Objective To explore the variation of E-index and M-index of rabbits with acute pulmonary embolism (APE) under the status of pulmonary hypertension (PHT). Methods Rabbit models of APE with PHT were established. A series of parameters [including peak early diastolic mitral inflow velocity (EM), peak late diastolic mitral inflow velocity (AM) and so on] were obtained with routine echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI);and then E-index, M-index were calculated. The parameters before and after APE were compared. Results Twenty-three rabbit models with APE were successfully established, but 3 with atrial fibrillation were excluded. After APE, pulmonary artery pressure increased significantly, EM decreased observably, whereas right ventricular myocardial performance index (RVMPI) increased more evidently than left ventricular myocardial performance index (LVMPI) (P<0.01) did and E-index decreased and M-index increased remarkably. Conclusion Changes of E-index and M-index may provide reference for quantitative assessment of early APE.

Objective To study the changes of hippocampal caspase-3 and PSD-95 expression levels in the mice exposed to ketamine 30 mg/(kg·d)for three months. Methods Forty C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into two groups,and the chronic ketamine addiction model was established by giving mice a three month course of daily intraperitoneal injections of ketamine. Immunohistochemical study and Western blot-ting were applied to observe the expression of caspase-3 and PSD-95 protein. Results There were more expression of caspase-3 and less of PSD-95 in ketamine group as detected by immuohistochemistry. Western blotting results showed caspase-3 active fragment level significantly increased com-pared to saline group,but PSD-95 protein level was decreased. Conclusion The increased level of caspase-3 protein and reduced expression of PSD-95 are observed after long-term ketamine administration. These findings may provide an evidence for the neurotoxicity in mouse hippocampus of chronic ketamine addition as a recreational drug.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravesical instillation with Sufuning (SFN) lotion for prevention of postoperative recurrence of bladder cancer. Methods A total of 240 bladder cancer patients who were diagnosed as bladder cancer and accepted trans-urethral resection of bladder tumor from January 2010 to June 2016 in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital were randomly divided into the experimental group (120 cases) and the control group (120 cases) according to the envelope method. The patients in the experimental group were treated with SFN lotion for immediate intravesical instillation(250 mg for once), and the patients in the control group were treated with pirarubicin (THP) for immediate intravesical instillation (30 mg for once). The patients of two groups were treated with intravesical chemotherapy once a week for 8 times, and the chemotherapy was performed once a month for 1 year. The recurrence rate, progression-free survival (PFS) rate, overall survival (OS) rate and recent side effects were compared between the two groups. Results The patients were followed up for 6 to 60 months. The median follow-up time was 36.5 months.In the experimental group,6 patients were lost and 8 patients were lost in the control group.The experimental group, the total recurrence rate was 26.3 % (30/114). The control group, the overall recurrence rate was 25.0 % (28/112) (χ2= 0.142, P = 0.781). Five years of PFS rate in the experimental group and the control group was 73.7 % (84/114) and 75.0 % (84/112) respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (χ2= 2.011, P= 0.615). Five years of OS rate in the experimental group and the control group was 95.6 % and 92.9 % respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (χ 2= 1.611, P= 0.425). The major side effects included chemical cystitis and hematuria. The incidence of chemical cystitis and hematuria in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group(χ2=5.991,P=0.018;χ2=4.925,P=0.036).There was a statistically significant difference of the hematological side effects (blood routine changes) between the two groups (χ 2= 4.891, P= 0.032). Conclusion It is safe and effective for intravesical instillation of SFN lotion to prevent the recurrence of bladder cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effects of docetaxel for postoperative chemotherapy of advanced gastric cancer.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 311 patients with advanced gastric cancer who were admitted to Lanzhou University Second Hospital from January 2013 to December 2018 were collected. There were 224 males and 87 females, aged from 26 to 82 years, with a median age of 58 years. Of 311 patients, 204 cases undergoing chemotherapy with the FOLFOX regimen (oxaliplatin, calcium folinate, 5-fluorouracil) were allocated into the FOLFOX group, and 107 cases undergoing chemotherapy with the FLOT regimen (docetaxel, oxaliplatin, calcium folinate, 5-fluorouracil) were allocated into the FLOT group. Observation indicators: (1) the propensity score matching conditions and comparison of general data between the two groups of patients after matching; (2) follow-up; (3) analysis of survival factors; (4) subgroup analysis; (5) adverse reactions. Follow-up was performed using a combination of outpatient examination, hospitalization review and telephone interview to detect situations of patients chemotherapy, postoperative survival, tumor recurrence and metastasis up to February 2019. The propensity score matching was realized using the nearest neighbor method with 1: 1 ratio and caliper setting as 0.02. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability method. Rank data was analyzed using non parametric Rank sum test. The survival curve and rate were respectively drawn and calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The survival analysis was done using the Log-rank test. Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were conducted using the COX regression model. Subgroup analysis was done using interaction test. Results:(1) The propensity score matching conditions and comparison of general data between the two groups of patients after matching: 198 of 311 patients had successful matching, including 99 in each group. Cases with tumor differentiated as poorly differentiation or well differentiation, cases with CA19-9 <27 U/mL or ≥27 U/mL, cases with CA125 <35 U/mL or ≥35 U/mL before propensity score matching were 109, 95, 156, 48, 186, 18 in the FOLFOX group, and 42, 65, 93, 14, 104, 3 in the FLOT group, respectively, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( χ2=5.649, 4.798, 4.039, P<0.05). After propensity score matching, the above indicators were 44, 55, 85, 14, 96, 3 in the FOLFOX group, and 42, 57, 85, 14, 96, 3 in the FLOT group, respectively, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( χ2=0.082, 0.000, 0.000, P>0.05). (2) Follow-up: 198 patients of the two groups after matching were followed up for 2 to 69 months, with a median follow-up time of 38 months. During the follow-up, 92 cases survived without tumor, 2 cases underwent tumor recurrence or metastasis, and 104 cases died including 103 with tumor related death and 1 case with non-tumor related death. The courses of chemotherapy were 5.6±0.7 and 5.4±0.8 for the FOLFOX group and FLOT group, respectively, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( t=1.651, P>0.05). The 1, 3, and 5-year cumulative survival rates of patients were 72.2%, 31.5%, 27.7% and 83.2%, 42.8%, 38.2% for the FOLFOX group and FLOT group, respectively. The median overall survival time were 21 months and 34 months for the FOLFOX group and FLOT group, respectively, showing significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.473, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of survival factors: results of univariate analysis showed that cases undergoing chemotherapy with the FLOT regimen, cases with tumor as diffuse type of Lauren classification, cases with tumor as mixed type of Lauren classification, cases with tumor differentiated as well differentiation, cases with tumor diameter≥5 cm, cases with CA19-9≥27 U/mL, cases with carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)≥3.4 μg/L, cases with tumor as T4 stage of T staging, cases with tumor as N2 stage of N staging, cases with tumor as N3 stage of N staging, cases undergoing distal gastrectomy and cases undergoing total gastrectomy were related factors influencing postoperative survival of patients ( hazard ratio=0.659, 1.617, 1.798, 0.672, 1.726, 1.655, 1.942, 2.036, 2.536, 4.085, 1.810, 2.310, 95% confidence interval: 0.444-0.978, 1.024-2.556, 1.105-2.926, 0.457-0.990, 1.159-2.569, 1.006-2.723, 1.295-2.912, 1.190-3.484, 1.409-4.564, 2.491-6.697, 1.020-3.211, 1.261-4.233, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that cases undergoing chemotherapy with the FLOT regimen, cases with CEA≥3.4 μg/L, cases with tumor as N2 stage of N staging and cases with tumor as N3 stage of N staging were independent risk factors influencing postoperative survival of patients ( hazard ratio=0.622, 1.732, 2.217, 4.039, 95% confidence interval: 0.418-0.926, 1.124-2.670, 1.200-4.097, 2.448-6.662, P<0.05). (4) Subgroup analysis: results of subgroup analysis showed that of the different subgroups using gender, age, tumor Lauren classification, tumor differentiation degree, tumor location, tumor diameter, tumor markers, tumor T staging, tumor N staging and surgical procedures as subgrouping index, the efficacy difference between the FLOT group and the FOLFOX group was the same (interaction P>0.05). (5) Adverse reactions: the incidence of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ adverse reactions of leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, nausea, vomiting and liver and kidney dysfunction were 11.1%(11/99), 2.0%(2/99), 3.0%(3/99), 12.1%(12/99), 4.0%(4/99), 1.0%(1/99) and 34.3%(34/99), 1.0%(1/99), 9.1%(9/99), 24.2%(24/99), 4.0%(4/99), 0 in the FOLFOX group and the FLOT group, respectively. There were significant differences of the incidence of leukopenia and nausea between the two groups ( χ2=15.213, 4.889, P<0.05). There was no significant difference of the incidence of thrombocytopenia between the two groups ( χ2=3.194, P>0.05) and there was no significant difference of the incidence of anemia, vomiting and liver and kidney dysfunction between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no patient in the two group withdrawal from chemotherapy as no tolerance to toxic reactions. All patients were treated with glucocorticoids, proton pump inhibitors and serotonin receptor antagonists during chemotherapy. Patients undergoing leukopenia were treated with granulocyte stimulating factor. Conclusions:Compared with FOLFOX regimen, FLOT regimen which adds docetaxel significantly prolongs the postoperative median overall survival time of patients with advanced gastric cancer. However, FLOT regimen increases the incidence of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ adverse reactions of leukopenia and nausea.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2022;43(12):1791-1795
Objective:
To analyze the usage and influencing factors of quantified recipes in schools in the pilot areas of the Nutrition Improvement Program for Rural Compulsory Education Students (NIPRCES), and to provide references for student meal quality improvement.
Methods:
In 726 national pilot counties in 22 provinces where the NIPRCES was implemented, a total of 7 808 schools were included in the analysis as the survey objects in 2019. Data, including the usage of quantified recipes in schools and related factors, were collected through questionnaires. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of the schools use of quantified recipes.
Results:
Among the national pilot counties where the NIPRCES was implemented, 66.6 % of the monitored schools used quantified recipes, of which 69.7% of schools in the central region used quantified recipes, it was higher than that in the west region(65.2%) ( χ 2=15.13, P <0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that factors such as the schools in the central region, county based schools, the training frequency of canteen with 1-2 times per semester or once or more per month, regular training of nutrition knowledge, recipes provided by other departments, consideration of nutrition matching when formulating recipes, using catering software, providing local dietary allowances were positively correlated with the use of quantified recipes in schools( OR=1.31,0.72,1.44,1.73,1.75,3.20,2.15,2.72,1.17,P <0.05).
Conclusion
The proportion of using quantified recipes of schools in the NIPRCES area was relatively low, which might be affected by factors including the regional economic level, canteen training, and recipes sources. It is recommended to strengthen the construction of professional teams and canteen training. Schools need to be encouraged to use quantified recipes and promote school catering scientifically to improve healthy growth of students.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2022;43(11):1642-1646
Objective:
To analyze the status of parents sharing meal expenses in the national pilot areas of the Nutrition Improvement Program for Rural Compulsory Education Students (NIPRCES) and its influencing factors, so as to provide scientific data for promoting the proper implementation of the NIPRCES and the healthy development of students.
Methods:
In the 726 national pilot counties in 22 provinces where the NIPRCES was implemented, 8 109 primary and junior high schools were selected as the survey objects and included in the analysis according to the three feeding methods of canteen feeding, enterprise feeding and mixed feeding. Data such as the basic information of the schools and counties, and the status of parents sharing meal expenses were collected through questionnaires. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of parents sharing meal expenses.
Results:
In the national pilot areas of the NIPRCES, schools where parents shared meal costs accounted for 30.2% of all monitored schools in 2019. In central and western areas, the proportion of schools where parents shared meal costs were 51.5% and 20.3%, respectively. In schools where parents shared meal costs, no matter in primary school or junior high school, the difference in the amount of meal expenses shared by parents of students in middle and western schools was statistically significant ( χ 2= 181.78 , 89.54, P <0.01). Among 38.7% of the parents of primary school students in the central region shared meal expenses of ≥2 yuan, and 47.5% of the parents of primary school students in the western region. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the parents of schools in the central region, junior high schools or nine year system schools, canteen feeding or other feeding, large school size, the nutritious meal subsidy used for lunch, middle and high family income level, medium and low input level of the monitoring counties, monitoring counties with other nutrition public welfare projects and insufficient working funds share a higher proportion of meal expenses ( OR=3.22, 1.51, 1.36, 1.74, 3.74, 1.38, 11.58, 2.40, 3.15, 1.50, 2.12, 3.36, 1.34, P < 0.05).
Conclusion
The proportion of meals shared by parents of school students in the NIPRCES implementation area was relatively low, which may be affected by factors such as economic level, feeding mode, school scale, etc.

Objective:To explore the difference of the vessel and plaque characteristics, myocardial perfusion and cardiac function between patients with ischemia with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA) and obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD).Methods:From July 2021 to June 2022, 101 patients with angina were referred to dynamic computed tomography myocardial perfusion (CTP) and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and retrospectively included in our hospital. Based on the results of CTP and CCTA, patients were divided into INOCA (27 cases), moderate obstructive CAD (26 cases) and severe obstructive CAD (48 cases). The anatomical coronary artery stenosis, plaque characteristics and myocardial perfusion features of all patients were analyzed. Furthermore, left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS), global circumferential strain (GCS), and global radial strain (GRS) were obtained on full-phase reconstruction CCTA image by using Medis Suite 3.2 postprocessing software. Multigroup analysis used one way ANOVA or Kruskal Wallis H test. Results:Patients with INOCA were younger than patients with moderate and severe obstructive CAD ( P<0.001). INOCA patients (7.4%, 2/27) had lower rate of positive remodeling than both moderate (57.7%, 15/26, P<0.001) and severe obstructive CAD patients (33.3%, 16/48, P=0.017). The percentage of ischemic myocardium volume in patients with INOCA were similar with those in patients with severe CAD (all P>0.05), but significantly higher than those in patients with moderate CAD (all P<0.05). No significant difference in terms of GLS was detected between patients with INOCA [-17.4% (-21.6%, -11.6%)] and severe CAD [-17.6% (-21.9%, -14.8%), P=0.536], however, patients both with INOCA and severe CAD also had higher GLS than patients with moderate obstructive CAD [-22.3% (-29.8%, -19.0%), all P<0.05]. Conclusions:Based on"one-stop-shop"CTP combined with CCTA imaging, early cardiac functional changes including abnormal myocardial perfusion and myocardial strain in INOCA patients were similar to those in patients with severe obstructive CAD and more severe than those in patients with moderate obstructive CAD.
