Objective:
To investigate the trends in incidence and mortality of lung cancer in Huangpu District, Shanghai Municipality from 2002 to 2019, so as to provide the evidence for formulating lung cancer prevention and control measures.
Methods:
Data of lung cancer incidence and mortality among residents in Huangpu District from 2002 to 2019 were collected through the Shanghai Cancer Registration and Reporting Management System. The crude incidence and mortality of lung cancer was calculated, and standardized by the data from the Chinese Fifth National Population Census in 2000 (Chinese-standardized rate) and the Segi's world standard population in 1960 (world-standardized rate). The trends in incidence and mortality of lung cancer among residents by age and gender were evaluated using annual percent change (APC).
Results:
A total of 12 965 cases of lung cancer were reported in Huangpu District from 2002 to 2019, and the crude incidence rate was 80.66/105, the Chinese-standardized incidence rate was 34.54/105, and the world-standardized incidence rate was 31.30/105, all showing upward trends (APC=4.588%, 2.933% and 3.247%, all P<0.05). A total of 10 102 deaths of lung cancer were reported, and the crude mortality rate was 62.30/105, showing an upward trend (APC=0.959%, P<0.05); the Chinese-standardized mortality was 25.93/105, and the world-standardized mortality was 22.05/105, both showing downward trends (APC=-1.282% and -1.263%, both P<0.05). The crude incidence and mortality rates of lung cancer in males were higher than those in females (101.39/105 vs. 60.52/105, 85.45/105 vs. 39.87/105, both P<0.05). The crude incidence and mortality rates of lung cancer showed upward trends with age (both P<0.05), reaching their peaks in the age groups of 80-<85 years (341.37/105) and 85 years or above (355.97/105), respectively.
Conclusions
The incidence of lung cancer showed an upward trend, while the mortality showed a downward trend in Huangpu District from 2002 to 2019. Elderly men were the high-risk group for lung cancer incidence and mortality.

Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a 6-month Ba Duan Jin exercise program in improving the balance of community-dwelling older adults.Methods:A two arms, parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted in 1 028 community residents aged 60-80 years in 40 communities in 5 provinces of China. Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test.Results:A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95% CI: 2.23-3.88) points ( P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95% CI: 4.03-5.37) points ( P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement ( P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions:This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.

Secondary metabolites of medicinal plants are extremely important to human health because of their special pharmacological activities or efficacy. They are the main source of drugs, health care products, and cosmetics. As human beings continue to pursue health and longevity, the demand in the pharmaceutical market continues to grow. It becomes especially important to improve the production and quality of secondary metabolites of medicinal plants. Plant secondary metabolites are a kind of adaptation of plants to their environment and are the result of the interaction between plants and biotic and abiotic factors during the long-term evolution process. The production and accumulation of secondary metabolites in medicinal plants are mainly affected by plant genetic factors and environmental factors. Among them, light environment is extremely important for their synthesis. Therefore, light regulation has long been a research focus for many scholars in China and abroad. In this article, we the recent research progress on the effects of light regulation on the secondary metabolites of medicinal plants were reviewed, mainly focusing on the effects of light quality, light intensity and photoperiod, in order to provide theoretical basis and practical guidance for the efficient production of secondary metabolites with important pharmacological activities.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of severe acute kidney injury (AKI) in septic patients, and to establish an hour-specific prediction model.Methods:Based on the information of septic patients in the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-Ⅳ (MIMIC-Ⅳ) database, general information, comorbidities, vital signs, severity scoring system, laboratory indicators, invasive operations and medication use were recorded. The enrolled patients were randomized into a training set and a validation set according to a ratio of 7∶3. AKI was diagnosed according to the guidelines of Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome (KDIGO). Based on Lasso regression and Cox regression, the risk factors of severe AKI (AKI stage 2 and stage 3) in septic patients were analyzed and hour-specific prediction model were established. Consistency index (C-index), area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) and calibration curve were used to assess the predictive efficacy of the model.Results:A total of 20 551 septic patients were enrolled, including 14 385 patients in the training set and 6 166 patients in the validation set. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that atrial fibrillation [hazard ratio ( HR) = 1.266, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.150-1.393], heart failure ( HR = 1.348, 95% CI was 1.217-1.493), respiratory failure ( HR = 1.565, 95% CI was 1.428-1.715), heart rate ( HR = 1.004, 95% CI was 1.002-1.007), mean arterial pressure ( HR = 1.245, 95% CI was 1.126-1.377), lactic acid ( HR = 1.051, 95% CI was 1.025-1.077), simplified acute physiology score Ⅱ (SAPSⅡ, HR = 1.019, 95% CI was 1.016-1.023), serum creatinine ( HR = 1.171, 95% CI was 1.127-1.216), anion gap ( HR = 1.024, 95% CI was 1.010-1.038), serum potassium ( HR = 1.155, 95% CI was 1.079-1.236), white blood cell count ( HR = 1.006, 95% CI was 1.003-1.009) and furosemide use ( HR = 0.414, 95% CI was 0.368-0.467) were independently associated with severe AKI in septic patients (all P < 0.01). The above predictors were applied to construct an hour-specific prediction model for the occurrence of severe AKI in septic patients. The C-index of the prediction model was 0.723 and 0.735 in the training and validation sets, respectively. The AUC for the occurrence of severe AKI at 12, 24, and 48 hours were 0.795 (95% CI was 0.782-0.808), 0.792 (95% CI was 0.780-0.805), and 0.775 (95% CI was 0.762-0.788) in the training set, and the AUC were 0.803 (95% CI was 0.784-0.823), 0.791 (95% CI was 0.772-0.810), and 0.773 (95% CI was 0.752-0.793) in the validation set, respectively. The calibration curves of the two cohorts were in good agreement. Conclusion:The hour-specific prediction model effectively identifies high-risk septic patients for developing severe AKI within 48 hours, aiding clinicians in stratifying patients for early therapeutic interventions to improve outcomes.

Objective:To establish a nucleic acid detection and genotyping method for Mycoplasma pneumoniae ( Mp) based on nucleic acid in clinical samples. Methods:Through genomic comparison, the specific target sequences of Genotype 1 and Genotype 2 Mp strains were selected to design synthetic primers and probes, and a PCR detection and classification method for Mp dual fluorescent probe was established, and the specificity, accuracy, detection limit and repeatability of the method were evaluated. The established fluorescence PCR method was used to detect the nucleic acid of clinical specimens and compared with the reported fluorescent PCR methods. Results:The nucleic acid of 18 pathogens, including other species of Mycoplasma and common respiratory bacteria and viruses, which were closely related to the Mp species, were detected, and the results showed that there was no cross-reactivity. The accuracy of detection and typing of 90 Mp nucleic acid was 100%. The detection limits of Genotype 1 and Genotype 2 Mp samples were 1.0 copy/μl, and the experimental coefficient of variation of repeatability within groups and between groups was less than 2.5%. In the detection of 88 nucleic acid of clinical specimens, the Kappa value was 0.675 and the P value was 0.267 compared with the reported real-time PCR method, showing a high degree of agreement. Conclusions:The method for detecting and genotyping Mp in this study has high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, which can be applied to the monitoring and prevention and control of Mp in the disease control system of provinces and cities at all levels in China. This method promotes the improvement of the Mp prevention and control system in China, strengthens the surveillance ability, and is of great significance for the early warning and prediction of Mp.

ObjectiveTo establish the identification method of Dalbergiae Odoriferae Lignum(DOL) and its counterfeits by nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectrum(1H-NMR) combined with multivariate statistical analysis. Method1H-NMR spectra of DOL and its counterfeits were obtained by NMR, and the full composition information was established and transformed into a data matrix, and the detection conditions were as follows:taking dimethyl sulfoxide-d6(DMSO-d6) containing 0.03% tetramethylsilane(TMS) as the solvent, the constant temperature at 298 K(1 K=-272.15 ℃), pulse interval of 1.00 s, spectrum width of 12 019.23 Hz, the scanning number of 16 times, and the sampling time of 1.08 s. Similarity examination and hierarchical cluster analysis(HCA) were performed on the data matrix of DOL and its counterfeits, and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) was used to analyze the data matrix and identify the differential components between them. In the established OPLS-DA category variable value model, the category variable value of DOL was set as 1, and the category variable value of the counterfeits was set as 0, and the threshold was set as ±0.3, in order to identify the commercially available DOL. The OPLS-DA score plot was used to determine the types of counterfeits in commercially available DOL, and it was verified by thin layer chromatography(TLC). ResultThe results of similarity analysis and HCA showed that there was a significant difference between DOL and its counterfeits. OPLS-DA found that the differential component between DOL and its counterfeits was trans-nerolidol. The established category variable value model could successfully identify the authenticity of the commercially available DOL. The results of the OPLS-DA score plot showed that there were heartwood of Dalbergia pinnata and D. cochinchinensis in the commercially available DOL, and were consistent with the TLC verification results. ConclusionThere is a phenomenon that heartwood of D. pinnata and D. cochinchinensis are sold as DOL in the market. 1H-NMR combined with multivariate statistical analysis can effectively distinguish DOL and its counterfeits, which can provide a reference for the identification of them.
