Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common neurodegenerative disorder, is characterized by memory loss and cognitive dysfunction. The accumulation of misfolded protein aggregates including amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides and microtubule associated protein tau (MAPT/tau) in neuronal cells are hallmarks of AD. So far, the exact underlying mechanisms for the aetiologies of AD have not been fully understood and the effective treatment for AD is limited. Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular catabolic process by which damaged cellular organelles and protein aggregates are degraded via lysosomes. Recently, there is accumulating evidence linking the impairment of the autophagy-lysosomal pathway with AD pathogenesis. Interestingly, the enhancement of autophagy to remove protein aggregates has been proposed as a promising therapeutic strategy for AD. Here, we first summarize the recent genetic, pathological and experimental studies regarding the impairment of the autophagy-lysosomal pathway in AD. We then describe the interplay between the autophagy-lysosomal pathway and two pathological proteins, Aβ and MAPT/tau, in AD. Finally, we discuss potential therapeutic strategies and small molecules that target the autophagy-lysosomal pathway for AD treatment both in animal models and in clinical trials. Overall, this article highlights the pivotal functions of the autophagy-lysosomal pathway in AD pathogenesis and potential druggable targets in the autophagy-lysosomal pathway for AD treatment.

The composition of serum is extremely complex,which complicates the discovery of new pharmaco-dynamic biomarkers via serum proteome for disease prediction and diagnosis.Recently,nanoparticles have been reported to efficiently reduce the proportion of high-abundance proteins and enrich low-abundance proteins in serum.Here,we synthesized a silica-coated iron oxide nanoparticle and devel-oped a highly efficient and reproducible protein corona(PC)-based proteomic analysis strategy to improve the range of serum proteomic analysis.We identified 1,070 proteins with a median coefficient of variation of 12.56%using PC-based proteomic analysis,which was twice the number of proteins iden-tified by direct digestion.There were also more biological processes enriched with these proteins.We applied this strategy to identify more pharmacodynamic biomarkers on collagen-induced arthritis(CIA)rat model treated with methotrexate(MTX).The bioinformatic results indicated that 485 differentially expressed proteins(DEPs)were found in CIA rats,of which 323 DEPs recovered to near normal levels after treatment with MTX.This strategy can not only help enhance our understanding of the mechanisms of disease and drug action through serum proteomics studies,but also provide more pharmacodynamic biomarkers for disease prediction,diagnosis,and treatment.

Objective:To explore the method and effect of endovascular treatment to innominate artery stenosis or occlusion.Methods:The data of 11 patients with stenosis or occlusion of innominate artery from January 2014 to November 2019 at Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University were collected. All patients received endovascular treatment. We summarized the changes of clinical symptoms, surgical methods, perioperative complications, stent patency, and analyzed the changes in systolic blood pressure and peak blood flow velocity on the involving side.Results:All 11 patients underwent endovascular treatment. The surgical technique success rate was 100%. All patients were followed up. The follow-up time was 4-69 months, with an average of (30.1±23.4)months. 2 patients used cerebral umbrella during the operation. 1 patient was performed ipsilateral carotid endarterectomy, 1 patient underwent contralateral carotid stent implantation, 1 patient was diagnosed as severe stenosis of the innominate artery and left common carotid artery, and an innominate artery stent implantation was performed at one stage, left common carotid artery stent implantation was performed after half a year. We done operation from the femoral artery puncture approach (6 patients), brachial artery puncture approach (2 patients), axillary artery and femoral artery puncture approach (1 patients), and right common carotid artery and the femoral artery puncture approach (2 patients). 3 patients had in-stent restenosis at 6, 7and 12 months after stenting, respectively. 1 patient underwent balloon dilatation, and 2 patients underwent re-stent implantation. We have not do further intervention to 1 case of in-stent occlusion occurred 14 months after the stenting, for the clinical symptoms did not improve significantly. The clinical re-intervention rate in this group was 3/11, and the primary patency rate was 7/11. The secondary patency rate was 10/11. The symptoms of 10 patients were relieved and the weakness of right upper extremity was not significantly changed in 1 patient. No puncture point complications occurred in all patients, and no cerebral infarction occurred during the perioperative period. There were statistically significant differences in systolic blood pressure, blood pressure difference and peak blood flow velocity before and after the operation ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Endovascular treatment of innominate arterial stenosis or occlusion was safe and effective, and the appropriate surgical approach and plan should be selected according to the lesion characteristics and the whole body conditions.

Objective To investigate the distribution of integrons in clinical isolates of carbapen-em-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and their relationships to bacterial resistance to antimicrobial agents.Methods A total of 115 carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strains were isolated from clinical samples of patients from January to October, 2017. Phoenix 100 automatic microbiological analyzer was used for antimicrobial sensitivity analysis. Classes 1 and 2 integrase genes and carbapenemase-encoding genes, bla IMP , blaVIM , blaKPC , blaNDM and blaOXA-23 , were screened by PCR. The variable regions of integrons were amplified by long fragment PCR. The types of promoters and gene cassette arrays of variable regions were de-termined by sequencing and overlap PCR. Relationships between integrons and antimicrobial resistance were analyzed. Results The 115 isolates of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii were resistant to most commonly used antimicrobial agents, but sensitive to polymyxin E. All of the isolates carried blaOXA-23 gene and none of them were positive for blaIMP , blaVIM , blaKPC or blaNDM gene. Class 1 integrase gene intI1 was de-tected in 40 isolates (34. 8% ), while class 2 integrase gene intI2 was not detected. Two gene cassette ar-rays of variable regions, aacA4-catB8-aadA1 (39 isolates) and aacC1-gacP-gacQ-aadA1a (23 isolates), were detected in intI1-positive isolates. Twenty-two isolates carried both aacA4-catB8-aadA1 and aacC1-gacP-gacQ-aadA1a. The upstream promoters of the variable regions were relatively strong promoters, PcH2 and PcS. The gene cassettes of the variable regions endowed bacteria with resistance to chloramphenicol and aminoglycoside antibiotics. The resistance rate of class 1 integron-positive isolates to compound sulfamethox-azole was higher than that of negative strains. However, their resistance rate to ampicillin/sulbactam was lower than that of negative strains. Conclusions Antimicrobial resistance in carbapenem-resistant Acineto-bacter baumannii was serious. Carbapenem resistance was associated with blaOXA-23 gene. The types of pro-moters of variable regions in class 1 integrons were all relatively strong promoters. Class 1 integrons were closely related to sulfonamides resistance.

Objective To investigate the status quo and influencing factors of occupational identification and turnover intention among pediatric nurses in Tai'an,and analyze the correlation between them, and provide theoretical basis for stabilizing the pediatric nursing team. Methods A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted among 442 pediatric nurses from 6 hospitals in Tai'an by means of occupational identity rating scale and turnover intention scale. Results The total score of professional identity was (97.45 ± 16.37) points; there was no very low turnover intention individual; the rate of the relative lower turnover intention was 17.87%(79/442); the rate of relative higher turnover intention was 52.26%(231/442); the rate of the very higher turnover intention was 29.86%(132/442). Career identity and dimensions were negatively related to turnover intention(r=-0.476--0.136,P<0.01). Conclusions Occupational identification of pediatric nurses in Tai'an is at a moderate level and the intention to quit is strong.The higher the occupational identification is,the lower the turnover intention of pediatric nurses in Tai'an, therefore, the nursing managers should pay attention to improve the professional identity of pediatric nurses and lower their turnover intention so as to achieve the goal of stabilizing the pediatric nursing team.

Objective:
To analyze the etiology and epidemiological characteristics of influenza in Wenzhou from 2009 to 2014, so as to provide the scientific basis for control and prevention of influenza.
Methods:
Throat swab specimens of influenza like illness (ILI) were collected from national influenza surveillance sentinel hospitals for nucleic acid detection with real-time PCR and virus isolation, culture and sequencing, and the results were analyzed with statistical methods.
Results:
During the 8 years, a total of 10 577 089 cases from outpatient and emergency department were monitored in sentinel hospitals. There were 337 896 ILI cases with an average ILI treatment rate of 3.19%. A total of 4 046 ILI samples were detected in children, 511 were positive for influenza, the positive rate was 12.63%. Among the detected influenza types, type B had the highest proportion, followed by H3N2. Among the 6 age groups, the number of flu patients was the highest in 0-3 years old group, the positive rate in 10-12 years old group was the highest (35.03%). There were 28 and 45 amino acid sequence mutations of HA fragment in influenza A and B, respectively, which included multiple mutation of 391 and 145 amino acids. The phylogenetic analysis showed that the strains of type B were different in different years, and Yamagata evolved into Y1 and Y2 two branches.
Conclusions
The prevalence peaks of influenza in children occurred in winter and spring in Wenzhou city, accompanied by small peaks in summer. Three subtypes of serotypes B, H3N2 and A(H1N1) dominated alternatively in Wenzhou during the 8 years. We should focus on strengthening the prevention and control of influenza in preschool children and primary and secondary school students.
