Background and purpose: One of the main mechanism of chemotherapy is inducing tuomr apoptosis. Molecular imaging can allow noninvasively and dynamically monitor tumor apoptosis in vivo, and help to drug screening and therapeutic evaluation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of 18F-SFB-Annexin B1 in detecting apoptosis at an early phase after chemotheraphy. Methods:Annexin B1 was labeled with 18F using SFB as a chelating agent. Tissue distribution of 18F-SFB-Annexin B1 was studied in healthy mice by the dissection method. W256 tumor-bearing rats were injected with 18F-SFB-Annexin B1 intravenously at 24 h after the treatment of cyclophosphamide (CTX 200 mg/kg) or saline. Then imaging was acquired at 1, 2, 3, and 4 h postinjection on a PET/CT, and the tumor-to-muscle ratio of SUVmax (T/M) and the AI from TUNEL testing were compared. Results: 18F-SFB-Annexin B1 had a radiochemical pruity (RCP)>95%. Biodistribution of this probe showed a predominant uptake in the kidney, then was liver, spleen, and myocardium, rapid clearance from blood and urinary was observed. The radios of T/M were 4.38±0.56, 6.75±1.16, 6.44±1.12, 4.81±0.17, respectively at 1, 2, 3, 4 h post injection of the chemotherapy group, much higher than that of the saline group (2.35±0.14, 2.99±0.55, 3.04±0.41, 2.33±0.47, respectively). The differences between the two groups were significant (F=23.790, 16.913, 14.046, 77.517, respectively, all P<0.05). TUNEL staining revealed that chemotherapy treatment significantly increased the percentage of apoptosis cells with an AI of (21.00±0.04)%in the chemotherapy group, higher than that in the saline group (8.58±0.01)%, the difference was significant (F=21.539, P<0.05). The radios of T/M were significantly correlated with the values of AI (r=0.91, P<0.05). Conclusion: 18F-SFB-Annexin B1 can be used to apoptosis imaging and early therapeutic evaluation in vivo because it can reflect apoptosis at an early stage after chemotheraphy.

Background and purpose: 18F-FDG has been considered to be of limited value for the detection of bladder lesions because of interference by the 18F-FDG excreted in urine. Delayed pelvic images with“diluted and iflled bladder”use a method of 18F-FDG PET/CT with delayed images after oral hydration so as to increase the detection rate of 18F-lfuorodeoxyglucose(FDG) PET/CT imaging for the lesions of bladder. Methods:48 patients with bladder lesions(35 patients with bladder primary tumor and 13 patients with metastatic tumor) underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT detection and were required oral hydration of 1200-1800 mL water, urination frequently, holding urine when the more scan began. Lesions conifrmed by histopathology, MRI, CT or clinical follow-up at least 1 year. Results:89%(43/48) of patients were obtained good clearance and the urine SUVmax declined from 33.14(9-66.80)to 3.23(1.35-5.65) signiifcantly and the statistical difference was signiifcant (t=8.703, P<0.01). The interval time between two scan was 2 h approximately. At the same time, the SUVmax of bladder lesion was 2.8-25.0. Detection sensitivity, speciifcity and accuracy were 90.47%(19/21), 81.48%(22/27)and 85.41%(41/48), respectively. Conclusion: 18F-FDG activity in the bladder signiifcantly decreased in most patients with“diluted and iflled bladder”. The PET/CT scan can highly detect lesions of bladder tissues. Our method with high accuracy and better endurance could be applied to detect the lesions in bladder.

Objective Pulmonary dysfunction is common in the obese patients after laparoscopic surgery. To reduce or avoid this complication caused by improper combination of mechanical ventilatory parameters,we conducted the following trial of 3 factors with 3 levels of mechanical ventilation in order to explore the optimal combination with low airway pressure. Methods Patients were randomly allocated into 9 groups (k=3,n=27) according to the "30≤BMI<40" obesity index (ASAⅠ-Ⅱ). Anesthesia machine parameters were set as follows: respiratory frequency (f), tidal volume (VT), respiratory ratio (I:E) as the three factors of A, B, C, with 3 levels of f=15, 12, 9 (bpm), VT=8, 10, 12 (mL/kg), I:E=1:2.5, 1:2.0, 1:1.5. By using L9(3~4)K=3 repeat orthogonal experimental design and analysis table, the variable factors that affect the respiratory index such as the end tidal carbon dioxide pressure (P_(ET)CO_2), peak airway pressure (PIP), mean airway pressure (P_(mean)), and the end of endogenous airway pressure (PEEPi) were analyzed. Results In this study, 27 cases undergoing laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia were allocated into 9 experimental groups. The hemodynamics of these patients was stable, SPO_2 was kept at 100 percent during the operation. The results of different combinations were described as follows: ①P_(ET)CO_2: f and VT with different level had great impact on P_(ET)CO_2 (P<0.01), I:E had no significant difference in three levels (P>0.05);② PIP: f had great effect on PIP (P<0.05);VT and I:E in three levels also had significant effect on PIP(P<0.01);③ P_(mean): all the ventilation parameters with different combination had significant effect on P_(mean)(P<0.01). Conclusions The best combination of respiratory parameters is A3B1C2, i.e., f=9 bpm, VT=8 mL/kg, and I:E=1:2.0, which indicates that neither small tidal volume and faster frequency, nor slow frequency large tidal volume is a good choice. In order to let obese patients under general anesthesia obtain the best lung protective effect by low airway pressure with good ventilation, it is worth noting that: ①I:E has a great effect on airway pressure (PIP, P_(mean)), which is important for lung protection;②I:E has the opposite effect on PIP and P_(mean).

Objective:
To analyze the epidemiological and spatial-temporal distribution of Brucellosis, epidemic encephalitis B and hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Gansu province during 2014-2018 so as to provide evidence for the prevention and control of those diseases.
Methods:
A database was established in Gansu province from 2014 to 2018, using the geographical information system. A spatial distribution map was drawn, with trend analysis and space-time clustering used to study the 3-dimention of the diseases, by using both ArcGIS 10.5 and SaTScan 9.6 softwares.
Results:
Results from the trend surface analysis showed that the incidence of Brucellosis decreased gradually from north to south parts while the U type curve could reflect the distribution from the east to the west areas. Incidence of epidemic encephalitis B decreased significantly from south to north areas in the province, with incidence higher in the eastern than in the mid-west region. Difference on the incidence of HFRS was not significantly visible in the eastern and western regions, while the incidence was slightly higher in the southern than the northern parts of the province. Spatial and space-time clustering did exist among the 3 diseases in Gansu from 2014 to 2018. The areas with clusters of Brucellosis appeared in the eastern parts during 2014-2015, including 19 counties. The areas with secondary clusters of Brucellosis were seen in the Hexi district, including 4 counties, during 2017-2018. The areas with high incidence of epidemic encephalitis B were clustered in the middle and southeast areas, including 32 counties, during 2017-2018. Areas with most clusters of HFRS appeared in Min county of Dingxi city in 2018, with the areas of secondary clusters in 8 counties of the eastern areas in 2018.
Conclusions
The overall incidence rates of the 3 natural focus diseases were in a upward trend and showing obvious characteristics on spatial clustering. According to the distributive characteristics, effective measures should be developed accordingly.

Objective To understand the situations of departments of intensive care units (ICUs) of different level hospitals in Guizhou Province, and to provide directions and evidences for improving quality control in critical care medicine.Methods A county-level hospital and a provincial-level hospital's comprehensive ICU in Guizhou Province were selected to record and analyze and compare the structural indicators, patient admission and transfer, disease distribution, ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP), intravascular catheter related blood stream infection (CRBSI) and catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) of the two hospitals' comprehensive ICU in 2017.Results The ICU of the People's Hospital of Suiyang County (county hospital) was found in 2012, and the ICU of the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University (provincial hospital) was found in 1994. Until 2017, there were 10 and 46 beds, 6 (all of them hold bachelor's degree) and 18 physicians (6 of them hold PhD, 5 of them hold master's degree, 7 of them hold bachelor's degree), 17 (4 of them hold bachelor's degree, 13 of them hold college degree or graduated from secondary school) and 69 nurses (2 of them hold master's degree, 53 of them hold bachelor's degree, 14 of them hold college degree or graduated from secondary school) in the two ICUs respectively, there were significant differences in the education background of the physicians and nurses between the two ICUs (bothP < 0.01). During 2017, 471 cases were admitted to the ICU of the county hospital while 1633 cases were admitted to the ICU of the provincial hospital. Compared with the ICU of the provincial hospital, the ratio of the patients with acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHE Ⅱ) ≥ 15 at admission was lower (74.8% vs. 85.1%,P < 0.01), the ratio of direct admission was higher (30.8% vs. 17.4%,P < 0.01), the ratio of the patients admitted to the ICU more than once was lower (0.8% vs. 5.0%,P < 0.01), the ratio of the patients whose the length of ICU stay less than 24 hours was higher (51.6% vs. 13.7%,P < 0.01), the ratio of the patients whose the length of ICU stay more than 28 days was lower (1.1% vs. 2.9%, P < 0.05), the ratio of the patients discharged against-advice (25.5% vs. 20.5%,P < 0.05) was higher, the ratio of the patients transferred to other hospitals was higher (5.1% vs. 0.3%,P < 0.05), and the ICU mortality was lower (4.0% vs. 13.9%,P < 0.01) in the ICU of the county hospital. The top three kinds of diseases treated in the ICU of the county hospital were brain injury (27.4%), trauma (19.1%) and toxication (6.8%); while in the ICU of the provincial hospital were brain injury (18.6%), sepsis (16.2%) and severe acute pancreatitis (4.8%). In addition, the incidences of VAP, CRBSI and CAUTI in the ICU of the county hospital were 10.0/1000 ventilator days, 1.4/1000 catheter days, 0.5/1000 catheter days; while in the ICU of the provincial hospital were 5.8/1000 ventilator days, 2.0/1000 catheter days, 3.7/1000 catheter days, respectively.Conclusions There are short of physicians and nurses in the ICU of the provincial and county hospitals in Guizhou Province, and the educational level of the medical staff in the ICU of the county hospital is relatively low. Moreover, there were significant differences in the admissions and treatments and the outcomes of the critically ill patients between the two ICUs. The characteristics of the ICUs of county hospitals should be fully considered when the quality control of critical care medicine and continuing medical education are done.

Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) can be expanded in vitro in different culture conditions, resulting in a spectrum of cell states with distinct properties. Understanding how PSCs transition from one state to another, ultimately leading to lineage-specific differentiation, is important for devel-opmental biology and regenerative medicine. Although there is significant information regarding gene expression changes controlling these transitions, less is known about post-translational modifi-cations of proteins. Protein crotonylation is a newly discovered post-translational modification where lysine residues are modified with a crotonyl group. Here, we employed affinity purification of crotonylated peptides and liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) to systematically profile protein crotonylation in mouse PSCs in different states includ-ing ground, metastable, and primed states, as well as metastable PSCs undergoing early pluripotency exit. We successfully identified 3628 high-confidence crotonylated sites in 1426 proteins. These crotonylated proteins are enriched for factors involved in functions/processes related to pluripotency such as RNA biogenesis, central carbon metabolism, and proteasome function. Moreover, we found that increasing the cellular levels of crotonyl-coenzyme A (crotonyl-CoA) through crotonic acid treatment promotes proteasome activity in metastable PSCs and delays their differentiation, consis-tent with previous observations showing that enhanced proteasome activity helps to sustain pluripo-tency. Our atlas of protein crotonylation will be valuable for further studies of pluripotency regulation and may also provide insights into the role of metabolism in other cell fate transitions.
