Objective:To investigate the differences in hippocampal subfield volumes and structural covariance network properties among patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) exhibiting different cognitive outcomes and normal controls (NCs), and to further evaluate the predictive value of these imaging indicators for cognitive deterioration in MCI patients.Methods:A total of 43 NCs, 65 stable MCI (sMCI), and 26 progressive MCI (pMCI) patients enrolled in the Alzheimer′s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) database between December 2012 and May 2016 were included in this study. Baseline demographic information and T 1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging scans were collected. Hippocampal subfield volumes were extracted using freesurfer software, and structural covariance networks of hippocampal subfields were constructed. Multivariate analysis of covariance was used to compare hippocampal subfield volumes among the 3 groups. A general linear model was applied to examine group differences in hippocampal subfield structural covariance network properties. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO)-Logistic regression was employed to identify imaging predictors associated with conversion to Alzheimer′s disease (AD), based on which structural, network-based, and combined predictive models were constructed. Model discrimination was evaluated using the area under the curve (AUC); internal validation was performed using Bootstrap resampling; model calibration was assessed with the Hosmer-Lemeshow test; and clinical utility was evaluated through decision curve analysis.

Objective:To investigate the alterations of individual metabolic brain network properties in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and their correlations with cognitive function.Methods:One hundred and five participants from Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) database enrolled from March 2012 to February 2016 were chosen, including 61 MCI patients and 44 normal controls (NC). Cognitive assessments, including mini-mental state examination (MMSE), auditory verbal learning test (AVLT), trail making test (TMT), and semantic verbal fluency (SVF) score, were performed in both groups; differences of above scores and clinical data between the participants from the two groups were compared. T1-weighted imaging and fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) images were collected in both groups; individual metabolic brain networks were constructed based on differences in effect sizes between brain regions and network properties were calculated. Spatial correlation analysis was used to compare the correlations of metabolic brain networks at the individual and group levels. General linear model was employed to compare the differences in network properties between the two groups. Partial correlation analysis was used to examine the correlations of differential network properties with cognitive function in MCI patients. A support vector machine (SVM) classification model was constructed based on individual metabolic brain network properties, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to explore the diagnostic value of this SVM classification model in MCI.Results:(1) Compared with the NC group, the MCI group had significantly lower MMSE and AVLT-immediate recall scores, and longer TMT-A completion time ( P<0.05). (2) Spatial correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation between individual metabolic brain networks and group-level metabolic brain networks in patients of the MCI group ( r=0.825, P<0.001). No significant differences in global network properties were noted between the two groups ( P>0.05). Compared with the NC group, the MCI group significantly decreased degree centrality in the left A8vl, right A39c, and right V5/MT+ regions, increased degree centrality in the left anterior cuneus, decreased nodal efficiency in the left A8vl, right V5/MT+, and right caudal hippocampus regions, increased nodal shortest path length and nodal clustering coefficient in the left A8vl region ( P<0.05). (3) The degree centrality at the A8vl of ventral part of the left middle frontal gyrus and nodal efficiency in right caudal hippocampus region were positively correlated with AVLT-immediate recall scores ( r=0.331, P=0.010; r=0.282, P=0.030), nodal efficiency in the left A8vl region was negatively correlated with TMT-A completion time ( r=-0.470, P<0.001), and nodal efficiency in the left A8vl region was positively correlated with SVF score ( r=0.263, P=0.044). (4) Area under the curve of SVM classification model in diagnosing MCI was 0.880 (95% CI: 0.813-0.945, P<0.001), with an accuracy rate of 0.790. Conclusions:Patients with MCI have alterations in individual metabolic brain network properties, among which the degree centrality and nodal efficiency of some nodes are closely related to cognitive function changes. Models constructed based on individual metabolic brain network properties can help to effectively diagnose MCI.

Objective:To analyze the health fitness and its influencing factors among urban elderly residents in Lanzhou city.Methods:A multi-stage sampling method was used to survey urban elderly residents in Lanzhou city with self-designed questionnaire from July 17th to August 3rd, 2020. The questionnaire included general information, life habits and Healthy Fitness Measurement Scale Version 1.0 (HFMS V 1.0), a total of 1 124 questionnaires were distributed and 1 124 were collected, including 1 043 valid questionnaires (92.8%). The HFMS V 1.0 was scored with Likert 5-point scale, positive and negative scoring method. The health fitness status of the subjects was divided into low, medium and high levels according to the norms of HFMS V 1.0 for Chinese urban elderly residents. The influencing factors were analyzed by using the chi-square test and ordinal logistic regression.Results:The conversion score of HFMS V 1.0 for the urban elderly residents in Lanzhou city was 61.99±14.20, and the physical fitness score was the lowest (57.84±16.98); of the 1 043 subjects, 332 (31.83%), 360 (34.52%) and 351 (33.65%) subjects were classified with low, medium, and high health fitness levels, respectively. Chronic diseases and poor dietary habits were the risk factors for the health fitness of urban elderly residents in Lanzhou city (both P<0.05); more adequate sun exposure, physical exercise, sufficient sleep, high self-health concern and high frustration quotient were protective factors for health fitness in those subjects (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The overall level of health fitness in urban elderly residents in Lanzhou city is moderate, and chronic disease, dietary habits, sun exposure, physical exercise, length of sleep, self-health concern and frustration quotient are the main influencing factors.

Objective:To rapidly evaluate the level of healthcare resource demand for laboratory testing and prevention and control of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in different epidemic situation, and prepare for the capacity planning, stockpile distribution, and funding raising for infectious disease epidemic response.Methods:An susceptible, exposed, infectious, removed infectious disease dynamics model with confirmed asymptomatic infection cases and symptomatic hospitalized patients was introduced to simulate different COVID-19 epidemic situation and predict the numbers of hospitalized or isolated patients, and based on the current COVID-19 prevention and control measures in China, the demands of resources for laboratory testing and prevention and control of COVID-19 were evaluated.Results:When community or local transmission or outbreaks occur and total population nucleic acid testing is implemented, the need for human resources is 3.3-89.1 times higher than the reserved, and the current resources of medical personal protective equipment and instruments can meet the need. The surge in asymptomatic infections can also increase the human resource demand for laboratory testing and pose challenge to the prevention and control of the disease. When vaccine protection coverage reach ≥50%, appropriate adjustment of the prevention and control measures can reduce the need for laboratory and human resources.Conclusions:There is a great need in our country to reserve the human resources for laboratory testing and disease prevention and control for the response of the possible epidemic of COVID-19. Challenges to human resources resulted from total population nucleic acid testing and its necessity need to be considered. Conducting non-pharmaceutical interventions and encouraging more people to be vaccinated can mitigate the shock on healthcare resource demand in COVID-19 prevention and control.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for invasiveness of hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HC).Methods The retrospective casecontrol study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 65 HC patients who were admitted to the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital from January 2012 to November 2017 were collected.Patients received DW MRI before treatment,and 2 senior imaging doctors analyzed imaging data and measured the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) for the primary lesions of HC.Observation indicators:(1) MRI situations of HC;(2) relationship between ADC and clinicopathological factors;(3) receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis;(4) treatment and follow-up situations.According to patients' conditions,treatment plans were done within 2 weeks after MRI and patients underwent radical resection of HC.Follow-up using telephone interview was performed to detect tumor recurrence up to December 2017.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as (x)±s,and comparisons between group and among group were respectively analyzed using the t test and one-way ANOVA.Spearman's rank correlation was performed to analyze the relationship between ADC and clinicopathological factors.ROC curves assessed the diagnostic efficiency of ADC.Results (1) MRI situations of HC:MRI and magnetic resonanced cholangio-pancreatography (MRCP) in 65 patients showed varying degrees of soft rattan-like dilations of intrahepatic bile ducts and truncation signs of bile tracts in hepatic port.Of 65 patients,tumors in 23,7 and 35 patients were respectively pedunculated type,polypoid type and infiltrating type.The pedunculated-type lesions of 23 patients presented as low signal on T1WI and slightly high signal on T2WI;after enhanced scans of MRI,pedunculated-type lesions of 7 patients demonstrated moderate homogenous enhancement in 3 patients,ring-like enhancement with internal liquefaction necrosis in 10 patients and moderate heterogeneous enhancement in 10 patients,respectively.The polypoid-type lesions presented as low signal on T1WI and high signal on T2WI,and moderate homogenous enhancement by enhanced scans of MRI.There were varying degrees of bile duct wall thickness and irregular nodules in the infiltrating-type lesions of 35 patients,showing moderate enhancement by enhanced scans of MRI.All the lesions of 65 patients using DW MRI demonstrated restricted diffusion,showing a clear boundary between lesions and normal surrounding bile ducts or liver tissues;heterogeneous enhancement lesions by MRI scans presented as heterogeneously high signal on DWI and heterogeneously low signal on ADC map,and necrotic area of lesions showed low signal on DWI;homogenous enhancement by MRI scans presented as homogenously high signal on DWI and homogenously low signal on ADC map.(2) Relationship between ADC and clinicopathological factors:ADC was respectively (1.382±0.165)× 10-3 mm2/s,(1.343±0.138)× 10-3 mm2/s,(1.291-±0.226)×10-3 mm2/s,(1.111±0.243)×10-3 mm2/s in stage Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ (TNM staging) and (1.441± 0.355) × 10-3 mm2/s,(1.226 ± 0.177) × 10-3 mm2/s,(1.061 ± 0.228) × 10-3 mm2/s in highdifferentiated,moderate-differentiated and low-differentiated tumors (pathological grading) and (1.403±0.176)× 10-3 mm2/s,(1.121±0.238)× 10-3 mm2/s in Ki-67 score ≤ 10％ and ＞ 10％ and (1.115±0.241)× 10-3 mm2/s,(1.347±0.174)× 10-3 mm2/s in HC patients with and without lymph node metastasis,with statistically significant differences in the above indicators (F =4.158,9.866,t =11.607,13.464,P＜0.05).Results of Spearman's rank correlation analysis showed that ADC had a negative correlation with TNM staging,pathological grading and Ki-67 score (r=-0.532,-0.522,-0.409,P＜0.05).(3) ROC curve analysis:using 1.225×10-3 mm2/s as a critical value of ADC,the sensitivity and specificity of ADC in the diagnosis of stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ HC and stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ HC were 70.5％ and 81.0％,and area under ROC curve was 0.705 (95％CI:0.62-0.84,P＜0.05).Using 1.100×10-3 mm2/s as a critical value of ADC,the sensitivity and specificity of ADC in the diagnosis of lowdifferentiated HC and moderate-and high-differentiated HC were 88.2％ and 64.3％,and area under ROC curve was 0.814 [95％ confidence interval (CI):0.69-0.90,P＜0.05].Using 1.243×10-3 mm2/s as a critical value of ADC,the sensitivity and specificity of ADC in the diagnosis of Ki-67 score ≤ 10％ and ＞ 10％ were 66.7％ and 75.0％,and area under ROC curve was 0.783 (95％CI:0.62-0.90,P＜0.05).Using 1.222×10-3 mm2/s as a critical value of ADC,the sensitivity and specificity of ADC in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis were 91.3％ and 71.4％,and area under ROC curve was 0.873 (95％CI:0.76-0.94,P＜0.05).(4) Treatment and followup situations:65 patients underwent successful radical resection of HC.Thirty-three patients were followed up for 1-24 months.Of 33 patients,5 had tumor recurrence within 6 months postoperatively,including 4 with ADC ＜ 1.100× 10-3 mm2/s,13 had tumor recurrence after 6 months postoperatively,and 15 didn't have tumor recurrence or metastasis,including 1 with ADC ＜ 1.100× 10-3 mm2/s.Conclusions There are different ADC in differentTNM staging,pathological grading,Ki-67 score and with or without lymph node metastasis of HC.ADC of DWMRI can be used as a preoperative imaging predictor for invasiveness of HC.

Objective To study the inhibitory effect of aspirin on proliferation of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cell line and its possible mechanismt. Methods MTT assay and plate cloning experiments was used to detect proliferation of human hepatoma HepG2 cells. Effects of aspirin on autophagosomes in HepG2 cells were detected by acridine orange fluorescence staining. The expression of adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) protein in human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells was detected by Western blot. Results 10 mmol/L concentration of aspirin could inhibit the proliferation of HepG2 cells, but increase the number of autophagosomes of HepG2 cells, increase AMPK expression, decrease mTOR expression. After combination treatemnt with 40 μmol/L autophagy inhibitor chloroquine (CQ), CQ could enhance the inhibitory effect of 10 mmol/L aspirin on proliferation of human hepatoma HepG2 cells. Conclusion Combination treatment with autophagy inhibitor CQ attenuates 10 mmol/L aspirin-induced autophagy thus enhance its anti-HepG2 effect.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application value of transesophageal atrial pacing (TEAP) combined with atropine load experiment in the diagnosis of the lesions of sinoatrial node and atrioventricular node.Methods One hundred and forty-four cases selected from the outpatient and hospitalized patients in the People's Hospital of Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture from September 2009 to December 2012,who with dizziness, syncope and other clinical symptoms and electrocardiogram showe.TEAP combined with atropine load experiment were given to these patients.Results (1) The authors detected in all patients,83 cases (57.6％) were positive, among which, 48 cases (57.8％) male, 35 cases (42.2％) female.(2) The authors detected 57 cases(39.6％) non-increased vagus nerve tension cases in 83 positive cases,among which 33 cases (57.9％) male, 24 cases (42.1％) female;Among which 29 cases (20.1％) were sinoatrial node hypofunction, and 16 cases(55.2％) male;8 cases(5.6％) were atrioventricular node hypofunction,and 4 cases(50％) male;14 cases(9.7％) were double node hypofunction, and 10 cases (71.4％) male;6 cases (4.2％) were tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome, and 3 cases (50％) male;among which, a long interval of greater than 3 seconds appeared when we stimulate one 84 years old man with S1S1 stimulate way, immediately pressed protective pacemaker until his own sinus rhythm was restored, as a safety precaution, stoped further examination and classified him as sick sinus group.Conclusion Detect the common causes of slow sinus and atrioventricular block,such as the sinoatrial node dysfunction, atrioventricular node dysfunction, double node dysfunction and increased vagus nerve tension through TEAP combined with atropine load experiment.Consider that this methods have the best diagnostic value in decreasing its rate of false positivity,and should be used as a necessary check before implantation of pacemaker in such patients, suitable used in clinical, especially in basic general hospitals.
