AIM: To understand the screening and correction of myopia in children and adolescents from the Gannan region of Gansu Province, and to provide guidance for the prevention and control of myopia.METHODS: A cross-sectional stratified cluster sampling study was conducted to select 2 kindergartens and 12 primary and secondary schools in Hezuo City and Zhouqu County, Gannan region of Gansu Province, two classes were randomly selected from each grade, and the whole class was used as a unit for screening. The screening and correction of myopia in children and adolescents were collected for statistical analysis.RESULTS: A total of 5 072 children and adolescents were selected, and 4 806 valid data were finally included after excluding unqualified records. The overall prevalence of myopia was 45.55%, and the prevalence of myopia showed an increasing trend with the increase of grade(P<0.001). The prevalence of myopia in girls(48.66%)was higher than that in boys(42.18%; P<0.001). The prevalence of myopia increased with age(P<0.001), and the age group of 10-12 years old was the fastest growing for myopia, increasing from 25.62% to 60.57%. Furthermore, moderate myopia and high myopia showed an increasing tread with the increase of the grade(all P<0.001). The overall glasses wearing rate of the Gannan region was 28.55%, with a full correction rate of 50.72%, and the glasses wearing rate showed an increasing trend with the increase of grades(P<0.001). The glasses wearing rate of female students(30.84%)was higher than that of male students(26.69%; P=0.008). The full correction rates of low, moderate and high myopia in junior high were the lowest among the 3 phases of studying. The full correction rate of high myopia was the lowest in all phases of studying.CONCLUSION: The prevalence of myopia in children and adolescents from the Gannan region is lower than the national average, but the myopia of children and adolescents is still a trend of young age and high incidence, and the glasses wearing rate of myopia and full correction rate are low.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of automated flexible endoscope channel brushing system (AFECBS) on endoscope reprocessing.Methods:A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted. The used endoscopes were divided into automatic group and manual group by random number table method, 200 in each group. In the automatic group, the AFECBS was used to scrub each tube 3 times during endoscope cleaning; and in the manual group, scrubbing and disinfection personnel routinely brushed each pipeline for 3 times. The primary end point was the qualified rate of endoscopic cleaning quality in the two groups, and the secondary end point was the time spent by the scrubbing and disinfection personnel on the two groups.Results:The qualified rate of overall cleaning in the automatic group was 90.0% (180/200), and in the manual group was 81.0% (162/200). The qualified rate of the automatic group was higher than that of the manual group ( χ2=6.534, P=0.011). The qualified rate of gastroscope cleaning in the automatic group was higher than that in the manual group [92.0% (127/138) VS 81.6% (120/147), χ2=6.658, P=0.010]. There was no significant difference in the qualified rate of colonoscope cleaning between the automatic group and the manual group [85.5% (53/62) VS 79.2% (42/53), χ2=0.774, P=0.379]. When the cleaning personnel scoured 5 endoscopes in each of the two groups, the time of the automatic group (5.17±0.42 min) was shorter than that of the manual group (9.60±0.53 min) ( t=92.644, P<0.001). Conclusion:Compared with manual scrubbing, AFECBS can improve the qualified rate of endoscope cleaning and the work efficiency of scrubbing and disinfection personnel, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To explore the role and underlying mechanism of type Ⅲ secretion system(T3SS)in regulating the internalization of Pseudomonas aeruginosa(PA)into pulmonary epithelial cells.Methods The human non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells were infected with or without PA strains,including wild-type PAO1(a standard experimental PA strain),△exsA(knockout of the critical activator for T3SS genes),△pscJ(T3SS secretion-defective strain)and PAO1-E(EGTA-induced high expression of T3SS genes).The A549 cells pretreated with ERK inhibitor U0126 or reactive oxygen species(ROS)inhibitor apocynin(APO)/N-acetyl-L-cysteine(NAC)were infected with PAO1 or PAO1-E strain.Thus,the experiment was grouped as follows:the mock-treated group,PAO1-or PAO1-E-infected group,inhibitor-treated group,and PAO1/PAO1-E plus inhibitor-treated group.Extracellular bacteria were killed by gentamicin,and the cell lysates were diluted and then plated on PA screening plates.Bacterial amounts were detected by counting colony-forming units(CFUs).The production of ROS was analyzed using fluorescent probe labeling and flow cytometry.The activation of the ERK pathway was detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with the PAO1-infected group,the intracellular bacteria and ROS level in △exsA-or△pscJ-infected cells were lower(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),so was the generation of ROS(P＜0.01);In contrast,those of the PAO1-E strain-infected cells displayed an opposite trend(P＜0.01).Compared with the PAO1-or PAO1-E-infected group,the cells pretreated with APO/NAC followed by PAO1 or PAO1-E infection showed reduced intracellular bacterial amounts(P＜0.01).Compared to the PAO1-infected A549 cells,the phosphorylation level of ERK was increased in the △exsA-or △pscJ-infected cells(P＜0.01),while that level was suppressed in the PAO1-E-treated cells(P＜0.01).Compared with the PAO1-infected group,the PAO1-infected cells pretreated with U0126 displayed reduced ERK activation,elevated ROS production,and increased intracellular counts of PAO1(P＜0.01).Conclusion T3SS-mediated inhibition of the ERK pathway promotes the production of ROS and the internalization of PA in lung epithelial cells.

Objective To explore the plasma-activated medium(PAM)produced by low temperature plasma(LTP)on the proliferation and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)so as to provide theoretical basis for the future use of PAM to promote wound healing and inhibit tumor angiogenesis.Methods HUVECs were selected as the in vitro research model.The PAM-containing medium after LTP treatment for different time points(0 s,15 s,30 s,45 s,60 s,and 75 s)was used for intervention.The influence of PAM on HUVECs viability was assessed using the MTT assay and cell cycle analysis.The effects of PAM on angiogenesis were examined through angiogenesis experiments.Intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS)were measured using fluorescence probes.A melanoma mouse model was established,and CD31 expression was detected by immunohistochemistry.Results As the treatment time increased,the intracellular levels of ROS also elevated.PAM derived from LTP exhibited a bidirectional effect on angiogenesis in HUVECs.Compared to the control group(0 s),low-dose treatments(15 s and 30 s)enhanced HUVECs viability,while high-dose treatments(45 s,60 s,and 75 s)significantly decreased cell viability(P＜0.05).The proportion of HUVECs in the S phase was significantly increased in the PAM-15 s and PAM-30 s groups,but markedly decreased in the PAM-45 s,PAM-60 s,and PAM-75 s groups,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The HUVECs tube formation ability was enhanced in the 15 s and 30 s PAM groups,but diminished in the PAM-45 s,PAM-60 s,and PAM-75 s groups,characterized by the decreased numbers of vascular nodes,intersections,meshes,and branching points(P＜0.05).After PAM treatment in the melanoma mouse model,the control group exhibited widespread distribution of CD31 in tumor tissue,while the PAM-5 min and PAM-10 min groups displayed reduced distribution of CD31.Conclusion Short-term exposure to PAM enhances HUVECs proliferation and angiogenesis,whereas prolonged exposure suppresses cell viability and inhibits angiogenesis.

【Objective】 Escherichia coli phage (ECP) and Staphylococcus aureus phage (SAP) isolated from sewage were used as research objects, and their biological characteristics were analyzed to provide new experimental materials for the application of phages. 【Methods】 ECP and SAP were purified and cultured by double-layer agar method. Then a series of biological characteristics of these two phages were preliminarily analyzed by electron microscope observation, optimal multiplicity of infection (MOI) test, one-step growth curve test, temperature, pH, chloroform and ultraviolet sensitivity tests, respectively. 【Results】 The results of biological characteristics showed that ECP and SAP were both virulent phages, belonging to myoviridac family. Their optimal MOI was 10^-1, and they had strong resistance to ultraviolet light. The cleavage volume of ECP was 76.3 PFU/cell, while that of SAP was 8.3 PFU/cell. ECP had a wide range of temperature tolerance and could stably survive at 30-50 ℃, while SAP was more sensitive to temperature and could be completely inactivated at 50 ℃ for 1 h. ECP could maintain a good lysis activity in the range of pH 5-11, while SAP in the range of pH 6-9. ECP had strong resistance to chloroform and was non-membranous phage, while SAP was more sensitive to chloroform and was a membranous phage. 【Conclusion】 ECP and SAP are both virulent phages and have strong resistance to ultraviolet light. The lysability, temperature, pH, and chloroform tolerance of ECP are stronger than those of SAP.

Objective:To explore the β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition pattern of subjects with the preclinical Alzheimer′s disease (AD), community-derived amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and normal cognition (NC) from communities of Shanghai.Methods:According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 273 subjects (104 males, 169 females; age (64.2±7.6) years) were recruited from Shanghai community and memory clinics from December 2018 to July 2020. All subjects underwent MRI, 18F-AV45 PET imaging and neuropsychological scale tests and were grouped into AD, aMCI and NC groups based on clinical diagnosis. Differences in demographic information, the neuropsychological scale tests′ scores and positive rate of Aβ deposition among each group were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance or χ2 test. Aβ deposition patterns of AD and MCI groups were analyzed at voxel level, and the differences of Aβ deposition among different groups were compared. Results:Among 273 patients, the positive rates of Aβ deposition in AD, aMCI and NC groups were 84.4%(38/45), 36.4%(20/55) and 23.1%(40/173), respectively ( χ2=58.37, P<0.001). Among AD, aMCI, NC and NC (Aβ-) groups ( n=132), the education years of AD group was the lowest ((9.7±4.6) years; F=8.86, P<0.001). In addition, there were significant differences in the scores of several neuropsychological scale tests among AD, aMCI, NC groups and NC (Aβ-) group ( F values: 27.68-235.50, all P<0.001). Compared with subjects in NC(Aβ-) group, the Aβ depositions in the aMCI and AD groups were widely distributed in the whole cerebral cortex; and AD group had higher Aβ deposition in bilateral frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital lobe, cingulate gyrus and precuneus than aMCI group. Conclusions:The positive rate of Aβ deposition in the preclinical AD population from the Shanghai community is obtained. There are significant different Aβ deposition patterns in subjects at different stages of AD.

OBJECTIVE To provide the suggestions for improving t he enthusiasm of the public to report adverse drug reactions （ADRs），promoting pharmaceutical manufacturers to improve the smoothness of ADR reporting channels by the public and the enthusiasm of assuming the main responsibility for drug safety ，and to provide reference for the performance of drug safety supervision by regulatory departments in China. METHODS Taking 180 pharmaceutical manufacturers that had entered the top 1 000 in the world as the objects ，the questionnaire was prepared to investigate the smoothness of ADR reporting channels through 4 channels：contact number ，e-mail，official website and new media （including Wechat and microblog ） of enterprise . The questionnaire involved the establishment of public reporting channels ，the records and the feedback of enterprises. The existing problems were analyzed and suggestions were put forward. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS More than 70％ of pharmaceutical manufacturers in China had established the channels for reporting ADR by the public ，which were mainly regular channels such as contact numbers and e-mail ，and each channel had the phenomenon that ADR information couldn ’t be reported. More than 60％ of the public channels established by manufactures lacked inquiry and supplement for the miss ing part of th e reported information ； only 24 pharmaceutical manufacturers provided feedback on ADR information ，and the feedback contents were monotonous. gywf2021-11It is suggested that pharmaceutical manufacturers should pay more attention to ADR monitoring among the public ，consider increasing multiple reporting channels while ensuring the smoothness of channels ，strengthen the training of employee ’s information collection ability to improve the quality of information ，timely feed back the ADR information reported by the public ， and increase the feedback content concerned by the public.

OBJECTIVE To provide re ference for accurate measurem ent of population health status ，pharmacoeconomic evaluation and guidance of health resource allocation. METHODS Using quota and convenient sampling ，five administrative villages were selected from the rural areas under the jurisdiction of Liuzhi special zone ，Qianxi city and Jianhe county of Guizhou province from July to September 2020. Based on the gender and age ratio quota of rural population in the results of the national census，330 respondents were selected for questionnaire survey. The contents of the questionnaire included the self-made scale containing sociodemographic characteristics and general health information ，five-level EuroQoL five-dimension questionnaire （EQ-5D-5L，hereinafter referred to as the “new dimension scale ”）with cognitive dimensions （including attention ，memory， computing ability and learning ability ）and mini-mental state examination （MMSE）. The effects of reliability ，validity and new dimensions of new dimension scale on respond ents’quality of life were investigate ，and its measurement characteristics were verified；the application value of it in pharmacoeconomic hy_cheer@126.com evaluation and guiding the allocation of health resources were explored. RESULTS A total of 330 questionnaires weredistributed，320 were recovered and 320 were effective. The recovery rate and effective rate were 96.97％ and 100％ respectively. The ceiling effect of new dimension scale was 13.44％，the split-half reliability was 0.821，and the overall Cronbach ’s α was 0.852. Exploratory factor analysis showed that the new dimension scale was loaded with physiological ，cognitive and psychological factors ，and the cumulative contribution rate was 69.35％. The correlation coefficient between the new dimension and the dimension of MMSE scale were 0.19-0.61，showing a moderate or medium to strong correlation （P＜0.01）. Compared with EQ- 5D-5L，after adding each dimension ，the interpretation ability of the regression model was improved by 5.00％-17.50％. CONCLUSIONS The new dimension scale has high feasibility ，good reliability and validity ，significantly reduces the ceiling effect of EQ- 5D-5L，has higher sensitivity to the evaluation of people ’s quality of life，and can better evaluate the quality of life of rural population. It is suggested that it can be applied for quality of life evaluation，intervention effect analysis and related economic evaluation.
