Objective:To establish a sensing technology of catalytic hairpin self-assembly (CHA) combining with clustered interspaced short palindromic repeats with associated protein 12a (CRISPR-Cas12a) for the detection of exosomal microRNA-21 (miR-21), and to analyze the performance.Methods:Eight patients diagnosed as breast cancer in the First Affiliated Hospital of the Army Military Medical University from September to October 2023 were selected as the breast cancer group; 8 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations during the same period were selected as the healthy control group. Plasma exosomes and their miR-21 were extracted using the kit. DNA hairpins and CRISPR RNA sequences were designed for miR-21 sequences. The feasibility of detection technology was validated using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and fluorescence spectrophotometer. Hairpins concentration, CHA reaction time, Cas12a protein concentration and Cas12a protein reaction time were further optimized. On this basis, miR-21 was detected at different concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0 nmol/L), and fluorescence intensity was collected for unary linear regression analysis to evaluate methodological sensitivity; meanwhile, different types of miRNAs (miR-31, miR-26a, miR-192, miR-25-3p) and blank controls were detected to evaluate methodological specificity. A case-control study was conducted to detect the relative expression level of plasma exosomal miR-21 in breast cancer group and healthy control group using this detection technology and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) to evaluate the detection ability of clinical samples.Results:A detection method for exosomal miR-21 was established using CHA combining with CRISPR-Cas12a. The concentration of miR-21 detected by this method showed a good linear relationship with fluorescence intensity (the linear correlation coefficient 0.966 7), and the linear detection range was 0.1-10.0 nmol/L, and the detection limit was 87.81 pmol/L. The fluorescence intensity of miR-21 was 450.27±23.96 which was higher than that of miR-31, miR-26a, miR-192, miR-25-3p, and the blank group (98.89±7.35, 98.12±2.07, 98.93±2.45, 96.66±2.45, 82.93±3.54, respectively), with statistical significance ( P<0.001). The results of RT-PCR showed that the relative expression levels of plasma exosomal miR-21 in the breast cancer group were higher than that in healthy control group (1.83±0.27 vs 0.93±0.12, P<0.001); CHA combining with CRISPR-Cas12a detection technology showed that the relative expression levels of plasma exosomal miR-21 in breast cancer group were higher than that in healthy control group (1.94±0.21 vs 0.98±0.08, P<0.001); There was no significant difference in the relative expression levels of plasma exosomal miR-21 between CHA combining with CRISPR-Cas12a detection technology and reverse transcription PCR in breast cancer group and healthy control group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:In this study, a highly sensitive and specific sensing technology of CHA combining with CRISPR-Cas12a for exosomal miR-21 was established. The results of detecting plasma exosomal miR-21 were consistent with the results of reverse transcription PCR, which can be used for screening of breast cancer patients.

Objective:To analyze epidemiological characteristics and spatiotemporal clustering of hepatitis A in China from 2005 to 2023.Methods:The incidence data of hepatitis A in China during 2005-2023 were collected from the China Disease Control and Prevention Information System .Results:From 2005 to 2023, a total of 605 509 cases of hepatitis A were reported in China. The average annual reported incidence rate was 2.32/100 000, the incidence was 2.85/100 000 in men and 1.81/100 000 in women, and the incidence was 3.25/100 000 in age group 0-14 years, 2.10/100 000 in age group 15-64 years and 2.49/100 000 in age group ≥65 years , respectively. The case count in farmers was highest (40.57%, 245 639/605 509). The proportion of the cases in jobless or the unemployed increased most obviously (347.32%), and the proportion of the cases in students decreased most significantly (90.27%). The average annual reported incidence rate in the western China was highest (4.45/100 000), followed by that in northeastern China (2.02/100 000), central China (1.89/100 000) and eastern China (1.16/100 000). From 2020 to 2023, the incidence of hepatitis A showed no spatial clustering. From 2005 to 2019, the obvious hot spots and high-high clustering areas mainly distributed in provinces, such as, Sichuan, Qinghai, Xinjiang, Xizang and Gansu. The low-low clustering areas were mainly distributed in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian, Henan, Anhui, Jiangxi, Jilin and Liaoning. An independent high-low clustering was found in Shanxi during 2014-2019. A total of 5 high incidence clustering areas were detected through spatiotemporal scanning analysis.Conclusions:The incidence rate of hepatitis A in China declined significantly from 2005 to 2023. The reported incidence rate in the elderly showed no obvious decrease, and the reported cases accounted for the highest proportion in the whole population. Before 2020, the reported incidence rate of hepatitis A showed high-high clustering in western China, the spatiotemporal clustering disappeared from 2020 to 2023, but the reported incidence rate of hepatitis A in western China was still high. It is suggested to pay attention to the prevention and control of hepatitis A in populations at high risk and areas with high incidence of hepatitis A.

Objective:To investigate the disability status of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in China and to identify the influencing factors of the inflammatory bowel disease disability index (IBD-DI).Methods:From October 1 to December 31, 2021, a total of 1 170 IBD patients were recruited from 7 IBD centers and WeChat public platforms in China. All the patients were surveyed by the IBD-DI questionnaire, which included demographic information, disease activity, medication history, treatment and surgical history. Demographic information included gender, age, income status, etc. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of IBD-DI.Results:Among the 1 170 IBD patients, 746 patients (63.76%) were male and 424 patients (36.24%) were female; there were 871 cases (74.44%) of Crohn′s disease(CD), 277 cases (23.68%) of ulcerative colitis (UC) and 22 cases (1.88%) of inflammatory bowel disease undassified (IBDU). The age was 36.00 years old (29.00 years old, 45.00 years old), and the IBD-DI score was 9.00 (5.00, 15.00). The results of multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the disease activity ( β=0.65, t=22.33, P<0.001), current treatment with enteral nutrition ( β=0.09, t=3.06, P<0.001), and history of perianal surgery ( β=0.06, t=2.12, P=0.034) were influencing factors of IBD-DI in the CD patients. Disease activity ( β=0.65, t=14.37, P<0.001), household per capita annual income ( β=-0.16, t=-3.59, P<0.001), current usage of immunosuppressants ( β=0.12, t=2.66, P=0.008), current treatment with enteral nutrition ( β=0.12, t=2.57, P=0.011), and the duration of each exercise ( β=-0.12, t=-2.67, P=0.008) were influencing factors of IBD-DI in UC patients. Conclusions:Disability is common in Chinese IBD patients, and their IBD-DI were different. Disease activity is the most important factor affecting IBD-DI. The IBD-DI is higher in IBD patients receiving enteral nutrition treatment, CD patients with a history of perianal surgery and UC patients with current usage of immunosuppressants. However, household per capita annual income and the duration of each exercise are negatively correlated with IBD-DI in UC patients.

AIM:From the perspective of regulating mitochondrial complex I activity by DJ-1 protein,this study aims to explore the mechanism of DJ-1-mediated resveratrol(RES)preconditioning in protecting against oxidative stress injury induced by myocardial ischemia-reperfusion(I/R)in rats.METHODS:After intramyocardial injection of lentivirus carrying DJ-1 shRNA(sh-DJ-1)or negative control(NC)shRNA,the myocardial I/R model was constructed by ligating the left anterior descending branch of the rat coronary artery.Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided in-to 6 groups:sham group,I/R group,RES+I/R group,NC+RES+I/R group,sh-DJ-1+RES+I/R group,and IACS-010759(mitochondrial complex I inhibitor)+RES+I/R group,with 10 rats in each group.The rats in RES treatment groups were given RES(20 mg/kg)via gavage for 7 d prior to the myocardial I/R modeling,once daily.Moreover,the rats in sham and I/R groups received an equivalent volume of normal saline via gavage.Myocardial infarction area and cardiac function were assessed by TTC staining and echocardiography,respectively.The MitoSOX fluorescent probe was used to detect levels of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species(ROS)in the myocardium.The levels of malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dis-mutase(SOD)and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)in the serum were detected using kits.Western blot and co-immunopre-cipitation assays were used to observe the interaction between DJ-1 and the two subunits,ND-1 and NDUFA4,of the mito-chondrial complex I.RESULTS:Compared with I/R group,RES pretreatment significantly reduced the myocardial in-farction area,mitochondrial ROS levels,serum LDH activity,and serum MDA content(P＜0.01).It also elevated left ventricular ejection fraction,left ventricular fractional shortening and serum SOD activity(P＜0.01).Pretreatment with RES increased the expression and mitochondrial translocation of DJ-1(P＜0.01),promoted the interaction between DJ-1 and ND-1/NDUFA4,which in turn protected the activity of mitochondrial complex I(P＜0.01).However,when the ex-pression of DJ-1 was suppressed,the protective effects of RES against myocardial I/R injury were significantly inhibited compared with RES+I/R group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).CONCLUSION:Pretreatment with RES increases the expression and mitochondrial translocation of DJ-1,and facilitates the interaction of DJ-1 with ND1 and NDUFA4 subunits of mito-chondrial complex I,thus preserving the activity of mitochondrial complex I and attenuating myocardial I/R-induced oxida-tive stress damage.

Objective: To clinically validate the feasibility and accuracy of cine images acquired through the multitasking method, with no electrocardiogram gating and free-breathing, in measuring left ventricular (LV) function indices by comparing them with those acquired through the balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP) method, with multiple breath-holds and electrocardiogram gating. Materials and Methods: Forty-three healthy volunteers (female:male, 30:13; mean age, 23.1 ± 2.3 years) and 36 patients requiring an assessment of LV function for various clinical indications (female:male, 22:14; 57.8 ± 11.3 years) were enrolled in this prospective study. Each participant underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using the multiple breath-hold bSSFP method and free-breathing multitasking method. LV function parameters were measured for both MRI methods. Image quality was assessed through subjective image quality scores (1 to 5) and calculation of the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) between the myocardium and blood pool. Differences between the two MRI methods were analyzed using the Bland–Altman plot, paired t-test, or Wilcoxon signed-rank test, as appropriate. Results: LV ejection fraction (LVEF) was not significantly different between the two MRI methods (P = 0.222 in healthy volunteers and P = 0.343 in patients). LV end-diastolic mass was slightly overestimated with multitasking in both healthy volunteers (multitasking vs. bSSFP, 60.5 ± 10.7 g vs. 58.0 ± 10.4 g, respectively; P < 0.001) and patients (69.4 ± 18.1 g vs. 66.8 ± 18.0 g, respectively; P = 0.003). Acceptable and comparable image quality was achieved for both MRI methods (multitasking vs. bSSFP, 4.5 ± 0.7 vs. 4.6 ± 0.6, respectively; P = 0.203). The CNR between the myocardium and blood pool showed no significant differences between the two MRI methods (18.89 ± 6.65 vs. 18.19 ± 5.83, respectively; P = 0.480). Conclusion Multitasking-derived cine images obtained without electrocardiogram gating and breath-holding achieved similar image quality and accurate quantification of LVEF in healthy volunteers and patients.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of sweroside on the protection of cardiac systolic/diastolic function during ischemia/reperfusion （I/R） injury. MethodTwenty-four healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into control group， model group， 10 μmol·L^-1 sweroside group and 1 μmol·L^-1 digoxin group. The I/R injury was modeled by Langendorff and ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. The infarct size in each group was measured by 2，3，5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride （TTC） staining and hemodynamic parameters such as left ventricular diastolic pressure （LVDP）， left ventricular end-diastolic pressure （LVEDP）， left ventricular end-systolic pressure （LVESP）， maximum rate of rising of left ventricular pressure （+dp/dt_max） and maximum rate of decreasing of left ventricular pressure （-dp/dt_max） of rat isolated heart were detected by Powerlab. In addition， neonatal rat cardiomyocytes （NRCMs） were isolated and randomly divided into control group， model group， 1 μmol·L^-1 sweroside group and 10 μmol·L^-1 sweroside group. Hypoxia/reoxygenation （H/R） injury model was established. Cardiac systolic function and calcium transients were examined by multi-functional cell imaging analyzer and laser confocal microscope. Furthermore， real-time polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR） was used to verify the mRNA expression of excitation-contraction coupling genes such as L-type calcium channel （Cacnb2）， cytochrome c oxidase subunit 6A2 （Cox6a2）， troponin （Tnnc1， Tnni3， Tnnt2）， actin （Actc1）， and myosin （Myh6， Myl2， Myl4） according to the results of previous transcriptome sequencing and literature investigation. Differentially expressed genes were subjected to cluster analysis. ResultCompared with the conditions in the control group， increased cardiac infarction size （P<0.01） and LVEDP （P<0.01） and decreased LVDP （P<0.01） and LVESP （P<0.05） were observed in the model group， with +dp/dt_max of increasing trend while -dp/dt_max decreasing. Moreover， the cell viability， heart rate and contraction amplitude of NRCMs was reduced （P<0.01）， while the contraction duration， time to peak and relaxation time was elevated （P<0.01） in the model group. Interestingly， sweroside could reverse these indicators （P<0.05）. In addition， the expression of Cacnb2， Cox6a2， Tnnc1， Tnni3， Tnnt2， Actc1， and Myh6， Myl2， and Myl4 was down-regulated in the model group （P<0.05， P<0.01）， but sweroside could up-regulate the expression of the above genes （P<0.05）. ConclusionSweroside effectively regulated Ca²⁺ level in NRCMs， enhanced cardiac systolic function， and protected against H/R injury by regulating excitation-contraction coupling.
