BACKGROUND:Oxidative injury is considered to be one of the important factors of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.Superoxide dismutase 2(SOD2)is a key mitochondrial antioxidant molecule,and fenofibrate can regulate the expression of SOD2 by activating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α. OBJECTIVE:To explore whether the mechanism of fenofibrate in the treatment of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury depends on the expression of SOD2. METHODS:The TALENs system was used to construct SOD2 transgenic mice.The transgenic mice were genotyped by PCR and DNA sequencing techniques.The expression of SOD2 protein in transgenic mice was detected by western blot assay.Wild-type and SOD2 transgenic mice were randomly divided into four groups:wild-type control group(n=6),wild-type fenofibrate group(n=6),SOD2 transgenic control group(n=5)and SOD2 transgenic fenofibrate group(n=5).A mouse model of middle cerebral artery occlusion was prepared using the suture-occlusion method.After 90 minutes of ischemia,the thread was removed to reperfuse cerebral blood flow for 30 minutes.A cerebral blood flow monitor was used to monitor local cerebral blood flow.Brain tissue slices were taken for 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining to analyze the situation of cerebral infarction in each group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After PCR and DNA sequencing analysis,nine SOD2+/+ transgenic mice were successfully constructed.After cerebral ischemia-reperfusion,the wild-type fenofibrate group showed partial recovery of cerebral blood flow and significantly reduced cerebral infarction volume compared with the wild-type control group(P<0.001).There was no significant difference in cerebral blood flow and cerebral infarction volume between the SOD2 transgenic fenofibrate group and the SOD2 transgenic control group.The SOD2 transgenic control was superior to the wild-type control group in terms of improving cerebral blood flow and cerebral infarction(P<0.001).There were also no significant differences in cerebral blood flow and cerebral infarction volume between the wild-type fenofibrate group and the SOD2 transgenic control group and between the wild-type fenofibrate group and the SOD2 transgenic fenofibrate group.To conclude,the expression of SOD2 is one of the mechanisms of fenofibrate in the treatment of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of male with anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) autoantibody.Methods:The clinical data of 246 patients with DM and anti-MDA5 autoantibodies hospitalized by Jiangsu Myositis Cooperation Group from 2017 to 2020 were collected and retrospectively analyzed. Chi-square test was performed to compared between counting data groups; Quantitative data were expressed by M ( Q1, Q3), and rank sum test was used for comparison between groups; Single factor survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method and Log rank test; Cox regression analysis were used for multivariate survival analysis. Results:①The male group had a higher proportion of rash at the sun exposure area [67.1%(47/70) vs 52.8%(93/176), χ2=4.18, P=0.041] and V-sign [50.0%(35/70) vs 30.7%(54/176), χ2=8.09, P=0.004] than the female group. The male group had higher levels of creatine kinase [112(18, 981)U/L vs 57 (13.6, 1 433)U/L, Z=-3.50, P<0.001] and ferritin [1 500 (166, 32 716)ng/ml vs 569 (18, 14 839)ng/ml, Z=-5.85, P<0.001] than the female group. The proportion of ILD [40.0%(28/70) vs 59.7%(105/176), χ2=7.82, P=0.020] patients and the red blood cell sedimentation rate[31.0(4.0, 101.5)mm/1 h vs 43.4(5.0, 126.5)mm/1 h, Z=-2.22, P=0.026] in the male group was lower than that of the female group, but the proportion of rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (PR-ILD) [47.1%(33/70) vs 31.3%(55/176), χ2=5.51, P=0.019] was higher than that of the female group. ②In male patients with positive anti-MDA5 antibodies,the death group had a shorter course of disease[1.0(1.0, 3.0) month vs 2.5(0.5,84) month, Z=-3.07, P=0.002], the incidence of arthritis [16.7%(4/24) vs 42.2%(19/45), χ2=4.60, P=0.032] were low than those in survival group,while aspartate aminotransferase (AST)[64(22.1, 565)U/L vs 51(14,601)U/L, Z=-2.42, P=0.016], lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) [485(24,1 464)U/L vs 352(170, 1 213)U/L, Z=-3.38, P=0.001], C-reactive protein (CRP) [11.6(2.9, 61.7) mg/L vs 4.95(0.6, 86.4) mg/L, Z=-1.96, P=0.050], and ferritin levels [2 000(681, 7 676) vs 1 125 (166, 32 716)ng/ml, Z=-3.18, P=0.001] were higher than those in the survival group, and RP-ILD [95.8%(23/24) vs 22.2%(10/45), χ2=33.99, P<0.001] occurred at a significantly higher rate. ③Cox regression analysis indicated that the course of disease LDH level, and RP-ILD were related factors for the prognosis of male anti-MDA5 antibodies [ HR (95% CI)=0.203(0.077, 0.534), P=0.001; HR (95% CI)=1.002(1.001, 1.004), P=0.003; HR (95% CI)=95.674 (10.872, 841.904), P<0.001]. Conclusion:The clinical manifestations of male anti-MDA5 antibody-positive patients are different from those of female. The incidence of ILD is low, but the proportion of PR-ILD is high. The course of disease, serum LDH level, and RP-ILD are prognostic factors of male anti-MDA5 antibody-positive patients.

Objective: To understand the public health emergency response capacity in primary and secondary schools, and to explore the problems and challenges in the prevention and control of public health emergency in primary and secondary schools for specific strategies. Methods: By using the stratified group sampling method, a questionnaire survey on general situation, knowledge, attitude and training, as well as public health emergencies response capacity among 2 988 teachers or leaders responsible for school emergency response in primary and secondary schools from Beijing, Chongqing and Yunnan. Results: Participants varied on their positions, titles, educational background and knowledge accuracy. Higher knowledge accuracy was associated with higher educational background ( χ 2=50.73-203.36, P < 0.05 ). The implementation of regular public health emergency related programs was poorly conducted in high schools (50.0%). Urban schools (42.0%) had higher proportion of qualified health care professionals than rural schools (18.2%), and private schools (48.5%) was higher than public schools (24.7%). The primary challenges included the shortage of guidance from professionals and the lack of related testing equipment (84.91%, 74.03%). Conclusion Although the ability of emergency handling of public health emergencies in schools in the three regions is advancing with the times, there are still many deficiencies, some omissions in the mastery of knowledge. It is suggested to inerease pre service and special training of school health work CDC should strengthen technical guidance and work supervision of infectious disease management in schools.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis of a Chinese pedigree affected with chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHODS: A Chinese pedigree comprised of 10 individuals from four generation who had visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Dali University from August 15, 2018 to July 5, 2021 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the proband were collected, and a pedigree survey was conducted. The proband was subjected to whole exome sequencing (WES). Candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS: The proband, a 41-year-old female, has been diagnosed with chronic nephritis for more than 4 years. Routine urinary examination showed proteinuria and blood creatinine of 1 130 μmol/L. Renal biopsy has revealed hyperplastic glomerulonephritis, moderate tubulointerstitial disease and renal arteriosclerosis. Her elder sister, younger brother, younger sister and mother were all diagnosed with CKD stage 5. Except for her elder sister, all of them had deceased, whilst no abnormality was found in the remainders. Genetic testing revealed that the proband and four family members had harbored a c.467G>A missense variant of the PAX2 gene. The variant has been associated with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and classified as likely pathogenic (PS1+PP3+PP4) based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). CONCLUSION The c.167G＞A variant of the PAX2 gene probably underlay the CKD in this Chinese pedigree.
