Deubiquitinating enzymes, reversing protein ubiquitination, most of the researches focused on the ifeld of molecular biology. However, it have not yet attracted enough attention in translational medicine research. In fact, target proteins of deubiquitinating enzymes affect the tumor progression through various ways, for example, cell apoptosis and autophagy, the link between inlfammation and cancer, tumor hypoxia, signal transduction, cell cycle regulation and DNA damage. This paper reviewed the research progress on the relations between deubiquitinating enzymes and the correlated factors of tumor.

Objective : To apply analytical flow chart method to building a model for forecasting the risk of influenza and providing preventive measures. Methods : Surveillance data of influenza in Zhoushan from 2015 to 2018 was collected. Analytical flow chart method was used to evaluate the real-time risk of influenza,which were stratified by the seasonality of influenza,the percentage of influenza-like patients （ILI%） and whether there were effective prevention and treatment measures. The trend-line,warning line and action line of the influenza in 2018 were fit and the risk grades of influenza forecast were defined,which were compared with the actual risk grands during the first 20 weeks in 2018,to evaluate the accuracy of influenza forecast index. Results : Through the analysis of the flow chart,the influenza index was divided into six grades,very high risk（gradeⅠ,n=0）,high risk （gradeⅡ,n=14,ILI%=12.61%±7.54%）,relative high risk （gradeⅢ,n=16,ILI%=7.76%±3.53%）,general risk（gradeⅣ,n=57,ILI%=6.31%±2.26%）,relative low risk （gradeⅤ,n=32,ILI%=5.37%±1.96%）and low risk （grade Ⅵ,n=37,ILI%=4.30%±1.40%）. The concordance rate between the forecast risk and actual risk was 70.00% （14/20）. Conclusion This influenza forecasting model could well forecast the levels of influenza risk each week.

Objective To explore the association of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) efflux pump gene Rv1217c-Rv1218c and the drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.Methods A total of 34 Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates including 24 drug-resistance isolates which were resistant to riffampicin,isoniazid,streptomycin or ethambutol and resistant to at least one second-line antituberculosis drug,and 10 drug-sensitive isolates were involved in this study.The RNA of isolated strains was extracted and then reverse transcribed. Gene expression was performed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and data was analyzed by t test and Logistic regression analysis.Results The expressions of Rv1217c in rifampicin-resistant group (2.13 ± 1.89,t =3.44,P＜0.01),isoniazid-resistant group ( 1.84 ± 1.86,t =3.16,P＜ 0.05),streptomycin-resistant group ( 1.86 ±1.96,t=2.78,P＜0.05) and ethambutol-resistant groups (3.36±2.35,t=3.04,P＜0.05) were all higher than sensitive isolates (0.42 ± 0.31).The expressions of Rv1218c in rifampicin-resistant group (2.54±1.84,t=3.82,P＜0.01),isoniazid-resistant group (2.34± 1.84,t=3.72,P＜0.01),streptomycin-resistant group (2.15±1.86,t=3.01,P＜0.01) and ethambutol-resistant groups (3.78± 1.78,t=4.22,P＜0.01 ) were all higher than sensitive isolates (0.65 ± 0.42).The expressions of Rv1217c and Rv1218c in multidrug resistant group were 2.74±2.07 and 3.33± 1.77,respectively,which were both higher than polydrug resistant group (0.79 ± 0.47 and 1.03 ± 0.79,respectively; t =2.91,P＜0.05 ; t =3.84,P＜0.01,respectively).Logistic regression analysis found that high Rv1217c expression was positively correlated with rifampicin resistance and negatively correlated with isoniazid resistance (both P＜ 0.01 ),while high Rv1218c expression was negatively correlated with rifampicin resistance and positively correlated with isoniazid resistance (both P＜0.01 ).High expressions of two genes were both positively correlated with ethambutol resistance and multidrug resistance (both P＜0.01 ) and not statistically correlated with streptomycin resistance (P＞0.05).Conclusions The expressions of ABC efflux pump gene,Rv1217c-Rv1218c,are correlated with multiple drug resistance.The overexpression may contribute to the multidrug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Objective : To study the epidemiological characteristics of coronavirus disease 2019 （COVID-19） in Zhoushan, so as to provide reference for improving the prevention and control capability of COVID-19. Methods : All the confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Zhoushan, diagnosed according to China’s “COVID-19 diagnosis and treatment plan （fifth version） ” and reported from January 19 to February 17, 2020, were extracted from the infectious disease surveillance system. Data of general information, clinical characteristics, laboratory Results, transmission and detection routes were collected and analyzed. Results : By February 17, Ten confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Zhoushan had been reported, including 7 males and 3 females. They were all adults, with an average age of （50.90±15.00） years. Five cases were discharged. The incubation period ranged from 2 to 12 days, with a median of 5 days. The first symptoms were fever （8 cases）, cough （7 cases） and muscle pain （2 cases）. Chest computed tomographic （CT） scans showed ground glass opacities in the lungs of all the cases. Six cases had Wuhan related exposure. SARS-CoV-2 was tested positive in the sputum specimens or throat swabs of all the cases and the faeces of 4 cases. The last suspicious exposure of 5 cases occurred before, and that of another 5 cases occurred after the onset of clinical symptoms in the confirmed maternal cases. Three cases were found in active consultation after clinical symptoms, and another 7 cases were found in the monitoring of close contacts. Conclusions The 10 confirmed cases of COVID-19 reported in Zhoushan are all adults, and most have Wuhan related exposure. SARS-CoV-2 can be detected in the fecal samples, but the existence of fecal-oral transmission needs more research. SARS-CoV-2 has strong infectivity, and may also have infectivity before the onset of symptoms （at the end of incubation period）. Isolation and early detection of close contacts are conducive for early case-finding.

Objective:To analyse the association between triglyceride glucose (TyG) index and the number of coronary artery lesions in patients with stable coronary artery disease.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. Patients with stable coronary artery disease who were admitted to Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from 1st January 2019 to 30th April 2020 for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were selected. We collected general clinical information and laboratory results from the enrolled patients, then calculated the TyG index. We evaluated coronary artery lesions by coronary angiography and analysed the factors associated with the number of coronary artery lesion branches by the logistic regression model.Results:A total of 832 patients were included in this study, 641 (77.0%) were male, the age was (64.6±11.5) years. The mean TyG index was 8.78. Patients with the TyG index≥8.78 were included in the high TyG index group (411 patients), and those with the TyG index<8.78 were included in the low TyG index group (421 patients). Compared with the low TyG index group, the high TyG index group had the higher body mass index and diastolic blood pressure, more smokers and diabetes mellitus, younger age of onset of coronary heart disease (all P<0.05), and a lower proportion of patients using statins ( P=0.027). Compared with the low TyG index group, the high TyG index group had the higher levels of erythrocyte count, hemoglobin, white blood cell count, albumin, urea nitrogen, uric acid, fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, apolipoprotein E, and C-reactive protein (all P<0.05). However, the levels of high density lipoprotein, apolipoprotein A1 and apolipoprotein A were lower in the high TyG index group than those in the low TyG index group (all P<0.05). The number of coronary artery lesions in patients in the high TyG index group was 2.35±0.91, more than the low TyG index group 2.10±0.95 ( P<0.001).After adjusting for the other factors, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male, smoking history (smoking cessation or smoking), TyG index and troponin T levels were independently positively associated with the number of coronary artery lesions (all OR>1, P<0.05), while ApoA1 was independently negatively associated with the number of coronary artery lesions ( OR=0.140, P=0.007). Conclusions:TyG index is positively associated with the number of coronary artery lesions in patients with stable coronary artery disease.

Objective To understand the prevalence of birth defects, related diseases and mental status of women during pregnancy in Shaanxi province and to analyse the major risk factors on birth defects and congenital heart disease. Possible association between maternal diseases or mental status and the risk of birth defects, was also explored. Methods A cross-sectional design was used in this study and stratified multistage random sampling method was used. The whole survey was from Jury 2013 to November 2013. Logistic regression method was used to analyze the association between maternal diseases, mental status during pregnancy and birth defects. Results The overall prevalence of birth defects was 195.04 per 10000 in Shaanxi. Among the 29121 mothers participating in this study, 51.1% developed illness and 6.8%"changed their mental status during pregnancy. After adjusting all the confounding factors, results showed that, histories of cold", fever, and intrahepatic cholestasis were (OR=1.33, 95%CI:1.10-1.61, OR=1.54, 95%CI:1.09-2.16, and OR=32.77, 95%CI:4.08-263.04) respectively, during pregnancy that related to birth defects. Self-reported unstable mental status (OR=1.60, 95%CI: 1.19-2.15) and family friction (OR=2.07, 95%CI: 1.12-3.79) were both related to the birth rates. Histories of cold and fever (OR=1.59, 95%CI:1.28-1.98;OR=1.43, 95%CI:1.48-4.00), during early pregnancy, unstable mental status during mid-pregnant period (OR=1.52, 95%CI:1.05-2.19), unstable mental status during late-pregnant period (OR=1.63, 95%CI:1.05-2.19) and family friction during late-pregnant period (OR=2.89, 95%CI:1.16-7.20) were found to be related to birth defects. Compared with those without history of cold, those with the history of cold during first (OR=1.24, 95%CI: 1.02-1.52) and second stages (OR=2.06, 95%CI: 1.30-3.26) of pregnancy were more likely to bear fetus with birth defects. Compared with those without these histories, those with histories of fever (OR=1.49, 95%CI:1.04-2.13), emotional problem (OR=1.71, 95%CI:1.19-2.45) and related diseases (OR=2.67, 95%CI: 1.32-5.39) during the first period of pregnancy were more likely to bear fetus with birth defects. Conclusion The incidence of birth defects in Shaanxi was high. Histories of cold, fever, unstable mental status and family friction during pregnancy, seemed to have increased the risks of bearing child with birth defects.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of domestic 16-row and imported 8-row mobile CT in clinics.Methods:A total of 1469 patients accepted domestic 16-row mobile CT head scans (1604 times) from March 2017 to August 2018 in Bayi Brain Hospital Affiliated to 7 th Medical Center of General Hospital of People's Liberation Army and Langfang Aidebao Hospital; and 15510 patients accepted imported 8-row mobile CT head scans (24994 times) from January 2016 to August 2018 in Bayi Brain Hospital Affiliated to 7 th Medical Center of General Hospital of People's Liberation Army. All patients underwent horizontal plain and enhanced head scans, cerebral CT angiography (CTA), and helical 3D imaging; and the imaging quality, operating power consumption, computed tomography dose index volume (CTDIvol) and stability within scanning volume ranges under different scanning modes of the two CT scans were compared. Results:(1) Imaging quality: the horizontal scanning of domestic 16-row mobile CT could clearly display low-density tissues such as the eyeball, optic nerve, brain stem, sulcus and cerebral gyrus; the imaging quality of both CT scans in patients with traumatic subdural hematoma and ischemic stroke completely met the clinical diagnosis and treatment standards. (2) Operating power consumption: the per-hour operating power consumption of domestic 16-row mobile CT ([0.286±0.018] kW·h) was obviously lower than that of imported 8-row mobile CT ([0.485±0.028] kW·h). (3) Radiological hazard: the CTDIvol of the horizontal scanning volume range in domestic 16-row mobile CT ([36.270±0.281] mGy) was significantly lower than that in the imported 8-row mobile CT ([82.520±0.441] mGy, P<0.05); the CTDIvol of enhanced axis scan volume range in the domestic 16-row mobile CT ([36.270±0.335] mGy) was significantly lower than that in the imported 8-row mobile CT ([70.728±0.424] mGy, P<0.05); the CTDIvol in the volume of CTA imaging of domestic 16-row mobile CT ([20.600±0.087] mGy) was significantly lower than that in the imported 8-row mobile CT ([29.300±0.335] mGy, P<0.05). The domestic 16-row mobile CT was designed with shock absorbers and guides; domestic 16-row mobile CT had small load, a low center of gravity, and good stability as compared with imported 8-row mobile CT. Conclusion:In terms of head scanning applications, the imaging quality of domestic 16-row mobile CT and imported 8-row mobile CT is in full compliance with clinical diagnostic standards, but the energy consumption and radiation risk of domestic 16-row mobile CT is significantly lower than imported 8-row mobile CT, enjoying good stability as compared with imported 8-row mobile CT.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the risk factors for femoral neck fracture in elderly population. METHODS: A total of 124 elderly patients (≥60 years old) in hospital for trauma were enrolled, including 71 patients (57%) with femoral neck fracture and 53 non-femoral neck fracture patients (43%). All patients' age, gender, body mass index (BMI), bone mineral density (BMD), thigh length and average circumference were collected. Single factor analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to explore whether the above factors were risk factors for femoral neck fracture. RESULTS: Single factor analysis showed that the age, gender, BMI, BMD, thigh length, and average thigh circumference between the 2 groups were statistically different (all CONCLUSIONS Older age, female, lower BMI index (low body weight), lower BMD (osteoporosis), longer thigh length, and lower average circumference are risk factors for femoral neck fracture in the elderly population.
