Objective: To investigate the incidence trend of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) in Yantian District, Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province from 2008 to 2022, and the effects of age, period, and cohort on STDs incidence, so as to provide the basis for formulating control measures for STDs. Methods: Data of reported STDs cases (syphilis, gonorrhea, genital Chlamydia trachomatis infections, condyloma acuminatum and genital herpes) among population aged 15 to 64 years in Yantian District from 2008 to 2022 were collected through the Chinese Disease Control and Prevention Information System. The temporal and population distribution of STDs were descriptively analyzed. Trends in incidence of STDs were analyzed using average annual percent change (AAPC). Impacts of age, period and cohort on the incidence of STDs were analyzed by an age-period-cohort model. Results: A total of 6 156 cases of STDs aged 15 to 64 years were reported from 2008 to 2022, and the average annual incidence was 229.92/105. The overall incidence showed an upward trend (AAPC=2.409%, P<0.05), and an upward trend among females (AAPC=5.846%, P<0.05), but the trend was not statistically significant among males (AAPC=0.193%, P>0.05). The incidence of STDs showed an increasing trend followed by a decreasing trend with the increase of age. The incidence trend among males was consistent with the overall population, reaching its peak in the age group of 30 to 34 years (371.04/105), while the incidence among females showed an increasing trend with the increase of age, peaking in the age group of 60 to 64 years (442.15/105). Compared with 2013-2017, the incidence risk of STDs showed an increasing trend in 2018-2022 (RR=1.349, 95%CI: 1.217-1.495). Compared with the birth cohort of 1975-1979, the incidence risk of STDs in 1980-2005 birth cohort showed an increasing trend, with the highest incidence risk in 2000-2004 birth cohort (RR=4.178, 95%CI: 2.717-6.423). Conclusions The overall incidence of STDs among residents aged 15 to 64 years in Yantian District from 2008 to 2022 appeared a tendency towards a rise. Age, period and cohort all had impacts on the incidence, with a greater effect among females than males.

Objective To investigate the dietary patterns of rural residents in the high-incidence areas of esophageal cancer (EC), and to explore the clustering and influencing factors of risk factors associated with high-incidence characteristics. Methods A special structured questionnaire was applied to conduct a face-to-face survey on the dietary patterns of rural residents in Yanting county of Sichuan Province from July to August 2021. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the influencing factors of risk factor clustering for EC. Results There were 838 valid questionnaires in this study. A total of 90.8% of rural residents used clean water such as tap water. In the past one year, the people who ate fruits and vegetables, soybean products, onions and garlic in high frequency accounted for 69.5%, 32.8% and 74.5%, respectively; the people who ate kimchi, pickled vegetables, sauerkraut, barbecue, hot food and mildew food in low frequency accounted for 59.2%, 79.6%, 68.2%, 90.3%, 80.9% and 90.3%, respectively. The clustering of risk factors for EC was found in 73.3% of residents, and the aggregation of two risk factors was the most common mode (28.2%), among which tumor history and preserved food was the main clustering pattern (4.6%). The logistic regression model revealed that the gender, age, marital status and occupation were independent influencing factors for the risk factors clustering of EC (P<0.05). Conclusion A majority of rural residents in high-incidence areas of EC in Yanting county have good eating habits, but the clustering of some risk factors is still at a high level. Gender, age, marital status, and occupation are influencing factors of the risk factors clustering of EC.

Pharmacological perturbation studies based on protein-level signatures are fundamental for drug dis-covery.In the present study,we used a mass spectrometry(MS)-based proteomic platform to profile the whole proteome of the breast cancer MCF7 cell line under stress induced by 78 bioactive compounds.The integrated analysis of perturbed signal abundance revealed the connectivity between phenotypic behaviors and molecular features in cancer cells.Our data showed functional relevance in exploring the novel pharmacological activity of phenolic xanthohumol,as well as the noncanonical targets of clinically approved tamoxifen,lovastatin,and their derivatives.Furthermore,the rational design of synergistic inhibition using a combination of histone methyltransferase and topoisomerase was identified based on their complementary drug fingerprints.This study provides rich resources for the proteomic landscape of drug responses for precision therapeutic medicine.

Objective:To preliminarily evaluate the effects and analyze the influencing factors of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in severe burn patients complicated with acute kidney injury (AKI).Methods:This study was a retrospective case series study. From January 2010 to December 2020, 79 severe burn patients complicated with AKI who received CRRT and met the inclusion criteria were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University (the Third Military Medical University). The general data (the same below) of all patients were collected, including gender, age, body mass index, burn area, burn index, cause of injury, whether combined with inhalation injury, acute physiology and chronic health status evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score and sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SOFA) score on admission, admission time after burn, and time of AKI after admission. The total efficacy of CRRT, including overall effective rate, complete effective rate, partial effective rate, ineffective rate, and deterioration rate, creatinine, urea, cystatin C, and fluid overload rate before and after treatment, in-hospital mortality, predictive mortality based on Baux scoring model, the most common cause of death, and length of hospital stay were recorded. According to the effect of CRRT, the patients were divided into effective group (42 patients) and ineffective group (37 patients). The general information of patients, the time to initiate CRRT after the occurrence of AKI, the duration of CRRT, etiology of AKI, AKI stage before CRRT initiation, CRRT mode, anticoagulant type, and in-hospital mortality were compared between the two groups of patients. The independent influencing factors for CRRT in severe burn patients complicated with AKI were screened. According to the etiology of AKI, the patients were divided into prerenal group (22 patients) and renal group (57 patients). The general information of patients, the time to initiate CRRT after the occurrence of AKI, the duration of CRRT, and total efficacy of CRRT (except for the most common cause of death) were compared between the two groups of patients.Results:Among the 79 patients, 73 cases were male and 6 cases were female, with age of (46±14) years, body mass index of (24.0±2.9) kg/m 2, total burn area of (69±26)% total body surface area (TBSA), full-thickness burn area of (44±25)%TBSA, and burn index of 57 (36, 76). There were 36 cases of flame burns, 19 cases of electrical burns, 16 cases of hydrothermal burns, 6 cases of explosive burns, and 2 cases of chemical burns. Thirty-nine patients were complicated with inhalation injury. The APACHE Ⅱ score was 16 (12, 18) and the SOFA score was 11 (5, 13) on admission. The patients were admitted to the hospital on 0 (0, 2) d after burn, and AKI occurred on 0 (0, 6) d after admission. The overall effective rate of CRRT was 53.16% (42/79), the complete effective rate was 30.38% (24/79), the partial effective rate was 22.78% (18/79), the ineffective rate was 31.65% (25/79), and the deterioration rate was 15.19% (12/79). The creatinine and urea of patients after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment (with Z values of -3.26 and -2.54, respectively, P<0.05); there were no statistically significant differences in the cystatin C and fluid overload rate of patients before and after treatment ( P>0.05). The in-hospital mortality of patients was 17.72% (14/79), and the predictive mortality based on Baux scoring model was 75.10% (18.94%, 91.84%). The most common cause of death was multiple organ failure, and the length of hospital stay was 39.43 (11.52, 110.58) d. There were statistically significant differences in the full-thickness burn area, the duration of CRRT, and etiology of AKI of patients between effective group and ineffective group (with Z values of -1.99 and -2.90, respectively, χ2=5.58, P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the other indicators ( P>0.05). The etiology of AKI and full-thickness burn area were the independent influencing factors for CRRT in severe burn patients complicated with AKI (with odds ratios of 4.21 and 1.03, respectively, 95% confidence intervals of 1.20-14.80 and 1.00-1.05, respectively, P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the cause of injury, overall effective rate of CRRT, total burn area, burn index, admission time after burn, time of AKI after admission, the time to initiate CRRT after the occurrence of AKI, and predictive mortality based on Baux score model of patients between prerenal group and renal group (with χ2 values of 12.59 and 5.58, respectively, Z values of 2.46, 2.43, -2.43, -4.03, -3.01, and -2.31, respectively, P<0.05). Before treatment, urea and cystatin C of patients in renal group were significantly higher than those in prerenal group (with Z values of -2.98 and -2.77, respectively, P<0.05), and the liquid overload rate was significantly lower than that in prerenal group ( Z=-2.99, P<0.05); after treatment, the cystatin C of patients in renal group was significantly higher than that in prerenal group ( Z=-2.08, P<0.05); there were no statistically significant differences in the other indicators ( P>0.05). Conclusions:CRRT can significantly improve renal function, avoid fluid overload, and alleviate renal injury in severe burn patients complicated with AKI. Prerenal AKI is the main independent influencing factor leading to ineffective CRRT.

Objective:To explore the role and mechanism of P311 in the differentiation of mouse skin fibroblasts (Fbs) into myofibroblasts.Methods:The study was an experimental research. Six 2-day-old male C57BL/6 mouse were used to extract skin Fbs by enzymatic hydrolysis method and routinely cultured. The 1 st to 3 rd passage cells were taken and divided into empty vector group transfected with empty adenovirus and P311 group transfected with P311 high expression adenovirus, and P311+myocardin-related transcription factor A (MRTF-A) small interfering RNA (siMRTF-A) group transfected with P311 high expression adenovirus and siMRTF-A according to the random number table. After 72 h of culture, the cell proliferation vitality of cells in 3 groups was detected by cell counting kit 8, the protein expressions of MRTF-A, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), and serum response factor (SRF) in cells in 3 groups were detected by Western blotting, the collagen gel contraction assay was performed and the 72 h gel contraction rates in 3 groups were calculated. The sample numbers in the above experiments were all 3. The protein expressions of MRTF-A and SRF in cells, cytoplasm, and nucleus in cells in empty vector group and P311 group were detected by Western blotting, with sample number of 4. Results:After 72 h of culture, the cell proliferation vitality of cells in empty vector group, P311 group, and P311+siMRTF-A group was similar ( P>0.05). After 72 h of culture, compared with those in empty vector group, the protein expressions of MRTF-A, α-SMA, and SRF in cells in P311 group were significantly increased ( P<0.05), while the protein expressions of MRTF-A and SRF in cells in P311+siMRTF-A group were significantly decreased ( P<0.05). Compared with those in P311 group, the protein expressions of MRTF-A, SRF, and α-SMA in cells in P311+siMRTF-A group were significantly decreased ( P<0.05). The 72 h gel contraction rate showing cell contractility in P311 group was (84.8±6.2)%, which was significantly higher than (27.8±2.6)% in empty vector group and (24.7±3.2)% in P311+siMRTF-A group (with P values all <0.05). The 72 h gel contraction rates in empty vector group and P311+siMRTF-A group were similar ( P>0.05). After 72 hours of culture, the protein expressions of MRTF-A (with t values of 5.86 and 3.77, respectively, P<0.05) and SRF (with t values of 3.95 and 3.97, respectively, P<0.05) in cells and cytoplasm in P311 group were significantly higher than those in empty vector group, while the protein expressions of MRTF-A and SRF in the nucleus of cells were similar between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:P311 can promote the differentiation of fibroblasts into myofibroblasts through MRTF-A, and then participate in scar formation.

The current treatment of glioma is facing drug resistance,which limits the efficacy of traditional chemotherapy drugs.This study aims to explore the potential mechanisms of the trifluoromethylquinazoline compound(KZL204)against glioma.Through the Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)assay,we found that KZL204 significantly inhibits the growth of drug-resistant cancer cells,with a 48-hour half-maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50)of 3.63±0.38 μmol/L,which is significantly better than the positive control drug temozolomide(TMZ)(IC50 value of 81.67±5.49 μmol/L).Additionally,flow cytometry analysis showed that KZL204 treatment significantly increased the apoptosis rate of drug-resistant tumor cells and arrested the cell cycle at the G2/M phase.At the same time,the Transwell assay confirmed the inhibitory effect of KZL204 on the migration and invasion of drug-resistant cancer cells.Transcriptome analysis revealed 2 435 differentially expressed genes in drug-resistant cancer cells treated with KZL204,of which 1 320 were upregulated,and 1 115 were downregulated.KEGG and GO enrichment analysis showed that these differential genes were significantly enriched in apoptosis-related signaling pathways.Further bioinformatics prediction and Venn diagram analysis identified 35 potential core targets,with the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway being the most significant among the differentially expressed genes.Quantitative real-time PCR(RT-qPCR)experiments confirmed the downregulating effects of KZL204 on genes such as CREB3L1,CSF1,CXCL5,BCL3,and the upregulating effects on genes like FOS,LT A,PTGS2,MAP2K3.Immunoblotting experiments at the protein level also confirmed the impact of KZL204 on the expression of apoptotic proteins,including the upregulation of Bax,cleaved Caspase-3 protein,and the downregulation ofAKT,Bcl-2,Caspase-3,and Caspase-8 protein expression.In summary,KZL204 significantly inhibits the growth and metastasis of drug-resistant glioblastoma and induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest by regulating the PI3K-AKT and apoptosis-related signaling pathways,demonstrating its potential as a candidate drug against drug-resistant glioma.

Objective:To construct a C57BL/6 mouse model of simulating transurethral thulium laser vaporization prostatectomy.Methods:Twelve male C57BL/6 mice were selected to undergo transvesical vaporization resection of the urothelium covering the urethra of the prostate using thulium laser. The urethral tissue of the prostate was retrieved on the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th days after the surgery. HE staining was used to observe the process of re-epithelialization of the urethral wound of the prostate. Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was used to detect whether the re-epithelialized cells of the urethral wound of the prostate expressed urothelin Ⅲ (UPⅢ).Results:On the first day after surgery, HE staining showed complete destruction to the urothelium covering the urethra of the prostate, with a large amount of coagulative necrotic tissue on the wound surface, and IHC staining showed no expression of UPⅢ on the wound surface. On the 3rd day after surgery, HE staining showed that there were still no regenerated epithelial cells on the wound surface, with coagulation necrosis tissue significantly reduced, and the urethral cavity was clearly visible. And IHC staining showed no expression of UPⅢ on the wound surface. On the 5th day after surgery, HE staining showed 1-2 layers of regenerated epithelial cells lacking cell polarity on the wound surface, and IHC staining showed that the regenerated epithelial cells expressed UPⅢ. On the 7th day after surgery, HE staining showed 4-6 layers of polar regenerated epithelial cells on the wound surface, and IHC staining showed the multiple layers of regenerated epithelial cells expressing UPⅢ.Conclusions:Based on the simulation of transurethral thulium laser vaporization resection of the prostate, the thulium laser and ultra micro endoscope system were used to vaporize the urothelium covering the urethra of the prostate, and the process of urethral re-epithelialization of the prostate can be observed after surgery. The establishment of the C57BL/6 mouse model simulating thulium laser vaporization prostatectomy provides a new research platform for studying the mechanism of wound repair after prostatectomy.
