Objective    To compare the clinical effects of segmentectomy and lobectomy for ≤2 cm lung adenocarcinoma with micropapillary and solid subtype negative by intraoperative frozen sections. Methods    The patients with adenocarcinoma who received segmentectomy or lobectomy in multicenter from June 2020 to March 2021 were included. They were divided into two groups according to a random number table, including a segmentectomy group (n=119, 44 males and 75 females with an average age of 56.6±8.9 years) and a lobectomy group (n=115, 43 males and 72 females with an average of 56.2±9.5 years). The clinical data of the patients were analyzed. Results    There was no significant difference in the baseline data between the two groups (P>0.05). No perioperative death was found. There was no statistical difference in the operation time (111.2±30.0 min vs. 107.3±34.3 min), blood loss (54.2±83.5 mL vs. 40.0±16.4 mL), drainage duration (2.8±0.6 d vs. 2.6±0.6 d), hospital stay time (3.9±2.3 d vs. 3.7±1.1 d) or pathology staging (P>0.05) between the two groups. The postoperative pulmonary function analysis revealed that the mean decreased values of forced vital capacity and forced expiratory volume in one second percent predicted in the segmentectomy group were significantly better than those in the lobectomy group (0.2±0.3 L vs. 0.4±0.3 L, P=0.005; 0.3%±8.1% vs. 2.9%±7.4%, P=0.041). Conclusion    Segmentectomy is effective in protecting lungs function, which is expected to improve life quality of patients.

Objective: To investigate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic CAR-T cells in the treatment of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) . Methods: CAR-T cells were prepared from peripheral blood lymphocytes of HLA mismatch healthy donors. Median age was 55 (48-60) . Allogeneic cells were derived from 3 HLA haploidentical donors and 1 HLA completely mismatch unrelated donor. Four patients with RRMM were conditioned with FC regimen followed by CAR-T cell transfusion. They were infused into CART-19 (1×10⁷/kg on day 0) and (4.0-6.8) ×10⁷/kg CART-BCMA cells as split-dose infusions (40% on day 1 and 60% on day 2) . The adverse reactions and clinical efficacy were observed during follow-up after infusion, and the amplification and duration of CAR-T cells in vivo were monitored by PCR technique. Results: CAR-T cells were successfully infused in 3 of the 4 RRMM patients according to the study plan, and the infusion in one patient was delayed by 1 day due to high fever and elevated creatinine levels on day 3. The side effects included hematological and non-hematological toxicity, grade 3 hematological toxicity in 2 patients, grade 3 CRS in 1 one, grade 1 CRES in 1 one, prolonged APTT in 3 ones, tumor lysis syndrome in 1 one, mixed chimerism detected STR and clinical GVHD manifestation in 1 one. According to the efficacy criterias of IMWG, 2 patients acquired PR, 1 MR, and 1 SD respectively. Progression-free survival was 4 (3-5) weeks and overall survival was 63 (3-81) weeks. CAR T cells were amplified 2.2 (2-14) times in the patients with a median survival time of 10 (8-36) days. Conclusions Small sample studies suggested that GVHD may be present in the treatment of RRMM with allogeneic CAR-T cells. There were early clinical transient events after transfusion. Low amplification and short duration of CAR-T cells in vivo may be the main factors affecting the efficacy.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors for sleep duration of school children aged 6-12 years in school-day in 8 provinces in China.Methods The cross sectional study was conducted among 20 603 children aged 6-12 years and selected through stratified random cluster sampling in 8 provinces (municipality and autonomous region) with different geographic characteristics and economic development level in China from September to November,2010 to understand their sleep duration in school-day and related habits.t test and x2 test were used to compare the sleep duration of the children.Multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify the influencing factors.Results The survey indicated that the daily average sleep duration of the children in school days was 9.11 hours.The proportions of the children with serious insufficient sleep,insufficient sleep and sufficient sleep were 32.82％ (7 672/20 603),39.70％ (8 179/20 603) and 27.48％ (5 662/20 603),the children's sleep duration declined with age,so did proportion of children with serious insufficient sleep.There were no sex,urban or rural area and household income level specific significant differences in sleep duration among the children surveyed,and there were no sex specific differences in the proportion of children with serious insufficient sleep,insufficient sleep and sufficient sleep,however,these proportions were statistically different between urban area and rural area and among the regions with different economic level.The proportions of children with serious insufficient sleep and sufficient sleep was higher in rural area than in urban area (x2=59.96,x2=45.47,P＜ 0.05),while the proportion of children with insufficient sleep was lower in rural area than in urban area.In the economy developed region,the proportion of children with insufficient sleep was lowest,the difference was statistical significant.After adjusting for sex,weight,diet and exercise time,multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the factors benefiting children to have 10 hours sleep every day included having high protein diet,exercise,high household economic status and living in urban area.Conclusion The problem of school children having insufficient sleep was serious in China,especially in the rural area.

Objective To understand the differences on sleeping-time between school-days and weekends among elementary school children.Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted from September to November,2010.A stratified random cluster sampling strategy was used to select the participants,under diverse geographical and economic levels in eight provinces,municipalities or autonomous regions,in mainland China.A total number of 20 603 elementary school children aged from 6-12 years old were chosen as research subjects to record their time of sleeping during school-days or weekends.Results Among the 6-12 year old,their time of sleeping was longer on weekends than that on school-days,while the average sleeping time during the weekends was longer in boys than in girls (t=3.35,P＜0.05).However,there was no linearly decreasing trend along with the increase of age regarding the time of sleeping on weekends,in girls.Proportions of serious lack of sleep,lack of sleep or with sufficient sleep during the weekends were 13.63％ (2 809/20 603),27.27％ (5 618/20 603) and 59.10％ (12 176/20 603).The proportion of sufficient sleep (over 50％) was significantly higher on weekends than that on school-days (less than 30％),however,nearly one third of the first grade primary school children were sleep insufficiently even on weekends.Nearly 10.00％ of the children under seriously or moderately lack of sleep on school-days were still in a serious lack of sleep state on weekends.The three groups who were categorized as serious lack of sleep (less than 9 h),lack of sleep (9-10 h) or having sufficient (over 10 h) sleep on school-days accounted for 29.75％,64.48％,86.44％,respectively,when compared with the national regulation set as 10 h daily sleep for the children in China.The proportions of those whose time of sleep on weekends was less than school-days in the three groups as the same,moderate (within 1 h),with 1 h caught-up or over,were 9.41％,22.77％,43.32％,24.50％,respectively.The percentage of pupils who caught up sleep appropriately (within 1 h) on weekends among those who were serious lack of sleep in school-days would exceed 40.00％ while the proportions among those who lack of sleep or having sufficient on school-days were 54.00％ and 30.00％.The percentage of children who slept less on weekends than on school-days among those having sufficient sleep on school-days appeared the highest,nearly 20.00％.However,the proportions among those who lack of sleep or seriously lack of sleep on school-days were 3.45％ and 8.16％,respectively.Conclusion We found that the elementary school children who could catch up time of sleep or lack of sleep on weekends coexisting in our study.This situation called for attention and the sleeping habit in primary school children should also be urgently improved.

Objective To get TDRP1 gene of sterile and fertile boar of the Banna minipig inbred line (BMI), predict its function by bioinformatics analysis, and detect its expression patterns in the fertile boar.Methods Based on the NM_001198925 sequence, we designed specific primers and amplified BMI TDRP1 using RT-PCR method for sequen-cing and bioinformatics analysis.Meanwhile, the expression of TDRP1 in 17 organ tissues ( heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, thymus, lymph nodes, skin, duodenum, stomach, cerebrum, cerebellum, testis, epididymis, seminal vesicle, prostate, and bulbourethral gland) of fertile BMI boar and in the testis of sterile and fertile BMI boars was analyzed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.Results The experiment obtained 680 bp cDNA sequence ( GenBank accession number:KJ186786) of BMI TDRP1, which encodes a protein of 186 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight (Mw) of 20.49 kDa and isoelectric point (pI) 5.86, and no signal peptide.It was a nuclear protein with a probability of 94.1%and had a leucine-rich nuclear export signals.Homology analysis of protein sequences revealed that BMI TDRP1 showed high identi-ty with that of humans, macaca mulatta, mouse and rat.The RT-PCR analysis showed that TDRP1 had a similar expression in the testes of sterile and fertile BMI boars.It was highly abundant in the seminal vesicle and prostate, moderately ex-pressed in cerebellum and testis and weakly expressed in cerebrum and kidney, while undetected in other 11 organ tissues. Conclusions We have cloned TDRP1 complete coding sequence, and found 2 SNPs,showing no difference in sequences and the testis mRNA expression levels between the fertile and sterile BMI boars.The multi-tissue transcription profile shows different expression levels in different organ tissues, being high in the seminal vesicle and prostate.The results of this study provide a foundation for further insight into the role of this gene in spermatogenesis.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the relationship between birth weight and elevated blood pressure among schoolchildren aged 6-11 years in 8 provinces of China.

METHODA stratified random cluster sampling was used from sampling frame of eight provinces in the mainland of China. A total of 18 920 students aged 6-11 years eventually participated in this study. Height, weight, waist circumference (WC) and blood pressure of all the subjects were measured. Korotkoff I and V were recorded as systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP). Elevated blood pressure was considered for SBP and/or DBP equal to or above the reference sex-, age- and height-specific 95th percentile. Birth weight and family history of hypertension were collected by self-administered questionnaire. Analysis of variance was used to compare body measure indicators among 3 birth weight groups. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the relationship between birth weight, current BMI and elevated blood pressure among children.

RESULTThe level of height, weight, WC, BMI, SBP and DBP were on the rise with the increase of the birth weight groups among boys (P < 0.05), except for WC among boys aged 6-8 years. The level of height, weight, WC, BMI and DBP showed a trend of escalation among girls (P < 0.05). But, SBP among 3 birth weight groups in girls was not significantly different (P = 0.099). After adjusting for age and family history of hypertension, compared with the normal birth weight group, the odds ratio and 95%CI of having elevated blood pressure among boys and girls in high birth weight group were 1.23 (1.06-1.43) and 0.89 (0.71-1.10), respectively; and the ORs(95%CI) were 1.06 (0.90-1.24) for boys and 0.73 (0.58-0.91) for girls after adjusting for age, family history of hypertension and current BMI of students. The relative risk of elevated blood pressure for boys and girls in low birth weight group were not significantly different as compared with normal birth weight group.

CONCLUSIONCurrent BMI but not birth weight was found to be a strong determinant of elevated blood pressure among children aged 6-11 years in China.
