Objective: To explore the associations of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) and sedentary behavior (SB) among primary and secondary school students and their parents, so as to provide a scientific basis for formulating targeted physical activity promotion strategies for children and adolescents. Methods: From 2021 to 2022, basic information and 24 h movement behaviors of 2 484 pairs of students and their parents were collected from five primary and secondary schools in Haizhu District, Guangzhou City, with a convenient sampling combining with cluster sampling method. Component regression models were constructed to analyze the relationship between parental MVPA, SB and primary and secondary school students MVPA and SB, and a component isochronous substitution model was used to explore the effects of mutual substitution between parental MVPA, residual components (time use components other than SB during the 24 h period), and SB on the behavioral activities of MVPA and SB in primary and secondary school students. Results: Parental MVPA and SB of students in grade 1 to 3 were positively correlated with both students MVPA and SB ( β=0.06, 0.12, P <0.01). The component isochronous substitution model showed that substituting 10 and 20 minutes of MVPA for SB by parents in grade 1 to 3 was associated with an increase in MVPA of students, and substituting 10 and 20 minutes of residual ingredients for SB was associated with a decrease in SB of students, with mean changes of 0.8 (95% CI =0.4-1.2) and 1.4 (95% CI =0.7-2.2) and -1.4 (95% CI =-1.7 to -1.1) and -2.9 (95% CI =-3.4 to -2.3)( P <0.05). No statistically significant associations were observed between parents of students in grades 4 to 6 and 7 to 9 and students physical activity and sedentary behaviour ( P >0.05). Conclusions Parents of students in grades 1 to 3 increases MVPA and decrease SB are beneficial to increase MVPA and decrease SB of students. Parents could promote physical activity among primary and secondary school students, and the intervention gateway should be advanced, with the low grades as the optimal intervention period.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, surgical methods and prognosis of patients with acute type A aortic dissection combining coronary artery involvement.Methods:415 patients diagnosed with acute type A aortic dissection from October 2016 to September 2019 were included in the study.Among them, 358 were males and 57 were females; aged(51.2±10.7) years old.According to the results of intraoperative coronary probes, 342 patients in the group were without coronary involvement, and the other 73 were with coronary involvement.Data on the coronary involvement classification, site, and treatment methods of the coronary involvement group were collected by consulting the ward medical record system.Meanwhile, preoperative baseline data, surgical data and prognostic results were retrospectively collected between the two groups. The data of the two groups were compared by chi- square test, t-test and Mann- Whitney U test. Results:Coronary involvement group: Among 73 (17.6%, 73/415) patients with coronary involvement, 8 (11.0%) in the left coronary, 48 in the right (65.8%), and 17 (23.3%)cases with involvement of both left and right coronary arteries. Classification of coronary artery(90) involvement: Neri A in 47(52.2%, 47/90), 33 with Neri B (36.7%, 33/90), and 10 with type Neri C (11.1%, 10/90). Type Neri B/C coronary artery involvement was mostly treated with artificial vascular coronary artery replacement or coronary artery bypass grafting. Comparison between the two groups show, patients in the coronary involvement group had higher preoperative levels of CK-MB, D-dimer and more severe aortic valve regurgitation compared to the coronary non-involvement group. The comparison of surgical data suggests that the coronary involvement group had a higher proportion of aortic root treatment, longer operation time, cardiopulmonary bypass time and aortic clamping time. A higher percentage of intimal tear located in the ascending aorta or aortic root was found in the coronary involvement group. The mortality rate in the coronary involvement group was significantly higher than that of the non-involvement group (12% versus 4%), and it was more likely to combine heart failure (5% versus 1%) and renal failure (26% versus 13%).Conclusion:Compared with pure type A dissection, patients with coronary artery involvement are more common in patients whose primary intimal tear were found at the proximal aorta, and are more prone to severe aortic valve regurgitation. Coronary artery treatment procedures include direct suture and fixation, coronary artery replacement, and coronary artery bypass grafting. Among them, Neri A coronary involvement can mostly be fixed with direct suture and stabilization, while the Neri B / C type mostly requires artificial vascular replacement of the affected coronary artery or coronary artery bypass. Patients with coronary artery involvement have a higher proportion of deaths and confer relatively higher risk of post-operative renal/cardiac failure.

Objective: To summarize the peri-operative management experience of pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Methods: A total of 56 CTEPH patients received PEA in our hospital from 2015-01 to 2016-11 were retrospectively analyzed. Our study was focused on the medication in respiratory and circulatory system during ICU stay, peri-operative application of vasoactive drug and target drug to pulmonary hypertension (HP), usage of ventilators, mechanical assisted devices and other management experiences. Results: No peri-operative death occurred. There were 2/56 (3.6%) patients with lung reperfusion, 2 (3.6%) with PH crisis. Compared with pre-operation, the post-operative pulmonary artery hemodynamics parameters were improved as right heart catheter measured pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) decreased from (85.05±22.40) mmHg to (36.83 ±17.21) mmHg and pulmonary vascular resistance decreased from (773.84±342.95) dyn·s·cm-5 to (293.59±214.95) dyn·s·cm-5. Post-operative oxygen saturation was maintained at (95-100) % in all patients. Echocardiography found that PASP from pre-operation (85.03±25.78) mmHg decreased to (39.44±19.24) mmHg at follow-up period, P<0.01.Conclusion: A comprehensive peri-operative management of PEA was helpful to improve pulmonary hemodynamics in CTEPH patients; meanwhile, effective prevention and treatment of severe complication could obviously reduce peri-operative mortality.

Objective To evaluate the effects of malignant ascites on the morphological characteristics and the proliferation and migration abilities of the tumor cell and ovarian cancer cell lines(SKOV3)in the ovarian cancerous ascites.Methods Tumor cells extracted from the ovarian cancerous ascites were cultured in vitro with DMEM high glucose culture medium,and ovarian cancer cell lines( SKOV3) were cultured in DMEM high glucose and DMEM high glucose with different proportion of malignant ascites.The morphological characteristics of the cells were observed by optical microscope and electron microscope respectively.Cell proliferation ability was de-tected by CCK kit;The effect of SKOV3 on the migration of ovarian cancer cell lines was measured by scratch test.Results The morphological characteristics of tumor cells and ovarian cancer cell lines( SKOV3) in ovarian cancer ascites were significantly different.The proliferation ability of tumor cells was decreased without the asci-tes.The proliferation and migration abilities of SKOV3 cultured in mixed culture medium were significantly im-proved compared with the cells cultured in high glucose medium.Conclusion The change of tumor cell morphol-ogy in ascites benefits its abilities of proliferation and migration.The malignant ascites promote the abilities of pro-liferation and migration of ovarian cancer cell line(SKOV3).

Objective To investigate the relationship between the helper T cell 17 (TH 17)/ Regulatory T cells (Treg cells) balance in peripheral blood with acute graft-versus-host reaction (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT),as well as the impact of anti-thymocyte immunoglobulin (ATG) on helper T cells in peripheral blood.Method Seventyeight hematologic patients underwent allo-HSCT,conditioning with or without ATG.Ten healthy volunteers severed as a control group.The helper T and regulatory T cells in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry.Enzyme-linked irnmunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect serum concentrations of interleukin(IL)-17,IL-21,IL22,IL23,γ interferon (IFN-γ),and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1).Result The percentage of Treg cells,TH17 cells and ratio of TH17/Treg cells in patients without aGVHD showed no significant difference from the healthy controls (P＞ 0.05).As compared with control group and non aGVHD group,the ratio of Treg cells was increased,the percentage of TH 17 cells,and TH 17/Treg cells were significantly increased in 1-2-degree aGVHD group (P＜0.01).With increased degree of aGVHD,the difference as above was more significant in 3-4-degree aGVHD recipients (P＜0.01).In aGVHD group,the IL-17,IL-23,IL-21 and IFN-γ concentrations were higher than the healthy group (P＜0.01) and non-aGVHD group (P＜0.05).Serum TGF-β1 level in aGVHD group was significantly decreased as compared with healthy group and non-GVHD group (P＜0.05),while IL-22 concentrations showed no statistically significant difference among three groups (P＞0.05).In anti-thymocyte immunoglobulin (ATG) pretreatment group,the absolute count of peripheral blood lymphocytes was less than in healthy control group (P＜0.01).In ATG group,the absolute counts of TH1 cells,TH17 cells,CD3+ CD4+ cells and non-TH1/17 cells were less than in non-ATG group (P =0.0000),while the absolute counts of lymphocytes,CD3+ CD4-cells,and TH 1/17 cells were less than in non-ATG group,but there was significant difference (P＞0.05).Conclusion The balance of TH 17/Treg cells and related cytokines were closely associated with aGVHD after allo-HSCT,and ATG influences the reconstruction of TH 17 and Th1 cells at early stage.

Objective To explore the impact of rituximab on Th17 cells and related cytokines in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in vitro and its significance.Methods 20 cases of DLBCL untreated patients and 20 healthy subjects were enrolled in the name of DLBCL group and health control group, respectively.4 peripheral blood samples were collected from every case to separate peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), which were assigned to 4 subgroups according to different culture conditions: blank subgroup(subgroup A), rituximab subgroup (subgroup B), rituximab and serum subgroup (subgroup C) and polarization subgroup (subgroup D) (added IL-6 and TGF-β).After cultured in vitro, the percentage of Th17 cells in each subgroup was tested by flow cytometry, and the cytokine IL-17 in the abovementioned culture fluid was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results In health control group, the percentage of Th17 cells and the level of IL-17 in subgroup D [(17.12 ± 4.90) ％ and (45.735±10.012) pg/ml] were significantly higher than those in subgroup A, B, C (P ＜ 0.05), and there was no difference in each other subgroup A, B, C (P ＞ 0.05).The percentage of Th17 cells and the level of IL-17 in the DLBCL subgroup A were significantly lower than those in health control subgroup A [(0.69±0.24) ％ and (6.012±1.312) pg/ml vs (2.43±0.61) ％ and (8.217±1.681) pg/ml (P ＜ 0.05)].In DLBCL group, after cultured with rituximab, the percentages of Th17 cells in subgroup B, C, D were (2.34±0.48) ％, (2.31±0.53) ％ and (16.92±4.81) ％, and the levels of IL-17 were (7.944±1.538) pg/ml, (7.957±1.533) pg/ml and (44.417±9.881) pg/ml, respectively, which were all significantly higher than those in subgroup A.Besides, the percentage of Th17 cells and the level of IL-17 in DLBCL subgroup D were significantly higher than those in subgroup B, C (P ＜ 0.05), while there was no difference between subgroup B and subgroup C.Conclusion Experiments in vitro confirmed that the percentage of Th17 cells in PBMCs of DLBCL patients was lower than that in healthy persons, and rituximab could elevate the percentage of Th17 cells in PBMCs of DLBCL patients.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate characteristics of molecular etiology of children with profound sensorineural hearing loss in Hubei province, and to provide reference for deafness treatment and genetic counseling. METHOD: Three hundred and six children with profound sensorineural hearing loss in Hubei province were enrolled, their genomic DNA were extracted from peripheral blood and a deafness gene test chip was used to screen nine hot spot mutation in the GJB2, GJB3, SLC26A4, and mitochondria 12SrRNA gene. All patients with SLC26A4 gene mutation were given temporal bone CT scan. RESULT: One hundred and thirty-two (43.14%) out of 306 children were found carrying at least one pathogenic gene mutation. The mutation rates of GJB2, SLC26A4 and mitochondria DNA 12SrRNA gene were 29.41% (90/306), 13.72% (42/306) and 0.65% (2/306), respectively. None out of 306 children was detected GJB3 gene mutation. Thirty-six patients carrying SLC26A4 gene mutation were detected enlarged vestibular aqueduct by CT scan. CONCLUSION Mutations of GJB2 and SLC26A4 gene are two major pathogenic gene for genetic hearing loss in children. 235delC mutation is the main mutation type, followed by IVS7-2A> G mutation type. The screening of SLC26A4 gene common mutations contribute to the diagnosis of enlarged vestibular aqueduct syndrome.
