BACKGROUND:Previous studies have demonstrated that transplantation of control ed release glial cellline-derived neurotrophic factor and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells-derived neuron-like cells can effectively promote the motor function and sensory function recovery of rhesus monkeys with spinal cord injury.
OBJECTIVE:To validate whether co-transplantation of control ed release glial cellline-derived neurotrophic factor and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells-derived neuron-like cells exhibits better protective effects on spinal cord glial scar of rhesus monkeys with spinal cord injury than celltransplantation alone.
METHODS:Twelve rhesus monkeys were col ected to prepare animal models of acute severe spinal cord injury using modified Al en’s method, and then randomly divided into three groups:experimental group, co-transplantation of control ed release glial cellline-derived neurotrophic factor and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells-derived neuron-like cells;control group, simple transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells-derived neuron-like cells;blank control group, PBS. After 5 months, paraffin specimens of the spinal cord were made for detection of morphological and compositional characteristics of glial scar, regeneration of nerve fibers in the scar, glial scar area, and average absorbance of glial fibril ary acidic protein.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Glial scar in the injured spinal cord was composed of astrocytes and histocytes. Less spinal cord glial scar area and lower absorbance value could be observed in the experimental and control groups as compared with the blank control group (P<0.05). In addition, in the blank control group, neurofilament negative fibers could be observed in the glial scar, and astrocytes proliferated obviously. The experimental and control groups showed less fibers passed through the scar area. The glial scar area and average absorbance in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). These findings suggest that compared with simple transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells-derived neuron-like cells, co-transplantation of control ed release glial cellline-derived neurotrophic factor and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells-derived neuron-like cells shows better protective effects spinal tissue structure after spinal cord injury, which may be one of mechanisms by which the number of glial scars is reduced to a greater extent.

Objective :
To examine the association between acute exposure to traffic-related air pollutants (TRAP) NOX and NO2 and outpatient visits of pediatric respiratory diseases.
Methods :
Data regarding outpatient visits to Department of Respiratory Diseases of Beijing Children's Hospital from 2015 to 2020 were collected, and the concentrations of nitrogen oxides (NOX), nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and other TRAP were collected from the surveillance sites assigned by the Peking University Health Science Center. A time-stratified case-crossover design was employed, and a conditional logistic regression model was created to examine the association between NOX and NO2 acute exposure and outpatient visits of pediatric respiratory diseases.
Results :
The daily mean outpatient visits of pediatric respiratory diseases were 571 (interquartile range, 554) person-times among children at ages of 0 to 14 years in Beijing Children's Hospital from 2015 to 2020, and the daily mean outpatient visits for upper respiratory tract infections (URI), bronchitis, and pneumonia were 265 (interquartile range, 282), 143 (interquartile range, 178) and 128 (interquartile range, 120) person-times, respectively. The daily mean concentrations of atmospheric NOX and NO2 were 67.8 (interquartile range, 50.7) and 49.3 (interquartile range, 30.7) μg/m3, respectively. Conditional logistic regression analysis showed the largest lagged effect of NOX and NO2 on pediatric respiratory diseases at cumulative lags of 0 to 7 days. An increase in NOX concentrations by an interquartile range resulted in the excess risks of URI, bronchitis and pneumonia by 6.87% (95%CI: 6.37%-7.38%), 7.25% (95%CI: 6.51%-7.99%), and 5.51% (95%CI: 4.69%-6.33%), and an increase in NO2 concentrations by an interquartile range resulted in excess risks of URI, bronchitis and pneumonia by 5.71% (95%CI: 5.12%-6.31%), 5.32% (95%CI: 4.51%-6.14%), and 4.83% (95%CI: 3.91%-5.75%), respectively. NOX and NO2 presented a more remarkable effect on outpatient visits of pediatric respiratory diseases among children at ages of over 5 years.
Conclusion
NOx and NO2 acute exposure may increase the outpatient visits of pediatric respiratory diseases.

Objective:
To investigate parents acceptance to the COVID-19 vaccine booster shots for their children aged 3-11 years in Nanjing based on the theory of planned behavior, and to provide a scientific theoretical basis for carrying out COVID-19 booster vaccination among children of this age group.
Methods:
A total of 1 286 parents of children aged 3-11 years in Nanjing were selected by multistage stratified cluster sampling. A questionnaire survey based on the theory of planned behavior was used to investigate their willingness to vaccinate their children with the COVID-19 booster dose, and structural equation model was used to conduct data analysis.
Results:
About 90.2% of parents were willing to give their children a booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. The model constructed based on the theory of planned behavior could explain 42.2% of the variance of vaccination acceptance. Attitudes and perceived behavioral control had a direct positive effect on parents acceptance to booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine (path coefficients were 0.47 and 0.18, P <0.01); The direct effect of subjective norms on vaccination acceptance was not statistically significant; Perceived behavioral control and subjective norms could have indirect positive effects on vaccination acceptance through attitudes (path coefficients were 0.27 and 0.13, P <0.01).
Conclusion
Parents in Nanjing have a higher acceptance to vaccinate their children aged 3-11 years with the COVID-19 vaccine booster dose. The theory of planned behavior shows a good explanatory ability on parents acceptance to vaccinate their children, and attitude plays an important role in the formation of vaccination acceptance.
