Objectives:To present the epidemiological characteristics of stroke incidence and stroke-related mortality among the whole population in national cardiovascular disease surveillance areas from 2015 to 2019. Methods:Data of stroke incidence and stroke-related mortality from 2015 to 2019 were collected from the China Registry of Cardiovascular Events(China RACE),which was established in 2014,covering 100 counties(cities,districts)in 31 provinces in China.The Joinpoint model was used to analyze the annual percentage changes(APC)and trends of stroke incidence rate.The age-standardized incidence rate(ASIR)was calculated using the Seventh National Census data as the standard population.With annual reported stroke events and stroke-related deaths,the mortality to incidence ratio(M/I)were examined. Results:From 2015 to 2019,an increase of 9.41%(APC=2.12%,95%CI:1.43%-2.82%,Ptrend<0.01)resulted in the overall stroke crude incidence rate(CIR)of 468.48/100 000 in 2019 among the whole population,with relatively higher in male and in rural area.The more sharply elevating of CIR appeared in males(11.26%[APC=2.53%,95%CI:1.83%-3.24%,Ptrend<0.01])rather than in females(7.26%[APC=1.63%,95%CI:0.81%-2.46%,Ptrend<0.01]).Meanwhile,the general ASIR decreased 7.47%(APC=-1.72%,95%CI:-3.23%--0.20%,Ptrend<0.05),reaching 523.82/100 000 in 2019.The females generally showed significant descending trend(9.56%[APC=-2.27%,95%CI:-3.99%--0.52%,Ptrend<0.05]),as well as more reduction than that in the males(15.82%vs.11.40%)in urban area.The crude incidence rate of stroke increased with age.From 2015 to 2019,the CIR in 45-49 age group increased 12.48%(APC=3.18%,95%CI:1.67%-4.72%,Ptrend<0.01),compared with an reduction of 15.76%(APC=-4.39%,95%CI:-7.63%--1.04%,Ptrend<0.05)in 80-84 age group.Over the monitoring years,the overall M/I was 0.19,with an age-specific U-shaped distribution.The lowest of M/I(0.10)appeared in those aged 50-54 and 55-59,while the highest(0.45)detected in those aged 85 and over.The M/I of all age in urban areas were consistently lower than that in rural areas. Conclusions:Stroke incidence burden increased from 2015-2019 in the national surveillance areas in China,along with the unfavorable geographic diversity and age-specific divergence.Further efforts are required to improve health care covering all ages and regions in China to reduce the incidence of stroke and stroke-related mortality.

Objectives:The present study aims to investigate the incidence and mortality feature of acute myocardial infarction(AMI)from 2015 to 2019 in China by utilizing national registry data. Methods:Data of AMI incidence and mortality in the surveillance area during 2015 to 2019 were abstracted from China Registry of Acute Cardiovascular Event(China RACE),which was established in 100 counties from 31 provincial regions in China.Incidence rate,age standardized incidence rate(ASIR)and mortality to incidence ratio(M/I)was estimated in AMI cases.A Joinpoint regression was executed and annual percent change(APC)was examined to identify trends in incidence. Results:From 2015 to 2019,a total of 257 686 acute myocardial infarction incidence and 149 169 deaths were registered.The annual incidence rate of AMI in 2019 was 82.76 per 100 000.Over the study period,the incidence rate of AMI increased by 6.05%for men(APC=1.30%,95%CI:0.56%to 2.02%)but decreased by 11.80%for women(APC=-3.10%,95%CI:-4.54%to-1.68%),resulting a steady trend for AMI crude incidence rate for the overall population.The overall ASIR of AMI declined by 16.59%(APC=-4.32%,95%CI:-5.32%to-3.34%)from 113.68 per 100 000 in 2015 to 94.82 per 100 000 in 2019.The ASIR of AMI declined by 11.04%(APC=-2.72%,95%CI:-3.78%to-1.67%)for men,23.96%(APC=-6.56%,95%CI:-8.57%to-4.58%)for women,12.57%(APC=-3.08%,95%CI:-6.01%to-0.08%)for the urban areas,and 19.24%(APC=-5.18%,95%CI:-10.19%to 0.03%)for rural areas respectively.The incidence rate of AMI increases gradually with age in both men and women.The incidence of AMI in urban men of 35-44 and 45-54 year age groups increased by 77.16%(APC=13.52%,95%CI:3.29%to 24.57%)and 26.36%(APC=5.71%,95%CI:-0.95%to 12.68%)over time.However,the incidence of AMI fell in the population above 65 year old,by 26.58%(APC=-6.68%,95%CI:-11.98%to-1.01%),19.85%(APC=-5.64%,95%CI:-11.57%to 0.65%)and 14.53%(APC=-4.44%,95%CI:-7.75%to-1.04%)in the 65-74 year age,75-84 year age and≥85year age groups respectively from 2015 to 2019.The mortality to incidence ratio of AMI was 0.58 over time,higher in women than in men,and higher in rural areas than in urban areas.The M/I ratio of AMI decreased from 0.62 in 2015 to 0.52 in 2019(APC=-4.28%,95%CI:-5.75%to-2.83%).There was a declined trends in M/I of AMI in urban residents of both male and female,and in the rural male residents(all P<0.05),while a steady trend in the rural female residents(P>0.05). Conclusions:The overall incidence of AMI remains steady during 2015 to 2019 in the national surveillance areas in China.Yet,downward trends in elder and female residents and increased trend in middle-aged urban males in AMI incidence are observed.The mortality of AMI in these period are age,sex and urban-rural dependent.Targeted mitigation strategies on AMI prevention and treatment need to be strengthened to reduce its incidence and mortality.

Objective:To assess the trends in case-fatality rates for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in China from 2015 to 2019.Methods:This study employed a population-based surveillance. Data from the China Registry of Acute Cardiovascular Event (China RACE) were utilized, including AMI cases reported by Grade Ⅱ and Grade Ⅲ hospitals at the disease surveillance sites across China from January 1 st 2015 to December 31 st 2019. The 28-day mortality outcome for reported AMI events was obtained by linking to the national death certificate registry system. The study analyzed the overall and age-standardized case-fatality rates, as well as their annual percent change (APC), during the study period, stratified by gender, age, and region. Results:The overall 28-day case fatality rate for AMI was 28.97% (22 532/77 764) from 2015 to 2019. The age-standardized case-fatality rate for AMI declined significantly from 37.53% in 2015 to 18.58% in 2019, with an APC of -14.33% ( P=0.018). We observed a significant downward trend in case-fatality rates of AMI in both genders (both P<0.05). Among males, the case-fatality rate decreased more steeply in younger males compared to elder counterparts. The most marked decreases were seen in males aged<35 years and 35 to 44 years, with APC of -27.63% ( P=0.007) and -22.65% ( P=0.004), respectively. In females, we observed a relatively stable decrease in case-fatality across age groups. The age-standardized case-fatality rate of AMI in eastern and central China decreased significantly from 2015 to 2019, with the APC of -19.22% ( P=0.006) and -15.62% ( P=0.032) respectively. However, the age-standardized case-fatality rate of AMI in western China remained stable ( P=0.227). Conclusions:The prognosis of AMI has considerably improved from 2015 to 2019 in China, regardless of ages and gender. Inequality in case-fatality rates among geographic regions highlights the need for targeted strategies in AMI prevention in western regions.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2023;44(2):167-172
Abstract
Allergic diseases can occur in all systems of the body, covering the whole life cycle, from children to adults and to old age, can be lifelong onset and even fatal in severe cases. Children account for the largest proportion of the victims of allergic disease, Children s allergies start from scratch, ranging from mild to severe, from less to more, from single to multiple systems and systemic performance, so the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases in children is of great importance, which can not only prevent high risk allergic conditions from developing into allergic diseases, but also further block the process of allergy. At present, there is no consensus on the management system of allergic children in kindergartens and primary schools. The "Consensus on Allergy Management and Prevention in Kindergartens and Primary Schools", which includes the organizational structure, system construction and management of allergic children, provides evidence informed recommendations for the long term comprehensive management of allergic children in kindergartens and primary schools, and provides a basis for the establishment of the prevention system for allergic children.

Objective:To select human chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cell line K562 as the experimental object, and use lentivirus mediated CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology to construct a stable CML cell line K562/TCRP1-KO that knocks out the tongue cancer resistance related protein 1 (TCRP1) gene; and through functional tests such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, and drug sensitivity, compare the phenotypic differences between K562/TCRP1-KO and control cells (K562/cas9-CTL), and preliminarily explore the possible mechanism of TCRP1 gene involvement in the pathogenesis of CML.Methods:The small guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting TCRP1 was designed at a specific location. After annealing, the oligonucleotide fragments were recombined with the linearized Cas9 expression vector, and the lentivirus packaging system was transfected into 293T cells. The purified virus was collected and infected with K562 cells. Positive polyclons were screened for puromycin pressure, and monoclonal K562/TCRP1-KO was further screened by limited dilution method. Stable cell lines were successfully knocked out by sanger sequencing and Western blot detection; Simultaneously, K562 cells transfected with lentiCRISPR vector were constructed as control cell lines (K562/cas9-CTL); Using cell counting method, cell counting kit 8 (CCK8) method, imatinib (IM) gradient dilution method, and flow cytometry cell proliferation, drug sensitivity, and apoptosis analysis were performed on K562/TCRP1-KO and K562/cas9-CTL, respectively.Results:The sgRNA-Cas9 recombinant plasmid vector for TCRP1 knockout was successfully constructed, and after transfection into 293T cells, TCRP1 knockout monoclonal cell lines were successfully screened using limited dilution method. Compared with K562/cas9-CTL cells, the proliferation ability of K562/TCRP1-KO cells was significantly reduced, IM drug sensitivity was significantly enhanced, and the process of cell apoptosis was significantly accelerated (all P<0.05). Conclusions:A CML cell line with TCRP1 knockout was successfully constructed using CRISPR/Cas9. TCRP1 may act as a cancer related gene to affect the proliferation, IM resistance, and apoptosis process of CML cells.
