentration and time of semi-inhibitory concentration of red cedar flavonoid on AGS cells were detected by CCK-8, and the changes of cell proliferation, migration and invasion ability were detected by colony formation assay, transwell assay and wound healing assay. PI3K/AKT signal pathway related proteins p-PI3K, PI3K, p-AKT and AKT were detected by western blot. RESULTS: Sequoiaflavone inhibited AGS cells in a concentration-dependent manner. The half inhibitory concentration was 0.5 mmol/L, the optimal treatment time was 48 h. The protein expression of p-PI3K and p-AKT was down regulated. The proliferation, migration and invasion of AGS cells were decreased after treated with sequoiaflavone. After treated with PI3K / AKT signal pathway activator, the protein expression level of pPI3K and p-AKT was partially reversed, and the ability of cell viability, proliferation, migration and invasion was also partially improved. CONCLUSION: Inactivation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway caused by sequoiaflavone inhibited gastric cancer cells proliferation, migration and invasion ability.
