Aristolochic acids (AAs) have long been considered as a potent carcinogen due to its nephrotoxicity. Aristolochic acid I (AAI) reacts with DNA to form covalent aristolactam (AL)-DNA adducts, leading to subsequent A to T transversion mutation, commonly referred as AA mutational signature. Previous research inferred that AAs were widely implicated in liver cancer throughout Asia. In this study, we explored whether AAs exposure was the main cause of liver cancer in the context of HBV infection in mainland China. Totally 1256 liver cancer samples were randomly retrieved from 3 medical centers and a refined bioanalytical method was used to detect AAI-DNA adducts. 5.10% of these samples could be identified as AAI positive exposure. Whole genome sequencing suggested 8.41% of 107 liver cancer patients exhibited the dominant AA mutational signature, indicating a relatively low overall AAI exposure rate. In animal models, long-term administration of AAI barely increased liver tumorigenesis in adult mice, opposite from its tumor-inducing role when subjected to infant mice. Furthermore, AAI induced dose-dependent accumulation of AA-DNA adduct in target organs in adult mice, with the most detected in kidney instead of liver. Taken together, our data indicate that AA exposure was not the major threat of liver cancer in adulthood.

Pathological specimen sampling is not only the prerequisite of a good pathological diagnosis, but also the primary clinical skill that must be mastered by the standardized residency training trainees (resident trainees) in clinical pathology department. In view of the problems and difficulties encountered in the teaching of specimen sampling, through five years of exploration and attempt, this paper has gradually established a new model with five basic elements, including theory teaching, practice teaching, promoting teaching effect by examination, learning from senior students, and review teaching. The results of evaluation analysis and questionnaire survey show that the teaching mode can make the trainees master the methods of specimen sampling quickly and efficiently, learn and improve clinical skills in practice, and lay a solid foundation for the subsequent standardized training of histopathological diagnosis.

Objective:Through the establishment and application of the biosafety autopsy pathology platform in Huoshenshan Hospital, the feasibility and application effect of the biosafety autopsy pathology platform were analyzed.Methods:The feasibility and application effect of the biosafety autopsy pathology platform were analyzed by layout design, instruments and equipment preparation, testing methods examination, and effect evaluation.Results:A total number of 26 cases of systematic autopsy and 8 cases of minimally invasive autopsy (puncture) were performed on the biosafety autopsy pathology platform, and no one was infected. Some pathology original findings were identified, including COVID-19 and pathological characteristics of identification, SARS respiratory failure mechanism and treatment significance, systemic distribution and spreading mechanism of the new coronavirus, the " storm" of inflammation pathological basis, some tumor markers rise in pulmonary pathological cell source and the overcast with fibrosis characteristics, such findings play important roles in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19.Conclusions:The study of autopsy pathology is of great significance for the prevention and control of emerging infectious disease, which calls for early intervention. To promote the standard construction of biosafety autopsy platform is the key to the pathological study of emerging infectious diseases. Pathological research and clinical diagnosis and treatment should be combined to inform each other.

Objective:To construct an Omaha system-based remote intervention program for clinical nurses' neck, shoulder and low back pain and evaluate its effect.Methods:From July to October 2020, 94 nurses with neck, shoulder and low back pain in a Class Ⅲ hospital were randomly selected by ward. Using the envelope method, nurses were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group, with 47 cases in each group, among them, the intervention group dropped 1 and the remaining 46 persons, the control group dropped 4 and the remaining 43 persons. The intervention group conducted a remote intervention program (using Omaha system as the theoretical framework, and using literature review, semi-structured interviews and expert consultation to construct a remote intervention program for clinical nurses' neck, shoulder and low back pain) . The control group used conventional guidance. The General Information Questionnaire, Exercise Compliance Questionnaire, Knowledge-Behavior-Symptoms (K-B-S) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) were used to evaluate the intervention effect.Results:The exercise compliance of nurses in the intervention group was 78.26% (36/46) and that in the control group was 39.53% (17/43) , the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01) . After 6 weeks of intervention, the nurses' cognitive and behavior scores in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . There was no statistically significant difference in the symptom score between the two groups ( P>0.05) . The VAS score and frequency of neck, shoulder and low back pain were lower than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Based on Omaha system, the remote intervention program for the clinical nurses' neck, shoulder and low back pain is safe, scientific and theoretical. It can improve cognition and behavior of neck, shoulder and low back pain nurses, reduce the intensity and frequency of pain, and the nurses have good compliance.

Objective:To explore the operative effect and treatment strategies for the low distal humerus fracture.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 16 patients with the low distal humerus fracture between January 2016 and January 2018 at Department of Orthopaedics, Shanghai Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University.All fractures were coronal fractures of humeral head, partly combined fractures of humeral trochlea or posterior part. Fractures were classified according to Dubberley classification as 9 cases in type Ⅰ, 3 cases in typeⅡ and 4 cases in type Ⅲ.Selection of the kind of operative approach and internal fixation was made according to the fracture type and shape. For simple coronal fractures of humeral head or combining humeral trochlea fractures, which were relatively stable, single or multiple countersunk screws fixation by the lateral approach were chosen.For humeral head coronal fractures, which combining obviously displaced comminuted humeral trochlea factures, posterolateral locking plates and countersunk screws internal fixation by the olecranon osteotomy approach were chosen. The incision and elbow soft tissues were observed within 2 weeks after operation.The radiographic evaluation of fracture reduction, bone healing, internal fixation, arthritis and elbow range of motion were made at 3, 6, 12 months after operation. The Mayo elbow functional scores were documented for analysis of elbow joint function, and compared between different surgery groups by Kruskal-Wallis H test. Results:The follow-up time was (22.1±9.2)months(range: 15 to 39 months). The incisions healed well in 2 weeks after operation without soft tissue infection, necrosis or vascular complications. There was no fracture reduction loss or internal fixation loosening according to radiographic evaluation 3 months after operation. One case of ectopic ossification was observed 6 months after operation and inhibited by the treatment of non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.One case of ulnar neuritis occurred after operation and released after removing the long screw and loosing the ulnar.Osteoarthritis images were observed at the end of follow-up.Arc of motion was (120.4±11.2) ° in flexion and (5.5±1.9) ° in extension. The Mayo score was 88.7±9.1, including 11 excellent, 4 good, and 1 fair.The Mayo score was 90.1±3.7 in Dubberley classification type Ⅰcases, 89.7±4.6 in type Ⅱ cases and 84.5±5.8 in type Ⅲ cases. There were no significant differences in Mayo scores between 3 types cases according to Kruskal-Wallis H test. Conclusion:Choosing the appropriate surgical approach and composite internal fixation according to the fracture types and shapes of low distal humerus fracture, anatomic reduction of the articular surface and early functional exercise are the keys to obtain ideal curative effect.

Objective:To investigate the pathological characteristics and the clinical significance of novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV)-infected pneumonia (termed by WHO as coronavirus disease 2019, COVID-19).Methods:Minimally invasive autopsies from lung, heart, kidney, spleen, bone marrow, liver, pancreas, stomach, intestine, thyroid and skin were performed on three patients died of novel coronavirus pneumonia in Chongqing, China. Hematoxylin and eosin staining (HE), transmission electron microcopy, and histochemical staining were performed to investigate the pathological changes of indicated organs or tissues. Immunohistochemical staining was conducted to evaluate the infiltration of immune cells as well as the expression of 2019-nCoV proteins. Real time PCR was carried out to detect the RNA of 2019-nCoV.Results:Various damages were observed in the alveolar structure, with minor serous exudation and fibrin exudation. Hyaline membrane formation was observed in some alveoli. The infiltrated immune cells in alveoli were majorly macrophages and monocytes. Moderate multinucleated giant cells, minimal lymphocytes, eosinophils and neutrophils were also observed. Most of infiltrated lymphocytes were CD4-positive T cells. Significant proliferation of type Ⅱ alveolar epithelia and focal desquamation of alveolar epithelia were also indicated. The blood vessels of alveolar septum were congested, edematous and widened, with modest infiltration of monocytes and lymphocytes. Hyaline thrombi were found in a minority of microvessels. Focal hemorrhage in lung tissue, organization of exudates in some alveolar cavities, and pulmonary interstitial fibrosis were observed. Part of the bronchial epithelia were exfoliated. Coronavirus particles in bronchial mucosal epithelia and type Ⅱ alveolar epithelia were observed under electron microscope. Immunohistochemical staining showed that part of the alveolar epithelia and macrophages were positive for 2019-nCoV antigen. Real time PCR analyses identified positive signals for 2019-nCoV nucleic acid. Decreased numbers of lymphocyte, cell degeneration and necrosis were observed in spleen. Furthermore, degeneration and necrosis of parenchymal cells, formation of hyaline thrombus in small vessels, and pathological changes of chronic diseases were observed in other organs and tissues, while no evidence of coronavirus infection was observed in these organs.Conclusions:The lungs from novel coronavirus pneumonia patients manifest significant pathological lesions, including the alveolar exudative inflammation and interstitial inflammation, alveolar epithelium proliferation and hyaline membrane formation. While the 2019-nCoV is mainly distributed in lung, the infection also involves in the damages of heart, vessels, liver, kidney and other organs. Further studies are warranted to investigate the mechanism underlying pathological changes of this disease.
