Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of different doses of apatinib combined with chemotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and the adverse reactions.Methods:A total of 69 patients with NSCLC diagnosed in the No. 901 Hospital of the Chinese People′s Liberation Army Joint Logistics Support Force were selected from January 2018 to June 2020, and were divided into chemotherapy alone group (docetaxel+ cisplatin was used), apatinib group A [apatinib (0.25 g)+ docetaxel+ cisplatin was used] and apatinib group B [apatinib (0.50 g)+ docetaxel+ cisplatin was used] according to random number table method, with 23 cases in each group. The objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), median overall survival (OS), median progression-free survival (PFS), and incidences of adverse reactions were compared between the three groups of patients.Results:One patients in the apatinib group B withdrew from the study due to acute myocardial infarction. After 4 cycless of treatment, the ORR of the patients in the chemotherapy alone group, apatinib group A and apatinib group B were 17.39% (4/23), 47.83% (11/23) and 54.55% (12/22) respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=7.41, P=0.024). The ORR of the apatinib group B was higher than that of the chemotherapy alone group, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=6.77, P=0.009). There were no statistically significant differences in ORR between the apatinib group A and chemotherapy alone group, the apatinib group A and apatinib group B ( χ2=4.85, P=0.028; χ2=0.20, P=0.652). The DCR of the patients in the three groups were 47.83% (11/23), 78.26% (18/23) and 86.36% (19/22) respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=9.03, P=0.011). The DCR of the apatinib group B was higher than that of the chemotherapy alone group, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=7.52, P=0.006). There were no statistically significant differences in DCR between the apatinib group A and the chemotherapy alone group, the apatinib group A and apatinib group B ( χ2=4.57, P=0.033; χ2=0.51, P=0.477). The median OS of the patients in the three groups were 6.8, 9.2 and 9.9 months respectively, with a statistically significant different ( χ2=8.91, P=0.022). Compared with the chemotherapy alone group, the median OS of the apatinib group A and apatinib group B were significantly prolonged, with statistically significant differences ( χ2=7.25, P=0.036; χ2=8.60, P=0.029). Compared with the apatinib group A, the median OS of the apatinib group B was prolonged, but there was no statistically significant different ( χ2=1.54, P=0.201). The median PFS of the patients in the three groups were 5.2, 7.7 and 8.2 months respectively, with a statistically significant different ( χ2=8.79, P=0.026). Compared with the chemotherapy alone group, the median PFS of the apatinib group A and apatinib group B were significantly prolonged, with statistically significant differences ( χ2=7.01, P=0.039; χ2=8.36, P=0.031). Compared with the apatinib A group, the median PFS of the apatinib group B was prolonged, but there was no statistically significant different ( χ2=1.68, P=0.186). There were statistically significant differences in the incidences of fatigue [34.78% (8/23) vs. 65.22% (15/23) vs. 72.73% (16/22), χ2=7.50, P=0.024], hypertension [4.35% (1/23) vs. 34.78% (8/23) vs. 68.18% (15/22), χ2=20.07, P<0.001], hand-foot syndrome [4.35% (1/23) vs. 43.48% (10/23) vs. 72.73% (16/22), χ2=22.28, P<0.001] and oral mucositis [8.70% (2/23) vs. 39.13% (9/23) vs. 72.73% (16/22), χ2=19.26, P<0.001] among the three groups. Compared with the chemotherapy alone group, the incidences of hypertension and hand-foot syndrome in the apatinib group A and the incidences of fatigue, hypertension, hand-foot syndrome and oral mucositis in the apatinib group B were increased, with statistically significant differences ( χ2=6.77, P=0.009; χ2=9.68, P=0.002; χ2=6.51, P=0.011; χ2=20.00, P<0.001; χ2=22.37, P<0.001; χ2=19.21, P<0.001). Conclusion:Apatinib (0.50 g) combined with chemotherapy has better short-term efficacy than chemotherapy alone in advanced NSCLC. Apatinib (0.25 g) and apatinib (0.50 g) can prolong the survival of patients, but increasing the treatment dose can not achieve longer survival benefit.

Objective:To understand the iodine nutrition states of children in Dongtai City Jiangsu Province by analyzing the urinary iodine level of children aged 0 - 12 years old (prepubescent children), so as to provide scientific reference for prepubescent children's reasonable iodine nutrition intake.Methods:Under the guidance of the "National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Monitoring Program" (2016), Dongtai City was divided into 5 districts according to the east, west, south, north and middle locations. In each district, children aged 0 - 7 years old who underwent physical examination in township hospitals and prevention and health centers were selected to collect urine samples for urine iodine testing. One township was selected from each district, and one primary school was selected from each township. At least 90 children aged 8 to 12 (half boys and half girls) were selected from each primary school to collect urine samples for urine iodine testing. The urinary iodine levels of children of different genders, ages and regions were compared and analyzed.Results:A total of 2 934 urine samples were collected. The median of urinary iodine was 191.9 μg/L, ranging from 1.4 to 627.9 μg/L, the proportion of urine iodine content < 50 μg/L was 5.5% (162/2 934), the proportion of 50 - 99 μg/L was 10.9% (319/2 934), the proportion of 100 - 199 μg/L was 37.4% (1 096/2 934), the proportion of 200 - 299 μg/L was 28.3% (829/2 934), and the proportion of ≥300 μg/L was 18.0% (528/2 934). A total of 1 535 and 1 399 urine samples of boys and girls were collected. The medians urinary iodine of boys and girls were 202.3 and 177.7 μg/L, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z = - 5.487, P < 0.05). There were 106, 1 539, 753 and 536 cases of infants (0 - 12 months old), early childhood (1 - 3 years old), preschool children (4 - 6 years old), and school-age children (7 - 12 years old), the medians urinary iodine were 169.8, 189.6, 169.9 and 243.7 μg/L, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( H = 127.395, P < 0.05). There were 642, 699, 422, 738 and 433 cases in different regions (east, west, south, north and middle) and the medians urinary iodine were 194.2, 172.7, 196.8, 200.5 and 196.6 μg/L, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( H = 29.461, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Children aged 0 - 12 years old in Dongtai City are not deficient in iodine on the whole, but those with urinary iodine value higher than 200 μg/L account for a large proportion. Therefore, a reasonable iodine nutrition plan should be implemented according to the actual situation. In addition, individual iodine deficiency and excess should also be paid attention to.

Maize is one of the most important food crops. Rice black-streaked dwarf virus is a maize rough dwarf disease pathogen. The occurrence and transmission of maize rough dwarf disease brings great damage to maize production. The technology of using artificial miRNA to build antiviral plant has been proven effective in a variety of plants. However, such trials in maize have not been reported. We designed primers based on the sequence of maize zea-miR159a precursor and sequence of function protein genes and silencing RBSDV coding genes in RBSDV genome. We constructed amiRNA (artificial miRNA) gene for silencing RBSDV coding gene and gene silencing suppressor. We constructed pCAMBIA3301-121-amiRNA plant expression vector for transforming maize inbred lines Z31 by using agrobacterium mediated method. After molecular analysis of transgenic maize, homozygous lines with high miRNA expression were selected by molecular detection for a subsequent natural infection experiment. We studied the severity of maize rough dwarf disease according to a grading standard (grade 0 to 4). The experiment results showed that the disease resistance of transgenic homozygous maize with the anti-rough dwarf virus amiRNA vector was better than that of wild type. Among the transgenic maize, S6-miR159 transgenic maize had high disease resistance. It is feasible to create new maize variety by the use of artificial miRNA.

Objective To explore the method of Oncomelania hupensis snail surveillance in transmission?interrupted re?gions of schistosomiasis,so as to provide a new pattern for the surveillance of snail status in the transmission?interrupted areas. Methods In Dongtai County,north of Jiangsu Province where the transmission of schistosomiasis was interrupted,the surveil?lance of snail status was performed by means of the village?level general survey,village?level sampling survey,snail survey in key settings of township and county,and snail reporting by residents. In addition,quality?control snail sites were set up for quali?ty control. The effectiveness and cost of the four methods of snail surveillance was compared. Results A total of 163 079 set?tings and 22 785.62 hm2 were surveyed in Dongtai County from 2008 to 2013,and 89 residual snail breeding sites were found, with a snail area of 1.48 hm2. The patterns of village?level general survey,village?level sampling survey,and snail survey in key settings of township and county were employed for investigation of 94 550,45 033 and 23 496 settings,consisting of 57.98%, 27.61%and 14.41%of total settings,and 2,0 and 6 settings were found with snails,with 0.021/thousand,0,and 0.255/thou?sand detection rates of settings with snail breading sites,respectively. The pattern of snail survey in key settings of township and county was more effective than that of village?level survey to detect snail breeding sites(χ2 =19.158,P=0). The recovery rate of quality?control snail breeding sites was 52.56%,38.27%and 73.62%for the three patterns of snail survey,respectively,and the pattern of snail survey in key settings of township and county showed a higher quality for snail survey than that of village?lev?el survey(χ2 =111.597 and 85.991,both P=0). During the period from 2008 to 2013,289 person?times reported 279 sus?pected snail habitats and 1 501 living snails,and no Oncomelania snails were found. During the 6?year period,there were 1617.5,964.7 and 527.7 thousand RMB invested for village?level general survey,village?level sampling survey,and snail sur?vey in key settings of township and county,and the cost of snail survey per hm2 was 129.88,133.6 and 162.57 RMB/hm2,re?spectively. The cost of village?level general survey and snail survey in key settings of township and county to detect a snail?breed?ing site was 808 800 and 88 000 RMB,respectively(t=12.850,P=0.000),and the cost of snail survey in key settings of town?ship and county was 10.88%of that of village?level general survey. Conclusion The snail survey in key settings of township and county is a highly effective and high?quality method for snail surveillance,which may serve as a prior way for the surveil?lance of snail status in the transmission?interrupted areas of schistosomiasis.
