bjective　To analyze the drug resistance screening status and drug resistance influencing factors of high-risk groups of drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis in Qingdao, and to understand the inclusion of rifampicin patients in treatment, so as to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods　The medical records of 726 cases of drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis among high-risk populations registered in Qingdao from 2018 to 2022 were obtained from the National Health Insurance Information System of the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The drug resistance to five anti-tuberculosis drugs, namely isoniazid (INH), rifampicin (RFP), ethambutol (EMB), levofloxacin (Lfx), and amikacin (Am), in the high-risk populations of drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis was analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used toidentify factors influencing rifampicin resistance, and the detection and inclusion of treatment for rifampicin-resistant patients were evaluated. Results　Of the 726 subjects, 278 were drug-resistant, with a total drug resistance rate of 38.29%. The drug resistance for the five anti-tuberculosis drugs in descending order was: INH 25.90%(188/726), RFP 22.87%(166/726), Lfx 14.19%(103/726), EMB 11.29%(82/726), Am 2.48%(18/726). Analysis of the drug resistance spectrum showed that among those resistant to one drug, RFP was most common, accounting for 13.67% (38/278); among those resistant to two drugs, INH+RFP was predominant, accounting for 15.83% (44/278); among those resistant to three drugs, INH+RFP+Lfx was most frequent, at 7.19% (22/278); and among those resistant to four drugs, INH+RFP+EMB+Lfx was highest, at 6.12% (17/278). Multivariate logistic regression analysis of rifampicin resistance showed that compared with patients under 25 years of age, the risk of developing rifampicin resistance was lower in the groups aged 45 to under 65 and those aged 65 and above (OR=0.356, 95%CI: 0.181-0.700; OR=0.352, 95%CI: 0.170-0.729). Compared with migrant patients in other provinces, local patients from within the same county or district had a lower risk of developing rifampicin resistance (OR=0.599, 95%CI:0.383-0.962). Compared with patients who were smear-positive at the end of the second month of initial treatment, the risk of developing rifampicin resistance was higher in patients with relapse/return, failure of retreatment/chronic, and other categories of patients (OR=9.380, 95%CI:3.717-23.671;OR=25.749, 95%CI:8.037-82.490; OR=36.651, 95%CI:8.438-159.201). Conclusions　The situation of drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis in Qingdao cannot be ignored. Individuals under 25 years old, migrants from other provinces, and patients with relapse/return, failure of retreatment/chronic, and other categories are significant risk factors for developing rifampicin resistance in the high-risk groups of drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis.

Objective:To understand the commercial homosexual behavior characteristics of men who have sex with men (MSM) and the factors associated with unprotected anal intercourse (UAI) in this population, and provide reference for the development of intervention strategy in MSM.Methods:Men who were aged ≥16 years and had anal sex with men in the past 6 months were recruited through internet in Fuzhou from January to December 2023 for a cross-sectional study with a sample size of 283. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors associated with the incidence of UAI in the past 6 months in MSM. The SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:In 4 484 MSM, the proportion of those with commercial homosexual behaviors was 9.59% (430/4 484), the average age was (27.00±9.07) years. In the MSM with commercial homosexual behaviors, 70.00% (301/430) had anal sex in the past one week, and 43.02% (185/430) had anal sex with more than 10 partners in the past 6 months. The proportion of MSM with UAI was 75.58% (325/430) in the past 6 months. The results of multivariate analysis showed showed that in MSM with commercial homosexual behaviors in the past 6 months, compared with those who were students, age >18 years at the first sexual intercourse, had not anal sex in the past one week, and anal sex with less than 10 partners in the past 6 months, the risk for UAI was higher in those who were not students (a OR=1.99,95% CI:1.18-3.36), those who were aged ≤18 years at first sexual intercourse sex (a OR=2.04,95% CI:1.26-3.29), those who had anal sex in the past one week (a OR=2.04,95% CI:1.25-3.33), and those who had anal sex with more than 10 partners in the past 6 months (a OR=1.97,95% CI:1.16-3.35). Conclusions:The risk for UAI was high in MSM with commercial homosexual behaviors in Fuzhou, so it is necessary to improve the awareness of safe sex and promote sex with regular partners and condom use, and preventing drug abuse in MSM.

Objective To discuss the nursing cooperation method in CT-guided pulmonary nodule localization using indocyanine green combined with methylene blue.Methods A total of 81 patients,who needed to receive pulmonary nodule localization before thoracoscopic resection,were enrolled in this study.The nursing cooperation measures,including the preparation and injection of indocyanine green combined with methylene blue,breathing mode coordination,position management,precise localization coordination,and psychological care,were analyzed.Results Successful nodule localization was accomplished in all patients.No statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse events existed between the patients with different clinical characteristics(P＞0.05).The gender,age,lesion site,nodule size,nodule-pleura distance,posture during puncturing and needle path route were not the factors influencing the occurrence of adverse reactions in patients receiving CT-guided pulmonary nodule localization using indocyanine green combined with methylene blue.Conclusion In performing CT-guided pulmonary nodule localization using indocyanine green combined with methylene blue,the nursing cooperation method carries generality and stability,which is suitable for patients with different clinical characteristics.

Objective:To study the role of ML-SA5, an agonist of the lysosomal Ca 2+ channel transient receptor potential mucolipin 1 (TRPML1), in promoting lysosomal exocytosis to facilitate intracellular uranium removal and alleviate uranium-induced cellular damage for human renal proximal tubule epithelial cells (HK-2) exposed to uranyl acetate. Methods:HK-2 cells were divided into the following groups to be exposed to uranyl acetate at either 0 or 300 μmol/L for 24 h, followed by treatment with ML-SA5 and/or the lysosomal exocytosis inhibitor vacuolin-1 for 0.5 h: control group (Ctrl group), ML-SA5 group (M group), vacuolin-1 group (V group), ML-SA5 plus vacuolin-1 group (M+ V group), uranium exposure group (U group), uranium exposure plus ML-SA5 group (U+ M group), uranium exposure plus vacuolin-1 group (U+ V group), and uranium exposure plus ML-SA5 plus vacuolin-1 group (U+ M+ V group). We localized lysosome-associated membrane protein-1 (LAMP-1) on the plasma membrane (surface LAMP-1) by immunofluorescence assay; measured intracellular uranium content by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry; measured the level of kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) by immunofluorescence assay; measured the rate of cell death with Calcein-AM/PI double staining; determined the subcellular localization of transcription factor EB (TFEB) and the levels of LAMP-1 and TRPML1 proteins by immunofluorescence assay; and measured the number of lysosomes using LysoTracker probes.Results:Compared with the Ctrl group, the U group showed significant increases in the surface LAMP-1 protein level ( t = 12.86, P < 0.05), KIM-1 protein level ( t = 18.86, P < 0.05), cell death rate ( t = 38.53, P < 0.05), TFEB nuclear translocation ( t = 9.12, P < 0.05), the protein expression levels of TFEB’s downstream target genes LAMP-1 ( t = 16.47, P < 0.05) and TRPML1 ( t = 32.33, P < 0.05), and the number of lysosomes labeled with LysoTracker probes ( t = 7.75, P < 0.05). Compared with the U group, the U+ M group showed a significantly increased surface LAMP-1 level ( t = 3.33, P < 0.05) and significant decreases in the intracellular uranium level ( t = 5.01, P < 0.05), KIM-1 protein expression level ( t = 3.81, P < 0.05), and cell death rate ( t = 3.24, P < 0.05); all these effects in the U+ M group could be neutralized by the lysosomal exocytosis inhibitor vacuolin-1; and in addition, ML-SA5 significantly increased TFEB nuclear translocation ( t = 9.20, P < 0.05), the protein expression levels of LAMP-1 ( t = 3.05, P < 0.05) and TRPML1 ( t = 3.17, P < 0.05), and the number of lysosomes labeled with LysoTracker probes ( t = 3.13, P < 0.05). Conclusions:The TRPML1 agonist ML-SA5 can promote lysosomal exocytosis to enhance intracellular uranium clearance and reduce uranium-induced cellular damage/death in uranium-loaded HK-2 cells, through activating TFEB to up-regulate lysosome biogenesis and TRPML1 protein expression.

Objective     To study the correlation of preoperative hemoglobin amount with venous thromboembolism (VTE) after surgical treatment of bronchiectasis and the clinical significance. Methods     A retrospective study was performed on patients with bronchiectasis who underwent surgical treatment in our center from June 2017 to November 2021. The differences in blood parameters between the VTE patients and non-VTE patients were compared. The relationship between preoperative hemoglobin and VTE was confirmed by quartile grouping and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results     A total of 122 patients were enrolled, including 50 males and 72 females, with a mean age of 52.52±12.29 years. The overall incidence of VTE after bronchiectasis was 9.02% (11/122). Preoperative hemoglobin amount (OR=0.923, 95%CI 0.870-0.980, P=0.008) and D-dimer amount (OR=1.734, 95%CI 1.087-2.766, P=0.021) were independent influencing factors for VTE after bronchiectasis. The incidence of VTE after bronchiectasis decreased gradually with the increase of preoperative hemoglobin amount. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of postoperative D-dimer alone was 0.757, whereas the AUC of postoperative D-dimer combined with preoperative hemoglobin amount was 0.878. Conclusion     Low preoperative hemoglobin is an independent risk factor for postoperative VTE. Postoperative D-dimer combined with preoperative hemoglobin amount has a better predictive performance compared with postoperative D-dimer alone for postoperative VTE.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of measuring the soft tissue height of bone cristae around implant by digital method. METHODS: A total of 36 patients with dental implants were selected from the Dental Medicine Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China (Anhui Provincial Hospital) from August 2022 to December 2022. A total of 43 dental implants were enrolled. All postoperative cone beam CT (CBCT) imaging data and intraoral digital impressions obtained before surgery were immediately obtained by the patients on the day of completion of oral implant surgery and they were imported into oral implant surgery planning software for image fitting. Then, virtual implants of the same specification were placed in the planting area, and the implant position was adjusted to overlap with the implant shadow in the CBCT image. Supracrestal tissue height (STH) was measured at the implant view interface (digital group). During the operation, implant holes were prepared step by step in accordance with the standard preparation method, and implants were implanted. The upper edge of the implant was flushed with the crest of the alveolar ridge. STH was measured by perio-dontal probing (periodontal probe group). Paired t-test was used to compare the STH differences between the digital and periodontal probe groups. Bland-Altman test was used to analyze the consistency of the two methods. Intra-group correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to verify the reliability of the results measured by different surveyors using di-gital methods. RESULTS: No statistical significance was observed in the STH difference between the two methods (P>0.05). Bland-Altman test showed good consistency between the two methods, but the measurement of mandibular posterior teeth showed that the results of periodontal probe were greater than those of digital method. The ICC and 95%CI of the STH results measured digitally by different surveyors are 0.992 (0.986-0.996). CONCLUSIONS The digital me-thod is in good agreement with the periodontal probe method in measuring the soft tissue height of the bone cristae around the implant.

Tooth germ injury can lead to abnormal tooth development and even tooth loss, affecting various aspects of the stomatognathic system including form, function, and appearance. However, the research about tooth germ injury model on cellular and molecule mechanism of tooth germ repair is still very limited. Therefore, it is of great importance for the prevention and treatment of tooth germ injury to study the important mechanism of tooth germ repair by a tooth germ injury model. Here, we constructed a Tg(dlx2b:Dendra2-NTR) transgenic line that labeled tooth germ specifically. Taking advantage of the NTR/Mtz system, the dlx2b⁺ tooth germ cells were depleted by Mtz effectively. The process of tooth germ repair was evaluated by antibody staining, in situ hybridization, EdU staining and alizarin red staining. The severely injured tooth germ was repaired in several days after Mtz treatment was stopped. In the early stage of tooth germ repair, the expression of phosphorylated 4E-BP1 was increased, indicating that mTORC1 is activated. Inhibition of mTORC1 signaling in vitro or knockdown of mTORC1 signaling in vivo could inhibit the repair of injured tooth germ. Normally, mouse incisors were repaired after damage, but inhibition/promotion of mTORC1 signaling inhibited/promoted this repair progress. Overall, we are the first to construct a stable and repeatable repair model of severe tooth germ injury, and our results reveal that mTORC1 signaling plays a crucial role during tooth germ repair, providing a potential target for clinical treatment of tooth germ injury.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of lysosomal membrane permeabilization(LMP)inuranyl acetate-induced death of human kidney proximal tubular epithelial HK-2 cells.Methods:HK-2 cells were exposed to uranyl acetate at concentrations of 100, 300 and 600 μmol/L for 24 h, then in tracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS)and mitochondrial superoxide were measured by DCFH-DA and MitoSOX probe, respectively. HK-2 cells were divided into four groups: blank control group, NAC or CA-074 Me group, uranyl acetate exposure group and uranyl acetate exposure plus NAC or CA-074 Me group. Two-color immune of luorescence staining was used to detect the co-localization of galectin-1 and lysosomal associated membrane protein-1 (LAMP-1) to measure the extent of LMP, and to detect the non- co-localization of cathepsin B and LAMP-1 to reflect the release of cathepsin B in lysosomes. Calcein-AM/PI double staining method was used to detect cell death. One-color immune of luorescence staining of cleaved-caspase-3 expression was used to detect apoptosis. Results:Intracellular ROS and mitochondrial superoxide levels were significantly increased in HK-2 cells after exposure with 100, 300 and 600 μmol/L uranyl acetate for 24 h, about 1.1-2.5 times or 4.0-28 times, respectively( tROS=17.98, 11.84, 11.75, P< 0.05; tmitochondrial superoxide=6.14, 16.02, 13.06, P< 0.05), and they also increased with uranyl acetate concentrations ( tROS=10.10, 10.37, 5.59, P< 0.05; tmitochondrial superoxide=21.50, 15.16, 5.93, P< 0.05). The percentage of co-localization of galectin-1 and LAMP-1 and the percentage of non- co-localization of cathepsin B and LAMP-1 were markedly increased in HK-2 cells after exposure with 600 μmol/L uranyl acetate for 24 h, 5.4-6.7 times or 1.5-2.1 times, respectively ( tGalectin-1=15.85, 12.70, P< 0.05; tCathepsin B=5.95, 6.69, P< 0.05), but these increases were inhibited by NAC ( tGalectin-1=4.74, P<0.05; tCathepsin B=4.51, P< 0.05). Moreover, the cell death rate and the cleaved-caspase-3 expression level were also significantly increased in HK-2 cells after exposure with 600 μmol/L uranyl acetate for 24 h, about 28-47 times or 2.4-6.0 times, respectively( tPI=30.40, 10.34, P<0.05; tCleaved-caspase-3=18.49, 9.52, P<0.05), and these increases were obviously diminished by CA-074 Me ( tPI= 6.76, P<0.05; tCleaved-caspase-3=13.47, P<0.05). Conclusions:Exposure to uranyl acetate induces a burst of intracellular ROSthat leads to LMP and consequently causes leakage of cathepsin B from lysosomes to cytoplasm, in turn triggering the lysosomal-dependent cell death and mitochondrial-regulated apoptosis of HK-2 cells.

【Objective】 To study the incidence and specificity of platelet antibody in blood donors in Suzhou, analyze the distribution characteristics of platelet antibody in blood donors in this area, and explore the significance of platelet antibody detection in blood donors to reduce the adverse reactions toplatelet transfusion in clinical. 【Methods】 Platelet antibody detection was performed in 2178 blood donors in this area by solid-phase immunosorbent assay. The antibody specificity of the positive samples was analyzed by commercial kit, and the anti-CD36 antibody positive samples were further identified by flow cytometry and gene sequencing. 【Results】 Twelve positive samples were detected by platelet antibody screening, with a positive rate of 0.55%(12/2 178), including 5 males (0.33%, 5/2 178)and 7 females(1.06%, 7/2 178). Among the positive samples, anti-HLA-Ⅰ antibody was identified in 2 cases, anti-CD36 antibody in 1 case, and the antibody specificity was not identified in the other 9 cases. In one case, the positive rate of anti-HLA-Ⅰ antibody PRA was 31.31%(31/ 99), which was mainly specific to anti-B15, anti-B35 and anti-B40. The positive rate of anti-HLA-Ⅰ antibody PRA in the other case was 45.45%(45/ 99), which was mainly specific to anti-A2, anti-A11, anti-A24, anti-A29, anti-A33, anti-A66, anti-B15 and anti-B35. The blood donor with anti-CD36 antibody was type I CD36 deficiency, and 329_330delAC mutation occurred in exon 5. 【Conclusion】 Through antibody screening and specificity identification, the positive rate of platelet antibody in females was significantly higher than that in males(P<0.05). In addition to the common anti-HLA-I antibodies, anti-CD36 antibody was also detected in type I CD36 deficient blood donor. Therefore, the detection of platelet antibodies in blood donors is of certain clinical significance to reduce the adverse reactions to blood transfusion caused by antibodies in platelet products.
