2.Advancement of TREM-1
International Journal of Pediatrics 2012;39(2):191-195
Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 ( TREM-1 ) is one of immunoglobulin superfamilies found recently.TREM-1 is a crucial molecule for the triggering and amplification of inflammatory response and promote the reduction of in anti-inflammatory factor by crosslinking reaction with its ligand after being activated,or increasing the level of transcription factor.This study shows that TREM-1 may be claimed as a marker of infection,and the blockade of TREM-1 may be a new approach to inflammatory diseases.This study summarizes its structure,signal transduction,expression,accommodation and clinical application.
3.Current status of aflatoxin pollution and risk assessment of peanut and related products in China
Journal of Preventive Medicine 2021;33(12):1228-1230
Peanuts, corn and other food products are prone to aflatoxins (AF). AF was listed as a human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), especially aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), as it is considered the most prevalent and toxic. China is a big peanut producer, so carrying out pollution investigation and risk assessment in peanuts and their products is crucial to formulate prevention measures, protect export trade and maintain health. This paper summarizes the AF pollution of peanuts and their products in the Huang-Huai-Hai Basin, Yangtze River Basin, Southeast Coast and Northeast region of China from 2015 to 2021, and the application of dietary AF exposure risk assessment methods, providing a basis for strengthening the supervision of AF pollution in peanuts and their products, and ensuring food safety.
4.Detection and genotyping of human papilloma virus in children with condyloma acuminatum in Weifang city, Shandong province
Chinese Journal of Dermatology 2014;47(9):660-662
Objective To detect human papilloma virus (HPV) and to determine its genotype in children with condyloma acuminatum (CA) in Weifang city,Shandong province.Methods Swab specimens were collected from the surface of lesions of 24 children with CA.PCR/flow-through hybridization assay was performed to detect HPV and determine its genotypes in these specimens.Results Among the 24 specimens,95.8% (23/24) were positive for HPV.Of the HPV-positive specimens,87.0% (20/23) harbored single type of HPV,and 13.0% (3/23) multiple types of HPV.The most common genotype was HPV6(9/23),followed by HPV16 (6/23),HPV11 (5/23),HPV58 (3/23),HPV18 (2/23),and HPV53 (1/23).Conclusions HPV 6,16,11,58 and 18 prevail in children patients with CA in Weifang city,Shandong province.Additionally,the HPV genotypes in children patients are similar to those in their close contacts.

Objective To explore the relationship between benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)and obesity. Methods The 109 elder men were divided into two groups: BPH group (n=59) and non-BPH group (n= 50). The blood samples were collected for the detections of prostate specific antigen (PSA), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), fasting blood glucose (FBG), insulin,androgen, estrogen, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and dehydroepiandrosterone(DHEA).The anthropometric indexes including height, body weigh, waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), body mass index (BMI), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) were measured and calculated. The total prostate volume (TPV) were measured by transabdominal ultrasonography three times at least. Results The morbidity rate of BPH was significantly higher in obesity group and over weight group than in health control group (73.33% and 64.28% vs. 26. 67%, x2 = 13. 991 and 6. 836, both P<0. 002). So was in central obesity group versus in health control group (71.19% vs.36.00%, x2 =12. 156, P<0. 001). The waist-height index, waist circumference, body weight, BMI and hip circumference were significantly higher in BPH group than in non-BPH group [(0. 56±0. 05)vs. (0.52±0.06), (93. 6±8.8) cm vs. (87.0± 10. 1) cm; (72.6±9.7) kg vs. (64.5±9.3) kg;(25.7±3.4) kg/m2 vs. (23.1±2.9) kg/m2; (100.2±6.6) cm vs. (95.6±8. 1) cm; t=-3.3, -3. 65, -4.38, -4. 17 and -3.18, respectively, all P<0.01]. The TPV was higher in obesity groupthan in normal group [ (40.8± 23.5 ) ml vs. (20. 1 ± 6.1 ) ml, t = - 2.82, P< 0. 002] and obviously higher in central obesity group than in non-central obesity group [(42.8±25.6)ml vs. (26. 9±11.2)ml, t= -3. 93, P<0. 001]. The ratio of E2/TT and HOMA-IR were higher in central obesity group [(9. 06±4.36) and (2.81 ±2. 80)] than in non-central obesity group [(7. 38±3. 11) and (1. 55±0.76), t= -2.02 and -4.24, both P<0. 05]. Inversely, the TT and SHBG were lower in central obesity group than in non-central obesity group [(4.54 ± 1.54) nmol/L vs. (5.20 ± 1.54) nmol/L,(45.8± 17.24) nmol/L vs. (59.6 ± 26.09) nmol/L, t = 2.16 and 2.79, both P< 0. 05]. Logistic regression analysis showed that waist circumference was a major factor affecting TPV (x2= 19.52, P=0. 000). The annual growth rate of TPV was significantly higher in obesity group and central obesity group than in health control group [(7. 14±8. 09)ml vs. (1. 49±5.14)ml, (7. 96±13.81)mlvs. (1. 35±5.36)ml, t=-2.19 and -3.28, both P<0. 05]; The PSAD was significantly lower in central obesity group than in health control group [(0. 048±0. 036) vs. (0. 090±0. 093), t=2.02, P<0. 05], and lower in obesity group than in health control group [(0. 052 ±0. 039) vs. (0. 091 ±0. 080), t= 3. 13, P<0. 01]. Conclusions The occurrence of BPH is closely related to obesity,especially central obesity. Its mechanism may be related to sex hormone imbalance and the GH/IGF-1 axis disorders in obese patients.

Objective To explore a best therapy regimen for conservative treatment of ectopic pregnancy.Methods Total of 124 cases of ectopic pregnancy underwent medicine therapy. They were divided into 4 groups: A group with MTX orly,B group with mifepristone only,C group with MTX and mifepristone comblnation,and D group with combined MTX, mifepristone and Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Results The curative rate was 80.65% ,61.29% ,87.10% and 90.32% in group A,group B,group C,and group D. The curative rate of group D is higher than other groups (P<0.05, P<0.01 ). Conclusion Combined MTX, mifepfistone and TCM has better effect on ectopic pregnany and has less side effects.

Objective To evaluate the ability of force control of elbow and shoulder during isometric contraction in patients with chronic stroke. Methods From January to December, 2015, 22 chronic stroke patients and 12 healthy people were measured the maximum force dur-ing shoulder abduction/adduction and elbow flexion/extension with instrument for measuring force of upper extremity. The coefficient of variation was calculated. Results The maximum force was less in the patients than in the healthy controls (t>2.349, P<0.05), and the coeffi-cient of variation increased (t>1.974, P<0.05), except those of elbow extension. Conclusion The force measure and the coefficient of varia-tion can reflect the force control in shoulder and elbow motion in stroke patients.
