Objective:To investigate the effect of altitude on the risk of pre-eclampsia (PE).Methods:This cross-sectional study included 19 246 pregnant women who delivered in Gansu Provincial Hospital from January 2016 to December 2020. General clinical data, pregnancy outcomes and neonatal outcomes were collected. The diagnosis of PE was based on the disease diagnosis coding of medical record information system and the Chinese guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (2020). According to the altitude of residence, the subjects were divided into low altitude group (9 931 cases), middle altitude group (9 068 cases) and high altitude group (247 cases). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the relationship between altitude and the risk of PE, after adjusting for confounding factors such as age, ethnicity, mode of conception, gestational diabetes mellitus, and hemoglobin level.Results:(1) Among the 19 246 pregnant women, 752 (3.91%, 752/19 246) were diagnosed with PE. The incidence of PE in the low altitude group, middle altitude group and high altitude group was 2.95% (293/9 931), 4.91% (445/9 068) and 5.67% (14/247), respectively. With the increase of living altitude, the incidence of PE increased significantly ( P<0.001). (2) The results of univariate logistic analysis showed that compared with the low altitude area, the risk of PE in pregnant women living in the middle altitude area and high altitude area increased by 70% ( OR=1.70, 95% CI: 1.46-1.97; P<0.001) and 98% ( OR=1.98, 95% CI: 1.14-3.43; P=0.016). (3) The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after fully adjusting for confounding factors, the risk of PE increased by 40% for every 500 meters of elevation ( OR=1.40, 95% CI: 1.25-1.57; P<0.001). Compared with those living in low altitude areas, the risk of PE in pregnant women living in middle altitude and high altitude areas increased by 72% ( OR=1.72, 95% CI: 1.47-2.00; P<0.001) and 100% ( OR=2.00, 95% CI: 1.07-3.74; P=0.030). Conclusion:In the high-altitude environment of Gansu Province, the risk of PE gradually increases with the increase of altitude.

Dry eye disease (DED) is a prevalent and intractable ocular disease induced by a variety of causes. Elevated sphingomyelin (SM) levels and pro-inflammatory cytokines were detected on the ocular surface of DED patients, particularly in the meibomian glands. Sphingomyelin synthase 2 (SMS2), one of the proteins involved in SM synthesis, would light a novel way of developing a DED therapy strategy. Herein, we report the design and optimization of a series of novel thiophene carboxamide derivatives to afford 14l with an improved highly potent inhibitory activity on SM synthesis (IC_{50, SMS2} = 28 nmol/L). Moreover, 14l exhibited a notable protective effect of anti-inflammation and anti-apoptosis on human corneal epithelial cells (HCEC) under TNF-α-hyperosmotic stress conditions in vitro, with an acceptable ocular specific distribution (corneas and meibomian glands) and pharmacokinetics (PK) profiles (t _{1/2, cornea} = 1.11 h; t _{1/2, meibomian glands} = 4.32 h) in rats. Furthermore, 14l alleviated the dry eye symptoms including corneal fluorescein staining scores and tear secretion in a dose-dependent manner in mice. Mechanically, 14l reduced the mRNA expression of Tnf-α, Il-1β and Mmp-9 in corneas, as well as the proportion of very long chain SM in meibomian glands. Our findings provide a new strategy for DED therapy based on selective SMS2 inhibitors.

Objective To establish macrosomia risk prediction models based on a cohort study, and to analyze and compare the results. Methods The research subjects were the pregnant women of the Chinese Pregnant Women Cohort Study. The general demographic information and clinical data of pregnant women were collected through the questionnaire and physical examination, and the related outcomes of newborns were obtained by follow-up. The dataset was divided into training set and test set by a 3:1 ratio. Multivariate logistic regression analysis (LR) and random forest algorithm (RF) were used to construct macrosomia risk prediction models in the training set, and the models were verified in the test set. The prediction efficiency of the models was evaluated by Kappa and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Results Among 5544 pregnant women, 397 women delivered macrosomia, and the incidence of macrosomia was 7.16%. Among the pregnant women who delivered macrosomia, 10.08% (40/397) were over 35 years old, 27.46% (109/397) were overweight or obese, and 60.96% (242/397) were excessive gestational weight gain (GWG). LR was used to establish a macrosomia risk prediction model to predict the test set, with the accuracy of 0.716, the sensitivity of 0.719, the specificity of 0.715, the Kappa value of 0.428, the Yoden index of 0.393, and the AUC of 0.796 (95% CI: 0.777-0.815). RF was used to construct a risk prediction model to predict the test set, with the accuracy of 0.819, the sensitivity of 0.782, the specificity of 0.846, the Kappa value of 0.629, the Yoden index of 0.439, and the AUC of 0.897 (95% CI: 0.883-0.910). Conclusion The prediction effect of the two models is satisfactory. The random forest algorithm has a higher predictive effect on the risk of macrosomia in this cohort, but the multivariate logistic regression analysis can directly explain the influencing factors of the macrosomia. It is suggested to integrate the advantages of the two models in the future, so that they can play a more important role in macrosomia risk prediction.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the association of interaction of noise exposure and superoxide dismutase( SOD) gene polymorphism on the susceptibility of occupational noise-induced hearing loss( ONHL) in Chinese Han population.METHODS: A simple random sampling method was used to select 2 400 Han workers as study subjects.These workers were exposed to 75.0-120.0 dB( A) of normalized continuous A-weighted sound with pressure level equivalent to a 40 hworking-week( L_(EX,W)) in Guangzhou City.A model method was set up to define 201 sensitive workers( sensitive group)and 202 resistant workers( resistant group) by combining results with hearing pure tone threshold test and the cumulative noise exposure( CNE).The genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood cells.The single nucleotide polymorphisms analysis of SOD was carried out by using the TaqMan probe with chemical fluorescence allelic identification test.Binary logistic regression method was used to analyze the interaction of noise exposure and SOD.RESULTS: After adjusting confounding factors such as gender,heavy metal exposure,dust exposure and high temperature exposure,the risk for ONHL in individuals interactively carry rs2040724 AG or GG and rs4880( CC + CT) was significantly higher than that in individuals interactively carry rs2040724 AA and rs4880 TT( P < 0.05).The risk for ONHL in individuals interactively carry rs10432782 GT or GG and rs4880( CC + CT) was significantly higher than that in individuals interactively carry rs10432782 TT and rs4880 TT( P < 0.05).The risk for ONHL in individuals exposed to L_(EX,W)≥85 dB( A) and interactively carried with rs2040724 GG and rs4880( CC + CT) was significantly higher than that in individuals exposed to L_(EX,W)< 85 dB( A) and interactively carry rs2040724 AA and rs4880 TT( P < 0.01).The risk for ONHL in individuals exposed to L_(EX,W)≥85 dB( A) and interactively carry rs10432782 GT or GG and rs4880( CC + CT) was significantly higher than that in individuals exposed to L_(EX,W)< 85 dB( A) and interactively carry r10432782 TT and rs4880 TT( P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: In Chinese Han population,noise exposure intensity and SOD1( rs2040724,rs10432782),SOD2( rs4880)gene polymorphism had interacting effects on ONHL susceptibility.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics, temporal trend of silicosis, and provide basis for risk assessment and precise prevention and control of occupational diseases. Methods: Using descriptive statistics to analyze the reported cases of silicosis by SPSS 20.0 software. Reported silicosis cases, the constituent ratio, the incidence age and the working age at onset were analyzed by a linear trend test. Analyzing the variation trends of regional, industry, economic type and enterprise scale distributions by the chi-square trend test. Moreover, using Moran's I method for spatial autocorrelation analysis and trend-surface analysis. Results: (1) During 2006 to 2015, Guangdong province had reported 1, 428 cases of silicosis, mainly gathered in Foshan, Zhongshan, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, which included 1391 male cases accounting for 97.41%. And the average incidence age was 45 (39, 51) . The average working age of onset was 9 (5.5, 15) . In economic type distribution, the private economy took the main part, accounting for 59.1%. In enterprise scale distribution, it was dominated by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) , accounting for 32.4% and 37.3% respectively. In industry distribution, most cases were gathered in materials and mining industry, accounting for 32.1% and 22.9% respectively. (2) The number of silicosis cases, the incidence age and the working age of onset showed a rising trend (P<0.01) . Meanwhile, the constituent ratios of medium-sized enterprises and building materials industry were increasing (P<0.05) . The annual variation trends of regional, economic type and age distributions were not statistically significant (P> 0.05) . (3) The spatial distribution trend showed an inverted U type, which was firstly raised and then declined from south to north and from east to west. The distribution characteristic demonstrated some high-high cluster areas, including Chancheng, Nanhai, Shunde, Panyu, Dongguan, Pengjiang, and Zhongshan. While Wuhua showed a high-low outlier form (P<0.01) . Conclusion Silicosis cases, age and working age of onset were on the rise, as well as the industry and enterprise scale distributions of occupational diseases presented a certain trend in Guangdong province from 2006 to 2015. There were high-high cluster and high-low outlier phenomena in spatial distribution with spatial correlation. Therefore, our work of silicosis epidemic trend and distribution may provide some bases for the occupational disease risk assessment and control.
