Although Chinese government has input a lot of financial and administrative resources to resolve the problem of “swill-cooked dirty oil”, its policy effect is not so ideal.Meanwhile , a series of challenges such as defec-tive institutional design of kitchen waste recycling and weak regulatory capacity.This paper argues that its overlook on technological innovation and industrial policy have partially led to its policy failure on this issue .Also, this paper summarizes impact factors from the perspectives of technological innovation , industrial policy and government regula-tion.A series of feasible policies include promoting business technological innovation capacity , offering financial sup-ports to industrial development , establishing a long-term plan on kitchen waste recycling and quota system for biodiesel using.Finally, it argues Chinese government should combine its regulatory policy with its technological innovation and industrial policy to achieve its dual policy goals between food safety governance and circular economy development .

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is an epithelial cell growth factor that can stimulate intestinal development, repair the damage of epidermal cells as well as reduce the incidence of pathogen infection and diarrhea. In order to produce a recombinant Lactobacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) expressing porcine epidermal growth factor (pEGF), we constructed a recombinant vector stably expressing pEGF in L. plantarum strains. First, L. plantarum strain Lp-1 was isolated from intestinal contents of piglets. Then the functional domain of pEGF, M6 precursor protein signal peptide (SP) and super strong constitutive promoter (SCP) were connected with the backbone plasmid pIAβ8 to construct the recombinant vector that was transformed into Lp-1 by electroporation. Afterwards, pEGF was expressed in Lp-1 and detected by Tricine-SDS-PAGE and ELISA. After orally irrigated early-weaned BALB/c mice with the recombinant L. plantarum every morning and late afternoon for 10 consecutive days, body weight, villous height and crypt depth in the intestine were measured to examine the influence of the recombinant bacteria on the intestinal development of early-weaned mice in vivo. Finally, the results of our experiments demonstrated that pEGF was successfully expressed in Lp-1 and the molecular weight of pEGF was 6 kDa. In addition, the recombinant pEGF can enhanced the daily gain and exerted significance influence (P < 0.05) to the small intestinal morphology of early-weaned BALB/c mice. In conclusion, pEGF could be expressed in L. plantarum and the recombinant pEGF possesses good biological activity.

For the male, the frequency of AA genotype was significantly more in cases (25.7%) than that in controls (10.3%） (P=0.041), and the frequency of A allele was trended to more in cases (48.6%) than in controls (34.6%) (P=0.051). ConclusionA allele and AA genotype of the 5-59A/G (rs2241027) of Htra2 gene may increase the risk of suffering from Parkinson's disease, especially for males.

Objective:To compare the preterm birth rate among different age groups and analyze relative high-risk factors of preterm birth.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of single pregnant women ≥28 gestational weeks from January 2013 to May 2019 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical Hospital. All involved women were divided into three groups according to age, Group 1 (aged<35 years), Group 2 (aged 35-39 years), and Group 3 (aged ≥40 years). The preterm birth rate among 3 groups was compared and their high-risk factors were analyzed.Results:There were 48 288 singleton pregnancies during the study period, of which 3 351 were preterm births， preterm birth rate was 6.94% (3 351/48 288). In Group 1, there were 42 020 women, of which 2 699 were preterm births (6.42%, 2 699/42 020); in Group 2, there were 5 061 women, of which 491 were preterm births (9.70%, 491/5 061); and in Group 3, there were 1 207 women, of which 161 were preterm births (13.34%, 161/1 207). Comparing the spontaneous preterm birth rates among the three groups, Group 1 was the lowest one and Group 3 was the highest one (3.72% vs 4.51% vs 5.88%); comparing the medical preterm birth rates among the three groups, Group 1 also was the lowest one and Group 3 also was the highest one (2.70% vs 5.20% vs 7.46%); the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The incidence of spontaneous and medical preterm birth according gestational weeks were compared among three groups and there were no significant differences ( P>0.05). Comparing and analyzing the high-risk factors of medical preterm birth, the incidence of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy and fetal distress in Group 1 were higher than those in Group 2 and 3; the incidence of placenta praevia were significantly higher in Group 2 and 3 than that in Group 1; the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Maternal age is a significant high-risk factor of both spontaneous preterm birth and medical preterm birth, and the risk of preterm birth increases with age. For medical preterm birth, compared with right-age pregnant women, placenta praevia is the high-risk factor for women in advanced maternal age(AMA), which have great effect on medical preterm birth rate of AMA.

Objective To assess the left ventricular systolic function in young strength male athletes by three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE).Methods A total of 45 young strength male athletes (athlete group) and 30 healthy young men (control group)were enrolled.Traditional echocardiography combined with 3D-STE were applied for all the subjects to obtain heart rate (HR),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD),the thickness of interventricular septum (IVS) and posterior wall thickness (PWT),relative wall thickness (RWT),left ventricular end-diastolic volume (EDV),endsystolic volume (ESV),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),stroke volume (SV),left ventricular mass (LVM),left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS),global circumferential strain (GCS),global area strain (GAS),global radial strain (GRS).Results There were a significant increase inLVEDD,IVS,PWT,RWT,EDV,ESV,SV,LVM and significant decrease in HR,GLS,GCS,GAS and GRS in athlete group compared with the control group (P ＜ 0.05).However,there was no significant difference in LVEF between two groups (P ＞0.05).Conclusions There are subclinical changes of left ventricular systolic functionin of young strength male athletes.3D-STE can accurately assess the changes,and provide reliable information for clinical assessment of athletes' heart function.

Objective:To observe and preliminarily explore the relationship between the area of active fundus lesions and aqueous cytomegalovirus (CMV)-DNA in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) with cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR).Methods:A retrospective study. From November 2019 to December 2020, the study population consisted of 22 AIDS patients (31 eyes) with active CMVR at the Beijing Ditan Hospital, Capital Medical University. All the patients were male. The age of the patients was 38.0±8.7 years. In total, 13 patients accepted highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). The median duration of treatment was 4 months. There were 9 cases that did not receive HAART. Ultra-wide-angle fundus imaging examination was performed using Optos P200T laser scanning ophthalmoscope. The software was used that comes with the device to measure the area of active lesions. Anterior chamber puncture was performed in all the affected eyes, 100 μl of aqueous humor was extracted, and the CMV-DNA load was quantitatively detected by polymerase chain reaction. At the same time, 19 cases of peripheral blood CD4 +T lymphocytes and CMV-DNA load were tested; 17 cases of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-RNA load were tested. The area of active lesions was used as the independent variable, and the CMV-DNA load of aqueous humor was used as the dependent variable to construct a linear regression function. Results:All eyes were active CMVR, with lesions ranging from 1 to 264 optic disc diameters, with a median of 43 optic disc diameters. Among 31 eyes, 30 eyes (96.8%, 30/31) had a median aqueous CMV-DNA load of 1.3×10 4 copies/ml, and one eye was negative for CMV-DNA in aqueous humor. In 19 patients who underwent peripheral blood CD4 +T lymphocyte detection, the median CD4 +T lymphocytes were 18 cells/μl; 4 cases (21.1%, 4/19) were detected with CMV-DNA load. In the 17 patients who underwent HIV-RNA load testing, the median HIV-RNA load was 4.1×10 4 copies/ml. The results of correlation analysis showed that the amount of CMV-DNA in aqueous humor was significantly correlated with the size of active fundus lesions ( r=0.601, P<0.001), and was correlated with CD4 + T lymphocytes, CMV-DNA load in blood, and HIV-RNA load. There was no significant correlation between the amounts ( r=0.125, 0.202, -0.096; P>0.05). The regression equation was CMV-DNA load in aqueous humor = 3.38 + 0.01 × active lesion area. Conclusion:The amount of CMV-DNA in the aqueous humor is significantly correlated with the area of fundus active lesions, which can reflect the activity of fundus lesions.
