Objective:To compare the sustained virological response (SVR) and viral recurrence in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) after antiviral treatment, and to further analyze the influencing factors of liver-related events (LRE).Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. A total of 1 844 CHC patients who visited the Department of Infectious Diseases of Hainan General Hospital from January 1st, 2013 to December 31st, 2022 were included. After screening, 891 patients were selected and divided into direct-acting antiviral agent (DAA) treatment group, interferon treatment group and non-antiviral treatment group based on different intervention measures. Propensity score matching was performed, and SVR and viral recurrence were compared among the three groups. Statistical analysis was performed using the chi-square test, and multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to evaluate the risk factors for LRE.Results:The confirmed CHC patients showed an increasing trend year by year (average annual change percentage=19.97%, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 10.46% to 30.30%, t=4.32, P<0.001). After propensity score matching, the total sample size of 891 CHC patients was 451, including 100 in the interferon treatment group, 311 in the DAA treatment group, and 40 in the non-antiviral treatment group. In the interferon treatment group, 89 cases (89.00%) achieved SVR and nine cases (9.00%) had recurrence. In the DAA treatment group, 306 cases (98.39%) achieved SVR and 10 cases (3.22%) had recurrence. The differences were statistically significant ( χ2=17.84 and 6.22, respectively, both P<0.05). Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that age (hazard ratio ( HR)=1.065, 95% CI 1.028 to 1.104, P<0.001), alcohol consumption ( HR=3.034, 95% CI 1.302 to 7.071, P=0.010) were independent risk factors for LRE in CHC patients, while albumin ( HR=0.858, 95% CI 0.802 to 0.917, P<0.001), DAA treatment ( HR=0.267, 95% CI 0.103 to 0.692, P=0.007) were protective factors. In CHC patients receiving antiviral treatment, diabetes ( HR=6.719, 95% CI 2.242 to 20.137, P<0.001), total bilirubin ( HR=1.111, 95% CI 1.054 to 1.171, P<0.001) and viral recurrence ( HR=4.646, 95% CI 1.322 to 16.321, P=0.017) were independent risk factors for LRE. Conclusions:Compared with interferon treatment, DAA treatment has a significantly higher SVR rate and a lower recurrence rate. Age and alcohol consumption are independent risk factors for LRE, while higher albumin levels and DAA treatment are protective factors. In CHC patients receiving antiviral treatment, diabetes, viral recurrence, and total bilirubin are independent risk factors for LRE.

Objective:To discuss the effect of knock-out MG53 on skeletal muscle,and to determine whether MG53 can protect skeletal muscle from injury during delayed onset muscle damage(DOMS).Method:Eighty-four eight-week old C57 mice were divided into two groups due to their gene (WT and KO),and each group were divided into 7 subgroups again.14 groups,6 mice in each.They were WC,WE0,WE2,WE12,WE24,WE48,WE72 and KC,KE0,KE2,KE12,KE24,KE48,KE72.At each time point after 3 days eccentric exercise,the mice were decapitated after drawing blood.The rectus femoris of left leg was used to detect the level of MG53 with Western blot,the other side were used to do electron microscope analysis.Blood CK were measured also.Result:The CK of K0 raised remarkably and decreased gradually until W 12.But the second peak appear at W24 and decreased again gradually since then.Ultrastructural changes of skeletal muscle after eccentric exercise at different time points is obvious.The injury is worsen gradually from Wo to W24,and improved gradually from W48 to W72.Comparing with W groups,the injury in K group were even worsen an each time point.The MG53 of W0 and W24 were 16％ and 11％ higher than those before exercise (p＜0.05)and restored to normal in 72 hours after exercise.Conclusion:The injury after severe exercise is more severity in MG53 knock-out mouse than those in wild mouse.and the MG53 protein increased significantly.It suggests that MG53 may significantly relieve the skeleton muscle injury in delayed muscle sore period.

Objective To describe an intelligent three-dimensional technique for automatic visualization of the fetal cranial mid-sagittal view to allow for the differential diagnosis of fetal midline anomalies.Methods Two hundred and twenty pregnant women with singleton pregnancies were imaged to display the mid-sagittal view of fetal head using a new 3D program (Smart MSP) developed by our team.Results The mid-sagittal view of the fetal head was successfully visualized in 190 normal cases (95％) and 18 abnormal cases (90％) by Smart MSP program.The total successful rate was 94.5％ (208/220).Conclusions Smart MSP is a novel and feasible method for the automatic visualization of fetal cranial midsagittal plane and may become a potential tool for routinely screening the fetal midline anomalies.

Objective To determine effect of endurance training on the expression of fatty acid translocase FAT/ CD36 in skeletal muscle of rats and the correlation between the expression and insulin sensitivity index (ISI). Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to two groups:training group(T,n=13) and control group (C, n=10). Rats in group T were trained on treadmill six days a week for 7 weeks. Fat pads around testes and kidneys were weighted for calculating the percentage of fat pads vs body weight. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG),nonesterified fatty acids(NEFA) and fasting insulin(FINS) were measured. Western blot was used to detect FAT/ CD36 protein expression in quadriceps homogenate. The relation of FAT/CD36 expression to the ISI was analyzed. Results Markedly lower body weight,percentage of fat pads, TC,NEFA, and FINS were seen in group T after 7-week endurance training comparing to that in group C(P<0.01 ,P<0.01 ,P<0.01 ,P<0.05,and P<0.05,respectively). The FAT/CD36 protein expression and ISI were significantly higher in group T than in group C(P<0.01and P<0.05). A significant correlation between FAT/CD36 and ISI were found in group T(r=0.823,P<0.01 ),nut not in group C. Conclusion Seven-week endurance training improved insulin sensitivity and up-regulated the expression of FAT/CD36 for adapting the requirement of fatty acid transportation in skeletal muscle induced by enhanced lipid catabolism after endurance exercise.

Objective:Study of intensive endurance training and supplementation of herbal polysaccharide extracts on levels of IL-2, IL-4,IL-10 in serum of rats.Methods:120 Wistar Rats were randomly divided into 6 groups: sedentary control group(n=20), sedentary with supplementation of APS group(n=20), sedentary with supplementation of ABPS group(n=20), training group(n=20), training with supplementation of APS group(n=20) and training with supplementation of ABPS group(n=20). After 4-week and 6-week swimming, IL-2, IL-4,IL-10 in serum of rats and supernatant of PBMC were tested through ELISA.Results:After 6 weeks training, (1) In training group, the level of IL-2 in serum was lower than that in sedentary control group(P

0.05) after 6-week training. Conclusion The results indicated that supplementation with ABPS or APS may help regulate cellular immune capacity through modulating IL-2 and its receptors levels in rats during strenuous training.
