Objective:To explore the impact of urinary iodine concentration (UIC) on response to 131I treatment in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) patients with different risk stratifications. Methods:A total of 181 patients with DTC (75 males, 106 females, age: (44.1±12.5) years), who received the first 131I treatment in Tianjin Medical University General Hospital between January 2018 and February 2019, were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into low- to intermediate-risk and high-risk groups. The treatment response was categorized into excellent response (ER) and non-excellent response (non-ER). Factors being evaluated including age, sex, preablative stimulated thyroglobulin (ps-Tg), UIC, etc. Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test and logistic regression analysis were used for data analysis. Results:The UIC and ps-Tg in the low- to intermediate-risk group ( n=113) was 111.60(55.80, 204.65) μg/L and 2.08(0.63, 4.91) μg/L, respectively. Compared with the ER subgroup ( n=86), non-ER subgroup ( n=27) had higher UIC and ps-Tg level ( z values: -2.585, -4.511, both P<0.05). In the high-risk group ( n=68), UIC was 115.40(61.23, 167.28) μg/L and ps-Tg was 16.65(4.52, 43.45) μg/L. Compared with the ER subgroup ( n=20), non-ER subgroup ( n=48) had higher ps-Tg level ( z=-4.677, P<0.01), while the UIC was not significantly different between ER and non-ER subgroups ( z=-0.013, P>0.05). The multivariate logistic analysis indicated the ps-Tg level was the significant variable for non-ER in low- to intermediate-risk group (odds ratio( OR)=6.157(95% CI: 1.046-36.227); OR=22.965(95% CI: 3.591-146.857), both P<0.05) and high-risk group ( OR=9.696 (95% CI: 1.379-68.169), P<0.05); a high UIC could be an indicator of non-ER only in the low- to intermediate-risk group ( OR=3.715(95% CI: 1.201-11.488), P<0.05). Conclusions:The non-ER is associated with UIC in the low- to intermediate-risk group; however, UIC does not affect the non-ER in the high-risk group. Higher ps-Tg level is associated with non-ER in patients with low- to intermediate-risk and high-risk DTC.

Objective: To learn the status and influencing factors of development among infants at ages of 0 to 36 months in Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou City, so as to provide the reference for promoting healthy development of infants. Methods: Infants at ages of 0-36 months who underwent physical examination in Child Health Clinic of Xiaoshan District Community Health Service Center were selected in 2022. General data of infants and their mothers were collected through questionnaires, and the development status of infants was screened by Age and Stages Questionnaire (third edition). Factors affecting the development status were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 2 519 infants were investigated, including 1 339 males (53.16%) and 1 180 females (46.84%). There were 608 infants with abnormal development of at least one functional area of communication (CM), gross motor (GM), fine motor (FM), problems solving (CG) and personal-social (PS). The abnormal rate was 24.14%, and the abnormal rates of the above functional areas were 9.77%, 6.59%, 7.98%, 6.39% and 9.33%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender (male, OR=1.563, 95%CI: 1.191-2.052), mother's childbearing age (≥35 years, OR=1.411, 95%CI: 1.001-1.988), mother's educational level (lower than junior college, OR=1.460, 95%CI: 1.116-1.912) were factors affecting abnormal development of CM; preterm birth (OR=2.323, 95%CI: 1.315-4.103) was factors affecting abnormal development of GM; gender (male, OR=1.654, 95%CI: 1.225-2.232) was factors affecting abnormal development of FM; gender (male, OR=1.511, 95%CI: 1.086-2.102) and mode of delivery (cesarean section, OR=1.460, 95%CI: 1.060-2.010) were factors affecting abnormal development of CG; gender (male, OR=1.340, 95%CI: 1.019-1.763) and birth weight (low birth weight, OR=1.985, 95%CI: 1.149-3.432) were factors affecting abnormal development of PS. Conclusions The rate of abnormal development among infants at ages of 0 to 36 months in Xiaoshan District is 24.14%. Gender, preterm birth, mode of delivery, birth weight, mother's childbearing age and mother's educational level could affect the development status of infants.

Objective To assess the characteristics of brain glucose metabolism in patients with early Parkinson's disease (PD) accompanied by visuospatial working memory impairment using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET imaging.Methods Between January 2015 and March 2017,early PD patients with visuospatial working memory impairment (14 males,6 females,age:(55.7±6.7) years),early PD patients without visuospatial working memory impairment (13 males,7 females,age:(55.7±8.5) years) and healthy controls (14 males,6 females,age:(54.6±6.4) years) were included.Resting-state 18F-FDG PET was performed to obtain the brain glucose metabolism,Subsequently,statistical parametric mapping (SPM) was used to compare the brain glucose metabolic changes among different groups.Results Compared with the control group,hypermetabolism was observed in putamen,globus pallidus,thalamus,pons,cerebellum and primary motor cortex and hypometabolism was found in part of the occipital and temporal lobe in the groups ofearly PD (Zmax values:3.19-6.86,t values:2.11-9.96,all P＜0.001).The PD group with visuospatial working memory impairment had hypometabolism regions in bilateral lateral prefrontal cortex and posterior parietal cortex compared with the group without visuospatial working memory impairment.Conclusion Abnormal metabolism of glucose in visual processing channels of brain in early PD patients may be one of the causes of visuospatial working memory impairment.

Objective: To compare the ablation efficacy and therapy response with 1.1 GBq and 3.7 GBq ¹³¹I in postoperative patients with low- and intermediate-risk differentiated thyroid carcinoma(DTC). Methods: A total of 190 patients (43 males, 147 females, age: (45.8±11.1)years) were enrolled from July 2016 to July 2017. Among them, 96 patients received 1.1 GBq ¹³¹I and 94 were given 3.7 GBq ¹³¹I. Diagnostic whole-body scan was performed 6 months after ¹³¹I ablation for treatment response evaluation, and the successful rate of ¹³¹I ablation was calculated. χ² test or Fisher′s exact test was used for data analysis. The cut-off value of ⁹⁹Tc^m-pertechnetate uptake for predicting the successful rate of remnant thyroid ablation in 1.1 GBq group was determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results: The successful ablation rates in 1.1 GBq and 3.7 GBq groups were 79.2%(76/96) and 81.9%(77/94), respectively (χ²=0.229, P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the therapy response between the two groups (χ²=1.371, P>0.05). The successful ablation rate in 3.7 GBq group was higher than that in 1.1 GBq group for patients with stage Ⅲ (5/6 vs 1/7, P=0.029). Moreover, for patients with 5 μg/Lvs 10/13, P=0.038). ROC curve analysis showed the cut-off value of ⁹⁹Tc^m-pertechnetate uptake for prediction of the successful ablation rate in 1.1 GBq group was 0.061 5. Conclusion The low- and intermediate-risk DTC patients with stage Ⅲ disease, 5 μg/L99Tc^m-pertechnetate uptake of remnant thyroid should be given 3.7 GBq other than 1.1 GBq ¹³¹I to obtain a better ablation efficacy.

LIN28 is an RNA binding protein with important roles in early embryo development, stem cell differentiation/reprogramming, tumorigenesis and metabolism. Previous studies have focused mainly on its role in the cytosol where it interacts with Let-7 microRNA precursors or mRNAs, and few have addressed LIN28's role within the nucleus. Here, we show that LIN28 displays dynamic temporal and spatial expression during murine embryo development. Maternal LIN28 expression drops upon exit from the 2-cell stage, and zygotic LIN28 protein is induced at the forming nucleolus during 4-cell to blastocyst stage development, to become dominantly expressed in the cytosol after implantation. In cultured pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), loss of LIN28 led to nucleolar stress and activation of a 2-cell/4-cell-like transcriptional program characterized by the expression of endogenous retrovirus genes. Mechanistically, LIN28 binds to small nucleolar RNAs and rRNA to maintain nucleolar integrity, and its loss leads to nucleolar phase separation defects, ribosomal stress and activation of P53 which in turn binds to and activates 2C transcription factor Dux. LIN28 also resides in a complex containing the nucleolar factor Nucleolin (NCL) and the transcriptional repressor TRIM28, and LIN28 loss leads to reduced occupancy of the NCL/TRIM28 complex on the Dux and rDNA loci, and thus de-repressed Dux and reduced rRNA expression. Lin28 knockout cells with nucleolar stress are more likely to assume a slowly cycling, translationally inert and anabolically inactive state, which is a part of previously unappreciated 2C-like transcriptional program. These findings elucidate novel roles for nucleolar LIN28 in PSCs, and a new mechanism linking 2C program and nucleolar functions in PSCs and early embryo development.
