Objective To construct a predictive model for the survival of transplant kidneys after kidney transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 366 kidney transplant recipients and donors were retrospectively analyzed, and the recipients were divided into low-risk group (n=101), medium-risk group (n=189), and high-risk group (n=76) based on the kidney donor profile index (KDPI). Each group was further divided into Remuzzi score ≤3 group and Remuzzi score >3 group based on time-zero biopsy Remuzzi scores. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the survival of transplant kidneys. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors affecting long-term survival after kidney transplantation. A predictive model for transplant kidney survival was established and a nomogram was drawn. The predictive performance of the model was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the curve (AUC). Results The median KDPI was 65%, and the median Remuzzi score was 3. The 5-year survival rate of transplant kidneys was 83.5%. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that in the KDPI medium-risk and KDPI high-risk groups, the subgroup with lower Remuzzi score had a higher survival rates of transplant kidneys than the subgroup with higher Remuzzi score. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that KDPI, Remuzzi score, and donor’s age were independent risk factors for transplant kidney loss (all P<0.05). The ROC curve showed that the AUC of the nomogram prediction model established based on independent risk factors for the 1, 3 and 5-year survival rates of transplant kidneys were 0.91, 0.93 and 0.94 for the training set, and 0.89, 0.85 and 0.88 for the validation set. Calibration curves shows good consistency between the training and validation sets of the model. Conclusions The nomogram predictive model based on KDPI, time-zero biopsy Remuzzi score and donor’s age has good predictive value for transplant kidney survival.

Objective:To investigate the related genes, signaling pathways and possible mechanisms of malignant transformation of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) immortalized cervical epithelial cell line H8.Methods:The malignant transformed H8 cell model was constructed, and the changes of cell invasion ability and cell migration ability of H8 cells after malignant transformation were detected by Transwell assay, and the changes of clone formation ability of H8 cells after malignant transformation were detected by plate clone formation assay. Total RNA was extracted from malignant transformed H8 cells and H8 cells, and the two groups of cells were sequenced by transcriptome using Illumina novaseq 6000 sequencing platform, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified and analyzed, and Gene Ontology (GO) function enrichment analysis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis and protein-protein interaction were performed.Results:The invasion ability, migration ability and clone formation ability of malignant transformed H8 cells significantly increased as compared to H8 cells. A total of 203 differentially expressed genes were identified in H8 cells before and after malignant transformation, of which 98 were up-regulated and 105 down-regulated. GO enrichment analysis showed that DEGs were mainly involved in biological processes such as cellular processes, biological regulation, and metabolic processes. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that DEGs were mainly enriched in alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolic pathway, glycine, serine and threonine metabolism pathway, p53 signaling pathway and TGF-β signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. PPI analysis screened 10 hub genes including DDIT3, TRIB3 and ASNS.Conclusions:Compared with H8 cells, malignant transformed H8 cells have a large number of differentially expressed genes and pathways at the transcriptional level, which could further provide new ideas for the mechanism of malignant transformation and carcinogenesis as well as finding new targets for the prevention of malignant transformation.

Objective:To investigate the psychology status and quality of life in patients with inflammatory bowel disease(IBD) in China, and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods:From September 2021 to May 2022, 42 hospitals in 22 provinces(autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government) in China, the clinical data of 2 478 IBD patients were collected, which included age, gender, weight, first visit or not, disease activity, disease course, main clinical manifestations(diarrhea, abdominal pain, hematochezia, extraintestinal manifestations), complications, treatment medication(5-aminosalicylic acid, glucocorticoids, immunosuppressive agents, and biological agents), and whether to have surgery. Anxiety, depression, sleep quality and quality of life of IBD patients were evaluated by generalized anxiety disorder-7 items, patient health questionnaire-9 items, Pittsburgh sleep quality index and inflammatory bowel disease questionnaire, and the related influencing factors were analyzed. Univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used for statistical analysis.Results:The average age of 2 478 IBD patients was 37.96 years old, and male counted for 62.43%(1 547/2 478). There were 61.82%(1 532/2 478) of the IBD patients in the active stage of disease, mostly mild or moderate(588 and 734 cases). There were 60.61%(1 502/2 478) of the IBD patients with different degrees of anxiety, 58.35%(1 446/2 478) of the IBD patients with different degrees of depression, and 48.87%(1 211/2 478) of the IBD patients had different degrees of sleep problems. The results of multiple linear regression analysis indicated that female, higher level of disease activity and longer disease course were independent risk factors of anxiety, depression and sleep quality in the IBD patients(unstandardized regression coefficient(95% confidence interval) 1.08(0.65 to 1.50), 0.45(0.23 to 0.68), 0.19(0.02 to 0.36), 0.83(0.33 to 1.32), 0.62(0.36 to 0.88), 0.28(0.08 to 0.47), 0.47(0.16 to 0.77), 0.39(0.23 to 0.55), 0.14(0.02 to 0.26); P<0.001, <0.001, =0.025 , =0.001, <0.001, =0.005, =0.003, <0.001, =0.027). The usage of biological agents was an independent protective factor of anxiety(unstandardized regression coefficient(95% confidence interval) -0.67(-1.17 to -0.17), P=0.008), and older age was an independent risk factor of sleep quality(unstandardized regression coefficient(95% confidence interval) 0.35(0.09 to 0.61), P=0.008). Higher level of disease activity, symptoms of diarrhea, abdominal pain, presence of extraintestinal manifestations, usage of 5-aminosalicylic acid and glucocorticoid, and with surgical treatment were independent risk factors of quality of life(unstandardized regression coefficient(95% confidence interval) -11.00(-12.24 to -9.76), -2.90(-5.26 to -0.55), -3.93(-6.25 to -1.61), -5.79(-9.87 to -1.71), -4.78(-7.79 to -1.76), -7.71(-11.07 to -4.35), -4.37(-8.00 to -0.73); P<0.001, =0.016, =0.001, =0.005 , =0.002, <0.001, =0.019), while the usage of biological agents was an independent protective factor of quality of life (unstandardized regression coefficient(95% confidence interval) 4.72(1.97 to 7.48), P=0.001). Conclusion:IBD patients generally have different degrees of anxiety, depression and sleep problems, which affect the quality of life of patients. Gender, disease activity and disease course are the influencing factors of mental disorders in IBD patients.

Objective:To understand the characteristics of the HIV-1 molecular networks in injected drug users (IDUs) in Guangzhou from 2008 to 2017, and provide reference for the prevention and control of AIDS in this population.Methods:The serum samples of newly diagnosed HIV-1 positive IDUs in Guangzhou from 2008 to 2017 were collected, HIV-1 RNA was extracted for pol gene amplification and sequencing. The molecular cluster in the phylogenetic tree was identified by Cluster Picker 1.2.3 for cluster analysis. TN93 model in HyPhy2.2.4 was used to calculate the gene distance between the cluster sequences. Software Cytoscape3.8.2 was used to visualize the molecular network, and χ2 test or exact probability method was used for cluster analysis and centrality analysis. Results:A total of 586 sequences were successfully amplified (73.9%, 586/793), and 80 molecular clusters were produced, with a clustering rate of 46.6% (273/586). In molecular clusters, the proportions of the strains from IDUs in Han ethnic group (48.4%, 260/537), IDUs who were local residents in Guangdong (52.7%, 146/277) and IDUs whose strain sequence subtype was CRF55_01B (93.3%, 14/15) were higher. In the molecular network, the degree range was 1-7, and nodes with degree ≥3 accounted for 12.8% (24/187), which was associated with another 81 nodes in the molecular network (43.3%, 81/187). The centrality analysis showed that the proportions of housework/unemployed with high degree centrality (19.0%, 19/100), high intermediary (22.0%, 22/100), and high proximity centrality (32.0%, 32/100) were higher in IDUs infected with HIV-1.Conclusion:The risk of HIV-1 clustering in IDUs in Guangzhou was high, suggesting that IDUs who were from both Guangdong and Guangxi and were house workers or unemployed should be viewed as the key targets, and precise intervention should be implemented to reduce the HIV-1 infection rate in this population.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of mindfulness training on the emotional regulation and resilience of college students.Methods:Eighty one college students were recruited and randomly divided into mindfulness training group and control group, of which 74 completed the study (36 in mindfulness training group and 38 in control group). Participants in mindfulness training group received an 8-week mindfulness training, while participants in control group received no intervention. Participants were assessed with the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ, measuring mindfulness level), Profile of Mood State (POMS, measuring emotion) and the Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescent(RSCA, measuring resilience) before and after intervention (4 and 8 weeks).Results:Before and after the intervention, the interaction effects of total score of five factors mindfulness, scores of observing, actaware, non-judging, total score of resilience, scores of goal planning, help-seeking and the fatigue score were significant(all P<0.05). There were significant differences in mindfulness level, mood state and resilience scores in mindfulness training group before and after intervention(all P<0.05). There were significant differences of scores of FFMQ , POMS and RSCA post-training compared with baseline( P<0.05). The total score of FFMQ was improved significantly after 4 weeks of intervention ((114.92±11.70) vs(110.36±11.24), P<0.05), while the scores of observing((26.19±5.21) vs(24.00±5.34)), describing((23.36±4.82) vs(21.19±4.76)), non-judging((23.75±4.20) vs(22.06±4.99)) and non-reacting((19.72±3.16) vs(18.58±3.61)) were improved significantly after 8 weeks of intervention. There were significant differences of the scores of fatigue, depression-dejection, panic, vigor-activity and total mood disturbance before and after the intervention in mindfulness training group (all P<0.05). The scores of fatigue((12.31±4.08) vs(13.39±5.12)), panic((12.08±3.57) vs(13.67±4.35)) and total mood disturbance((132.94±17.71) vs(145.75±22.68)) were reduced significantly after 8 weeks of intervention (all P<0.05), while the scores of vigor-activity were improved significantly after 8 weeks of intervention ((18.31±4.61) vs (15.39±4.99), P<0.01). The participants in mindfulness training group got significantly higher total score, scores of goal planning, help-seeking, and affect control of RSCA after intervention compared with baseline (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Mindfulness training can enhance the mindfulness level and resilience of college students, decrease negative affect such as fatigue, depression, panic, and increase positive affect such as activity.

Migraine is the most common type of primary headache with disabling brain dysfunction. The prevalence of the migraine in Chinese population is 9.3%, and the ratio of female to male is 3∶1, which seriously affect people′s quality of life. Depression is one of the most common psychiatric disorders in migraine comorbidity. Compared with non-migraine patients, the risk of depression comorbidity in migraine patients is more than 2.5 times higher. The frequency and severity of migraine are closely related to depressive symptoms. Depressive symptoms have different effects on headache-related pain signal transduction, which is susceptible to neuroendocrine network disorders in the process of transmission from thalamus to cortex. Neuroendocrine network plays an important role in the depression of migraine comorbidity. Therefore, exploring the pathogenesis of neuroendocrine network in comorbidity provides a theoretical basis for screening more suitable depressive drugs for migraine comorbidity.

Under these conditions, the extraction rate of lycopene reached 15.564 mg·100g-1. It was concluded that the extraction process of lycopene can provide experimental basis for further development and utilization of lycopene.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the trends of multiple births rates and their perinatal outcomes in Zhejiang province from 2008 to 2013.

METHODSData were obtained from hospital-based perinatal mortality surveillance system in Zhejiang, including all the hospitals in 30 monitoring counties (districts). All births (28 or more weeks of gestation) born in the monitoring hospitals were included in our study within 7 days after delivery from 2008 to 2013. Chi-square test was performed for statistical analyses for comparisons between regions. Trends in the incidence of multiple births and causes of perinatal death were analyzed using chi-square test for trend.

RESULTSFrom 2008 to 2013, the multiple births rate in Zhejiang province was increased and the rates were 2.32% (5 551/239 636), 2.49% (6 053/243 452), 2.61% (6 549/250 594), 2.82% (7 758/275 105), 2.91% (8 803/302 447) and 3.06% (9 051/295 709), respectively. And the perinatal mortality rates for multiple births were 4.32% (240/5 551), 3.45% (209/6 053), 3.76% (246/6 549), 2.86% (222/7 758), 2.77% (244/8 803) and 2.11% (191/9 051), respectively. A significant drop in the perinatal mortality rates for multiple births was observed between 2008 and 2013 (χ(2) trend = 66.52, P < 0.001). There was a significantly greater risk for perinatal death to multiple births when compared with single birth (OR = 3.62, 95% CI: 3.42-3.83). The three leading causes of perinatal death for multiple births were birth defect, premature and/or low birth weight, and twin-twin transfusion syndrome.

CONCLUSIONThe multiple births rates in Zhejiang province showed an increasing trend. The perinatal mortality rates for multiple births were decreased annually, however, it was still higher than those in developed countries.
