ObjectiveTo evaluate the field mosquito surveillance efficacy between the black box method and the light trap method. MethodsEight light traps and eight black boxes were placed in each of the eight field sites in Baoshan District of Shanghai, with a minimum distance of 10 meters between each traps. Surveillance was conducted twice a month from May to September 2023. ResultsThe total number of mosquitoes (273) and female mosquitoes (228) captured by the black box method were 0.795 and 0.774 times higher than those caught by the light trap method, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05) between the mosquito density (t=1.723 5, P=0.100 2) and the female mosquito density (t=1.805 9, P=0.101 1), and there was a correlation (P<0.001) between the mosquito density (r=0.942 7) and the female mosquito density (r=0.896 5). There were no significant differences in the composition ratio of mosquito species(χ2=0.100 1, P>0.05) and female mosquitoes(χ2=0.394 4, P>0.05) captured by black box and light trap methods. In four different habitats, the composition ratios of mosquito species captured by the black box and light trap methods were: hospitals (38.10% and 38.77%) > rural housing areas (36.26% and 37.61%) > parks (14.65% and 12.54%)> urban housing areas (10.99% and 11.08%), and the composition ratios of female mosquitoes captured by the black box and light trap methods were: rural housing areas (40.35% and 42.52%) > hospitals (37.72% and 36.05%) > parks (13.16% and 13.27%) > urban housing areas (8.77% and 8.16%). In different habitats, there was no significant difference in the composition ratio of mosquitoes captured by two monitoring methods(χ2=0.5987, P>0.05), and there was no significant difference in the composition ratio of female mosquitoes(χ2=0.2993, P>0.05). ConclusionWith widen application and fewer requirements for equipment, operation skills, and use cost the black box method can be interchanged with the light trap method for monitoring mosquito density, especially in disaster areas or remote areas with difficult in having access to electricity.

Chiral metal-organic frameworks(CMOFs)with enantiomeric subunits have been employed in chiral chemistry.In this study,a CMOF formed from 6-methoxyl-(8S,9R)-cinchonan-9-ol-3-carboxylic acid(HQA)and ZnCl2,{(HQA)(ZnCl2)(2.5H2O)}n was constructed as a chiral stationary phase(CSP)via an in situ fabrication approach and used for chiral amino acid and drug analyses for the first time.The{(HQA)(ZnCl2)(2.5H2O)}n nanocrystal and the corresponding chiral stationary phase were systematically characterised using a series of analytical techniques including scanning electron microscopy,X-ray diffraction,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,circular dichroism,X-ray photoelectron spectros-copy,thermogravimetric analysis,and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area measurements.In open-tubular capillary electrochromatography(CEC),the novel chiral column exhibited strong and broad enantioselectivity toward a variety of chiral analytes,including 19 racemic dansyl amino acids and several model chiral drugs(both acidic and basic).The chiral CEC conditions were optimised,and the enantioseparation mechanisms are discussed.This study not only introduces a new high-efficiency member of the MOF-type CSP family but also demonstrates the potential of improving the enantiose-lectivities of traditional chiral recognition reagents by fully using the inherent characteristics of porous organic frameworks.

Objective To investigate related influencing factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods A total of 252 patients with T2DM who were treated in Shanghai Baoshan Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from May 2021 to March 2022 were enrolled as subjects, and these patients were also included in Metabolic Management Center of China. According to the presence or absence of fatty liver disease, the patients were divided into simple T2DM group ( n =105) and T2DM+NAFLD group ( n =147). Related general data were analyzed, including sex, age, blood pressure, body height, body weight, neck circumference, triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, albumin/creatinine ratio in morning urine, thyroid stimulating hormone, uric acid, intrahepatic fat deposition, carotid intima-media thickness, and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity. The group t -test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups; the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the risk factors for T2DM with NAFLD, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the predictive value of related influencing factors. Results The age-stratified analysis showed that in the < 50 years age group, compared with the patients with T2DM alone, the patients with T2DM and NAFLD had significantly higher levels of body mass index (BMI), visceral fat, TG, brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity, albumin/creatinine ratio in morning urine, and uric acid ( P < 0.05); in the ≥50 years age group, compared with the patients with T2DM alone, the patients with T2DM and NAFLD had significantly higher levels of blood pressure, BMI, visceral fat, TG, brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity, albumin/creatinine ratio in morning urine, and uric acid ( P < 0.05) and a significantly lower level of serum HDL-C ( P < 0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that BMI (odds ratio [ OR ]=1.408, 95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 1.136-1.746, P =0.002), HDL-C ( OR =0.031, 95% CI : 0.001-0.647, P =0.025), left brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity ( OR =1.003, 95% CI : 1.001-1.006, P =0.003), and uric acid ( OR =1.011, 95% CI : 1.005-1.016, P < 0.001) were independent influencing factors for T2DM with NAFLD. The ROC curve analysis showed that HDL-C, BMI, left brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity, and uric acid had an area under the ROC curve of 0.695 (95% CI : 0.574-0.812), 0.708 (95% CI : 0.628-0.788), 0.611 (95% CI : 0.523-0.698), and 0.698 (95% CI : 0.617-0.779), respectively, in evaluating T2DM with NAFLD. Conclusion Low levels of HDL-C, BMI, left brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity, and uric acid have a certain value in predicting NAFLD in patients with T2DM.

The biological samples of oral genetic diseases and rare diseases are extremely precious. Collecting and preserving these biological samples are helpful to elucidate the mechanisms and improve the level of diagnose and treatment of oral genetic diseases and rare diseases. The standardized construction of biobanks for oral genetic diseases and rare diseases is important for achieving these goals. At present, there is very little information on the construction of these biobanks, and the standards or suggestions for the classification and coding of biological samples from oral and maxillofacial sources, and this is not conducive to the standardization and information construction of biobanks for special oral diseases. This consensus summarizes the background, necessity, principles, and key points of constructing the biobank for oral genetic diseases and rare diseases. On the base of the group standard "Classification and Coding for Human Biomaterial" (GB/T 39768-2021) issued by the National Technical Committee for Standardization of Biological Samples, we suggest 76 new coding numbers for different of biological samples from oral and maxillofacial sources. We hope the consensus may promote the standardization, and smartization on the biobank construction as well as the overall research level of oral genetic diseases and rare diseases in China.

BACKGROUND:
The literature recommends that reduced dosage of CPT-11 should be applied in patients with UGT1A1 homozygous mutations, but the impact of UGT1A1 heterozygous mutations on the adverse reactions of CPT-11 is still not fully clear.
METHODS:
A total of 107 patients with UGT1A1 heterozygous mutation or wild-type, who were treated with CPT-11 from January 2018 to September 2021 in Peking University Third Hospital, were retrospectively enrolled. The adverse reaction spectra of patients with UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*28 mutations were analyzed. Adverse reactions were evaluated according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) 5.0. The efficacy was evaluated according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1. The genotypes of UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*28 were detected by digital fluorescence molecular hybridization.
RESULTS:
There were 43 patients with UGT1A1*6 heterozygous mutation, 26 patients with UGT1A1*28 heterozygous mutation, 8 patients with UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*28 double heterozygous mutations, 61 patients with heterozygous mutation at any gene locus of UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*28. Logistic regression analysis showed that the presence or absence of vomiting (P=0.013) and mucositis (P=0.005) was significantly correlated with heterozygous mutation of UGT1A1*28, and the severity of vomiting (P<0.001) and neutropenia (P=0.021) were significantly correlated with heterozygous mutation of UGT1A1*6. In colorectal cancer, UGT1A1*6 was significantly correlated to diarrhea (P=0.005), and the other adverse reactions spectrum was similar to that of the whole patient cohort, and efficacy and prognosis were similar between patients with different genotypes and patients treated with reduced CPT-11 dosage or not.
CONCLUSIONS
In clinical use, heterozygous mutations of UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*28 are related to the risk and severity of vomiting, diarrhea, neutropenia and mucositis in patients with Pan-tumor and colorectal cancer post CPT-11 therpy. In colorectal cancer, UGT1A1*6 is significantly related to diarrhea post CPT-11 use, efficacy and prognosis is not affected by various genotypes or CPT-11 dosage reduction.

Chinese Journal of Medical Aesthetics and Cosmetology 2021;27(2):94-96
Objective:To study the clinical effect of modified autogenous fat grafting for sunken upper eyelid in order to simplify surgical methods and to reduce complications.Methods:From January 2014 to May 2018, fifty-five patients with sunken upper eyelid were enrolled in this study. The traditional autologous fat filling injection was modified in present study, and the previous injecting method of large columnar fat mass in the deep subcutaneous layer of upper eyelid was modified; instead, small fat particles were injected into the superficial layer of subcutaneous tissue. After treatment the clinical efficacy and complications were evaluated.Results:Fifty-five patients were followed up for more than eight months, among which forty-seven patients were satisfied with the results and the depression of upper eyelid was significantly improved. However, postoperative complications were found in seven patients, including three patients encountered asymmetry, three patients presented upper-eyelid swelling, one patient had a nodule in the eyelid, and one patient suffered both swelling and asymmetry. The complications rate was 14.5%.Conclusions:Modified autologous fat transplantation is an ideal method for cosmetic repair of sunken upper eyelid, which is easy to operate and can effectively reduce the incidence of complications. However, some complications such as swelling, asymmetry and nodule in the upper eyelid still occur occasionally.

Objective:To develop an R script that can efficiently and accurately filter genome-wide association studies (GWASs) from the GWAS Catalog Website.Methods:The selection principles of GWASs were established based on previous studies. The process of manual filtering in the GWAS Catalog was abstracted as standard algorithms. The R script (gwasfilter.R) was written by two programmers and tested many times.Results:It takes six steps for gwasfilter.R to filter GWASs. There are five main self-defined functions among this R script. GWASs can be filtered based on "whether the GWAS has been replicated" "sample size" "ethnicity of the study population" and other conditions. It takes no more than 1 second for this script to filter GWASs of a single trait.Conclusions:This R script (gwasfilter.R) is user-friendly and provides an efficient and standard process to filter GWASs flexibly. The source code is available at github ( https://github.com/lab319/gwas_filter).
