Objective To summarize the experience and practical value of living donor kidney harvesting in Bama miniature pigs with six gene modified. Methods The left kidney of Bama miniature pigs with six gene modified was obtained by living donor kidney harvesting technique. First, the ureter was occluded, and then the inferior vena cava and abdominal aorta were freed. During the harvesting process, the ureter, renal vein and renal artery were exposed and freed in sequence. The vascular forceps were used at the abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava, and the renal artery and vein were immediately perfused with 4℃ renal preservation solution, and stored in ice normal saline for subsequent transplantation. Simultaneously, the donor abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava gap were sutured. The operation time, blood loss, warm and cold ischemia time, postoperative complications and the survival of donors and recipients were recorded. Results The left kidney of the genetically modified pig was successfully harvested. Intraoperative bleeding was 5 mL, warm ischemia time was 45 s, and cold ischemia time was 2.5 h. Neither donor nor recipient pig received blood transfusion, and urinary function of the kidney transplanted into the recipient was recovered. The donor survived for more than 8 months after the left kidney was resected. Conclusions Living donor kidney harvesting is safe and reliable in genetically modified pigs. Branch blood vessels could be processed during kidney harvesting, which shortens the process of kidney repair and the time of cold ischemia. Living donor kidney harvesting contributes to subsequent survival of donors and other scientific researches.

Drowning is a common and serious injury worldwide, especially for children and young people. Drowning occurs frequently, resulting in heavy health and economic burdens to society. This paper summarizes the progress in the research of the epidemiology of drowning both at home and abroad, including the epidemiological characteristics, risk factors and intervention measures. Through analysis on existing research literature, it is found that there are large differences in the incidence characteristics of drowning in different regions. Men and children are at high risk for drowning. Age, being man, rural environment, lack of supervision, alcohol consumption, and underlying diseases are risk factors for drowning. It is suggested to pay more attention to the problem of drowning, improve people's awareness of drowning, take appropriate intervention measures and strengthen multi-sectoral collaboration to prevent and control the incidence of drowning.

Objective This study aims to predict the coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)epidemic in Xi'an based on SEAIQR model and Dropout-LSTM model,and to provide a scientific basis for evaluating the effectiveness of the"dynamic zero-COVID policy".Methods Considering a large number of asymptomatic infections,the changing parameters,and control procedures,we developed a time-dependent susceptible-exposed-asymptomatic-infected-quarantined-removed(SEAIQR)model with stage-specific interventions.Considering the time-series characteristics of COVID-19 data and the nonlinear relationship between them,we constructed a deep learning Dropout-LSTM model.The data of newly confirmed cases in Xi'an from December 9th,2021 to January 31st,2022 were used to fit the model,and the data from February 1st,2022 to February 7th,2022 were used to evaluate the model performance of forecasting.We then calculated the effective reproduction number(Rt)and analyzed the sensitivity of the different measurement scenarios.Results The peak of newly confirmed cases predicted by the SEAIQR model would appear on December 26th,2021,with 176 cases,and the"dynamic zero-COVID policy"may be achieved in January 24th,2022,with R2=0.849.The Dropout-LSTM model can reflect the time-series and nonlinear characteristics of the data,and the predicted newly confirmed cases were highly consistent with the actual situation,with R2=0.937.The MAE and RMSE of the Dropout-LSTM model were lower than those of the SEAIQR model,indicating that the predicted results were more ideal.At the beginning of the outbreak,R0 was 5.63.Since the implementation of comprehensive control,Rt has shown a gradual downward trend,dropping to below 1.0 on December 27th,2021.With the reduction of effective contact rate,the early implementation of control measures and the improvement of immunity threshold,the peak of newly confirmed cases will continue to decrease.Conclusion The proposed Dropout-LSTM model forecasts the epidemic well,which can provide a reference for decision-making of the"dynamic zero-COVID policy."

The surveillance data of new cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2021, in Tengzhou City, Shandong Province, were used to analyze the incidence rate of AMI and its change trend among residents. The age and gender standardized incidence rate was calculated based on the 7th National Population Census 2020. The Cochran-Armitage trend test was used to analyze the trend of onset time and age. From 2013 to 2021, the crude and standardized incidence rate of total AMI in Tengzhou City declined from 130.07/100 000 and 161.12/100 000 to 76.15/100 000 and 72.77/100 000 ( Z=-13.785 and -20.822, both P<0.001). The crude and standardized incidence rates of males were higher than those of females. In 2016, males aged 45-54 years old and females aged 35-64 years old increased by 33.33%, 103.65%, 106.30%, and 95.75% compared to 2015, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=6.512, 4.965, 25.115, and 46.004, all P<0.05). The incidence rate of AMI in men aged<35 and 35-44 years old had an upward trend. From 2013 to 2021, the incidence rate of AMI decreased by 55.15% in urban areas and 36.59% in rural areas ( Z=-8.529 and -11.235, both P<0.001).

Objective:To analyze the impact of hypertension prevention and control on the mortality rate of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Tengzhou City, Shandong Province from 2013 to 2021.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. The surveillance data of AMI deaths from January 1, 2013 (the time when hypertension prevention and control began in Tengzhou) to December 31, 2021 were collected in the coronary heart disease information management system, the mortality rate of AMI and its change trend were analyzed, and the distribution differences among residents with different characteristics were analyzed. The registered population information was obtained from Tengzhou Public Security Bureau, and the age and gender standardized mortality rate was calculated based on the data of the 7th national population census in 2020. The t test was used to compare the differences in blood pressure and laboratory items, chi-square test was used to compare the differences in mortality rate, and Cochran-Armitage trend test was used to compare the time trend and age trend of mortality rate, so as to analyze the impact of hypertension prevention and control on the mortality rate of AMI. Results:The overall crude and standardized AMI mortality rates in Tengzhou decreased from 50.87/100 000 and 63.82/100 000 to 41.08/100 000 and 38.70/100 000 from 2013 to 2021, respectively ( Z=-5.741, -10.884, both P<0.001), and double peaks were formed in 2014 and 2017. The first peak of crude and standardized mortality rate was formed in 2015 for males, which was 25.12% and 17.60% higher than that in 2013; and the first peak was formed in 2014 for females, which was 29.56% and 24.38% higher than that in 2013 ( χ2=13.200, 9.065, 14.862, 12.123) (all P<0.05). The second peaks of crude and standardized mortality were formed in 2017, with an increase of 18.17% and 17.17% for males and 25.73% and 22.34% for females from 2016 ( χ2=8.266, 9.182, 14.066, 11.105), the standardized mortality rate was 15.18%-29.01% higher in males than that in females ( χ2=6.239-19.326) (all P<0.05). The mortality rate of AMI increased with age ( Z=35.485-51.308) ( P<0.001). Compared with 2013, the mortality rate in males aged 55 to 64 years in 2015 increased by 64.29% from that in 2013, and that of females in 2017 increased by 108.48% from that in 2015; and that in females aged 35 to 44 years in 2016 increased by 373.51% from that in 2015 ( χ2=10.751, 12.805, 4.799); in 2021, the age group of male and female≥65 years decreased by 43.51% and 41.28% when compared with that in 2013, respectively ( Z=-7.333, -7.465) (all P<0.05). The mortality rate of AMI in urban areas decreased by 76.93% in 2021 when compared with that in 2016, and in rural areas it decreased by 30.28% than that in 2017. Both regions showed a downward trend ( Z=-7.560, -2.398) (both P<0.05). Conclusions:The mortality rate of AMI in Tengzhou City, Shandong Province from 2013 to 2021 shows a decreasing trend, and prevention and control of hypertension may be one of the reasons. The standardized mortality rate of males is higher than that of females, and the mortality rate decline rate in rural areas is lower than that in urban areas. The primary and secondary prevention of AMI in such populations should be strengthened.

Objective:To analyze the trends of coronary heart disease mortality in Tengzhou city of Shandong province from 2013 to 2021.Methods:The data of coronary heart disease (ICD-10: I20-I25) from January 2013 to December 2021 were obtained from the Chronic Disease Surveillance Information System-Coronary Heart Disease Management Module of Shandong province; the population data were provided by Tengzhou Public Security Bureau. The 95% confidence interval ( CI) of the rate was calculated using the binomial exact method. The age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) was calculated based on 2020 National Population Census. The trends of mortality rate were analyzed using the Cochran-Armitage trend test. Results:During 2013 to 2021, there were 20 667 coronary heart disease deaths in Tengzhou city, with an average of 2 296 cases per year. The male-to-female ratio was 1.09∶1, and 80.98% (16 736/20 667) of the death cases were aged 65 years or older. The crude mortality rate and ASMR of coronary heart disease were 131.84/10 5 and 168.22/10 5 in 2013, respectively. The crude mortality rate increased by 13.67% from 2013 to 2021 ( P<0.001) with an average annual increase of 1.59%; while the ASMR decreased by 18.65% from 2013 to 2021 ( P<0.05) with an average annual decease of 2.34%. The crude mortality rate of coronary heart disease in men and women showed an upward trend, with the difference in the increase for women being statistically significant ( P<0.01); while the ASMR both in men and women showed a downward trend ( P<0.001). The crude death rates from 2013 to 2021 in age groups of 65 or older for men and women decreased by 22.40% and 19.73%, respectively (both P<0.001); while the crude death rate for age groups of 44 or younger in men showed an upward trend ( P<0.05). The crude death rate among urban residents decreased by 5.22% from 2013 to 2021 with an annual decrease of 0.67% ( P>0.05); while the crude death rate among rural residents increased by 19.29% with an annual increase of 2.18% ( P<0.001). The overall crude death rate among urban residents was higher than that among rural residents (all P<0.05). Conclusions:From 2013 to 2021, the crude mortality rate of coronary heart disease in Tengzhou city of Shandong province shows an increasing trend while the age-standardized mortality rate shows a decreasing trend. The crude mortality rate of coronary heart disease in people aged 65 and above shows a decreasing trend. In addition, the change trends are different between women and men, and between urban and rural areas.

Objective To investigate the establishment of a six-gene-edited pig-to-non-human primate kidney xenotransplantation model. Methods The kidney of humanized genetically-edited pig (GTKO/β4GalNT2KO/CMAHKO/hCD55/hCD46/hTBM) was transplanted into a cynomolgus monkey. The survival of the recipient and kidney condition after blood perfusion were observed. The parenchymal echo, blood flow changes, and size of the kidney were monitored on a regular basis. Routine blood test, kidney function test and electrolyte assessment were carried out. Dynamic changes of urine, feces and body mass were monitored. At the end of life, the transplant kidney, heart, liver, spleen, lung, and cecum were collected for pathological examination. Results The recipient died at postoperative 7 d. After blood flow was restored, the kidney was properly perfused, the organ was soft and the color was normal. At the end of the recipient's life, a slight amount of purulent secretion was attached to the ventral side of the kidney, with evident congestion and swelling, showing the appearance of "red kidney". Postoperatively, the echo of renal parenchyma was increased, blood flow was decreased, the cortex was gradually thickened, and a slight amount of effusion surrounded the kidney and abdominal cavity over time. In the recipient, the amount of peripheral red blood cells, hemoglobin, albumin, and platelets was progressively decreased, and serum creatinine level was increased to 308 μmol/L at postoperative 7 d, whereas the K+ concentration did not significantly change. Light yellow urine was discharged immediately after surgery, diet and drinking water were resumed within postoperative 3 h, and light yellow and normal-shape stool was discharged. The reddish urine was gradually restored to normal color within postoperative 1 d, which were consistent with the results of the routine urine test. A large amount of brown bloody stool was discharged twice in the morning of 2 d after surgery. Omeprazole was given for acid suppression, and the stool returned to normal at postoperative 4 d. The β2-microglobulin level was increased to 0.75 mg/L at postoperative 7 d. The body mass was increased by 1.7 kg. Autopsy pathological examination showed interstitial edema and bleeding of the transplant kidney, a large amount of infiltration of lymphocytes and macrophages, infiltration of lymphocytes in the arteriole wall and arterial cavity, accompanied by arteritis changes, lymphocyte infiltration in the cecal stroma and congestion in the spleen tissues. No significant abnormal changes were observed in other organs. Conclusions The humanized genetically-edited pig-to-non-human primate kidney xenotransplantation model is successfully established, and postoperative survival of the recipient is 1 week.
