Objective:To analyze the genotypes distribution of common and rare thalassemia in people of reproductive age in Huadu district of Guangzhou,enhance the database of thalassemia.Methods:Peripheral blood samples were collected for genotype analysis in Maternity and Child Health Hospital of Huadu District from January 2016 to October 2022.Gap-PCR and Reverse dot blot hybridization were used to detect common thalassemia genotypes.DNA sequencing was performed in samples suspected of rare genotypes.Results:A total of 16 171 subjects were identified as thalassemia carriers,and the positive rate was 44.41％(16 171/36 412).The genotypes of 114 cases(0.31％)were rare.A total of 10 845 cases were identified as α-thalassemia carriers(29.78％),and--SEA/αα was the most common genotype in those people,followed by-α3.7/αα and-α4.2/αα.A total of 4 531 subjects were identified as common β-thalassemia carriers(12.44％).The most common β-thalassemia mutation in the population was β41-42/βN,followed by β654/βN and β-28/β N.A total of 681 subjects were identified as αβ thalassemia carriers(1.87％),among them--SEA/αα compounded withβ CD41-42/β N was the most common genotype.A total of 48 cases were identified as rare α-thalassemia carriers,14 types of mutations,in which Fusion gene/αα was the most common.A total of 52 cases were identified as rare β-thalassemia carriers,11 types of mutation,in which βSEA-HPFH/βN was the most common.Conclusion:The thalassemia genotypes in Huadu district are complex and diverse.We should attach great importance to the detection of rare thalassemia genotypes.

Objective To explore the relevant risk factors of H.pylori infection,and provide reference for prevention and treatment of H.pylori in this area,and further provide theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer.Methods A total of 1200 residents in four districts of Haikou city were investigated by questionnaire and urea 14 C breath test by holistic stratified random sampling to calculate the population infection rate and analyze the risk factors of infection.Results The total infection rate was 32.5％,which was lower than the national H.pylori infection rate.No consumption of fruits and vegetables,no habit of washing hands before meals,and people with gastrointestinal symptoms,are independent risk factors of H.pylori infection.No consumption of pickled products is of great significance to prevent H.pylori infection.Conclusion The prevalence of H.pylori infection in the population of Haikou is lower than the national average,and H.pylori infection is closely related to the poor living habits of residents.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Objective To study the bioequivalence of two glipizide tablets in healthy Chinese subjects.Methods Randomized,open,single-administration,two-period,self-cross-over trial design was used in the study.There were 28 Chinese healthy subjects in the fasted state and 28 in the fed state,complete repeat cross single dose oral glipizide tablets test preparation or reference preparation 5 mg.The plasma concentration of glipizide was determined by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry at different time points after administration.The non-compartmental model was used to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters and evaluate the bioequivalence of the two formulations.Results The main pharmacokinetic parameters of glipizide in the fasted state were as follows:Cmax were(551.60±91.26)and(518.10±105.10)ng·mL-1;AUC0-t were(3 074.33±861.91)and(3 026.77±934.25)h·ng·mL-1;AUC0-∞ were(3 204.85±990.78)and(3 166.35±1 107.36)h ng·mL-1.The parameters of glipizide in the fed state were as follows:Cmax were(517.30±98.97)and(472.80±114.48)ng·mL-1;AUC0-t were(3 001.12±830.87)and(2 932.79±736.35)h·ng·mL-1;AUC0-∞ were(3 067.00±918.84)and(2 997.44±819.14)h·ng·mL-1.The 90％confidence interval of the Cmax,AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ of the test formulation and the reference formulation were from 80.00％to 125.00％.The incidence of adverse events in fasted group and fed group was no serious adverse events.Conclusion The two glipizide tablets were bioequivalent under fasted and fed conditions,and good security.

Objective Little is known about the association between whole-blood nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NAD+)levels and nabothian cysts.This study aimed to assess the association between NAD+levels and nabothian cysts in healthy Chinese women. Methods Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the association between NAD+levels and nabothian cysts. Results The mean age was 43.0±11.5 years,and the mean level of NAD+was 31.3±5.3 μmol/L.Nabothian cysts occurred in 184(27.7%)participants,with single and multiple cysts in 100(15.0%)and 84(12.6%)participants,respectively.The total nabothian cyst prevalence gradually decreased from 37.4%to 21.6%from Q1 to Q4 of NAD+and the prevalence of single and multiple nabothian cysts also decreased across the NAD+quartiles.As compared with the highest NAD+quartile(≥34.4 μmol/L),the adjusted odds ratios with 95%confidence interval of the NAD+Q1 was 1.89(1.14-3.14)for total nabothian cysts.The risk of total and single nabothian cysts linearly decreased with increasing NAD+levels,while the risk of multiple nabothian cysts decreased more rapidly at NAD+levels of 28.0 to 35.0 μmol/L. Conclusion:Low NAD+levels were associated with an increased risk of total and multiple nabothian cysts.

Objective:To explore the repair effect of resveratrol combined with Schwann cell-like cells(SCLCs)dif-ferentiated from adipose-derived stem cells(ADSCs)on sciatic nerve injury in rats.Methods:ADSCs were primarily cultured and induced to differentiate into SCLCs.Cell morphology was observed by scanning electron microscopy.West-ern Blot method was used to detect the expressions of S100 calcium-binding protein β(S100β),p75 neurotrophin receptor(p75NTR),and glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP).Rats were randomly divided into Control group(Con-trol),Schwann cell-like cell group(SCLCs),resveratrol group(Res),and resveratrol+Schwann cell-like cell group(Res+SCLCs).Eight weeks after the successful establishment of the sciatic nerve injury model,the sciatic nerve func-tion index(SFI)of each group was detected by footprint experiment;the mechanical withdrawal threshold(MWT)was measured by von Frey filament stimulation needle;The wet weight ratio(WR)of the tibialis anterior muscle was deter-mined by weighing method;Western Blot and RT-qPCR methods were used to detect the expressions of neurotrophin-3(NT-3),nerve growth factor(NGF),insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1),and brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)at the injury site.Results:After 8 days of induction of ADSCs,the cells had elongated poles and increased extracellular components;S100β,p75NTR,and GFAP proteins were highly expressed.After treatment with SCLCs,Res,and Res+SCLCs,the SFI and WR of the treatment groups were significantly better than those of the Control group(P＜0.05);the MWT of rats in the Res+SCLCs group and SCLCs group was reduced(P＜0.05).Western Blot re-sults showed that the expressions of NT-3,IGF-1,NGF,and BDNF proteins in rats in the Res+SCLCs group were higher than those in other groups(P＜0.05);The expressions of NT-3,NGF,and BDNF proteins in rats in the SCLCs group were higher than those in the Control group(P＜0.05);the expressions of NT-3 and NGF proteins in rats in the Res group were higher than those in the Control group(P＜0.05).RT-qPCR results showed that the expressions of NT-3,IGF-1,NGF,and BDNF mRNA in rats in the Res+SCLCs group were highly expressed;the expressions of NT-3,IGF-1,NGF,and BDNF mRNA in rats in the SCLCs group were higher than those in the Control group(P＜0.05);The expressions of IGF-1 and NGF mRNA in rats in the Res group were higher than those in the Control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Res combined with SCLCs differentiated from ADSCs has a good repair effect on sciatic nerve inju-ry in rats.

Objective:To explore the differences in postoperative recovery, economic effects, and discharge readiness between the day surgical ward mode and the traditional hospitalization mode for lung cancer patients based on propensity score matching analysis.Methods:From August to December 2022, 320 lung cancer patients who underwent thoracoscopy in the Department of Thoracic Surgery and Day Surgery Ward of the Shanghai Chest Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were selected as the study subject by convenience sampling. The patients were surveyed using the General Information Questionnaire and the Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS) . The differences in postoperative recovery indicators, economic indicators, and discharge readiness between the day surgical ward mode and the traditional hospitalization mode for lung cancer patients were compared. A total of 320 questionnaires were distributed, and 308 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 96.25% (308/320) .Results:Among 308 lung cancer patients, there were 161 in the day surgical ward mode group and 147 in the traditional hospitalization mode group. Through propensity matching, a total of 160 cases were successfully matched, with 80 cases in each group. The first time out of bed, chest tube retention time, and postoperative hospitalization time in the day surgical ward mode group were all shorter than those in the traditional hospitalization mode group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications, adverse reactions, and pain scores between the two groups on the first and second postoperative days ( P>0.05) . The laboratory expenses, Western medicine expenses, and total postoperative hospitalization expenses of the day surgical ward mode group were all lower than those of the traditional hospitalization mode group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The individual status, adaptability, and discharge readiness scores of the day surgical ward mode group were lower than those of the traditional hospitalization mode group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The daytime surgical ward mode based on enhanced recovery after surgery for lung cancer can ensure the safety of patients during the perioperative period, promote early recovery, shorten hospitalization time, and improve economic effects. Compared to the traditional hospitalization mode, there is still room for improvement in the discharge readiness of the day surgical ward mode. It is necessary to strengthen the evaluation of patient discharge readiness and implement targeted interventions.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between FCER2（2206A>G） gene polymorphism and the efficacy of inhaled corticosteroids（ICS） in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis（CRS）. Methods:A total of 208 CRS patients were routinely treated with functional endonasal sinus surgery and postoperative ICS. DNA extraction, PCR amplification and gene sequencing were performed to observe the FCER2（2206A>G） gene polymorphism and calculate the allele frequency. The visual analog scale（VAS） score, Lund-Kennedy score, and computed tomography（CT） Lund-Mackay score were determined 6 months after surgery among patients with different genotypes. Moreover, the polymorphism frequency was compared among different subgroups（chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps versus chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps, eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis versus non-eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis）. Results:There were FCER2（2206A>G） gene polymorphism in patients with CRS, and the phenotypes included 3 genotypes, AA, AG and GG, with distribution frequencies of 68（32.7%）, 116（55.8%） and 24（11.5%） cases, respectively. No significant differences were found in age, VAS score, nasal endoscopic Lund-Kennedy score and CT imaging Lund-Mackay score among patients with CRS of each genotype before surgery. In patients with the AA genotype, the changes in VAS score（5.74±1.10）, Lund Kennedy score（5.92 ± 1.14）, and CT imaging Lund-Mackay score（13.26±4.26） were significantly higher than in patients with the AG（4.37±0.86, 5.37±1.24, 10.82±3.77） and GG（4.26±0.80, 5.18±1.56, 10.10±3.53） genotype（P<0.05）. However, there were no marked difference between patients with the AG genotype and those with the GG genotype（P>0.05）. Compared with patients with non-eosinophilic sinusitis, Among them, the differences between the GG genotype and AG /AA genes were more significant in eosinophilic sinusitis compared to non-eosinophilic sinusitis（P<0.01）. Conclusion:The FCER2（2206A>G） gene in patients with CRS has genetic polymorphism and is associated with the recovery of CRS patients after surgery, individual corticosteroid sensitivity, and subgroup variability.
