Objective:This study aims to obtain the prevalence and features associated with Violence Against Children (VAC) in China and, thus, formulate a prevention strategy.Methods:The mortality-related data of VAC was sourced from the National Disease Surveillance Points System (DSP) during 2013-2021. We analyzed the DSP data regarding children aged 0-17 years old who died from violence. The hospital cases of VAC was sourced from the National Injury Surveillance System (NISS), 2013-2021. We analyzed the data from NISS with the parameter of "intentional injury" caused by VAC in children aged between 0-17 years. Using robust linear regression, we analyze the time trend in the proportion of violence incidence. To understand the variations in the incidence of different types of violence across genders, we apply the chi-square test and adjusted Pearson residuals.Results:The overall trend of death caused by VAC has declined; it was reduced to 0.14/100 000 in 2021 from 0.33/100 000 in 2013. In 2021, male VAC mortality (0.15/100 000) was higher than females (0.13/100 000). The proportion of VAC cases to all injury cases has declined from 3.34% in 2013 to 2.29% in 2021. Among 9 344 VAC cases supervised by hospitals in 2021, the number of males (7 503 cases) was around 4 times that of females (1 841 cases), and the top three modes of violence were blunt tools (64.77%), falls (7.46%) and sharp instruments (6.18%), and 45 cases of sexual violence included 38 girls and 7 boys.Conclusions:The declining death rate due to VAC may be related to the benign development of Chinese society. Prevention strategies targeting training in parenting skills and problem-solving should be prioritized.

BACKGROUND:
Long-term remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has been proven to be beneficial in multiple diseases, such as cerebral and cardiovascular diseases. However, the hyperacute and acute effects of a single RIC stimulus are still not clear. Quantitative proteomic analyses of plasma proteins following RIC application have been conducted in preclinical and clinical studies but exhibit high heterogeneity in results due to wide variations in experimental setups and sampling procedures. Hence, this study aimed to explore the immediate effects of RIC on plasma proteome in healthy young adults to exclude confounding factors of disease entity, such as medications and gender.
METHODS:
Young healthy male participants were enrolled after a systematic physical examination and 6-month lifestyle observation. Individual RIC sessions included five cycles of alternative ischemia and reperfusion, each lasting for 5 min in bilateral forearms. Blood samples were collected at baseline, 5 min after RIC, and 2 h after RIC, and then samples were processed for proteomic analysis using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method.
RESULTS:
Proteins related to lipid metabolism (e.g., Apolipoprotein F), coagulation factors (hepatocyte growth factor activator preproprotein), members of complement cascades (mannan-binding lectin serine protease 1 isoform 2 precursor), and inflammatory responses (carboxypeptidase N catalytic chain precursor) were differentially altered at their serum levels following the RIC intervention. The most enriched pathways were protein glycosylation and complement/coagulation cascades.
CONCLUSIONS
One-time RIC stimulus may induce instant cellular responses like anti-inflammation, coagulation, and fibrinolysis balancing, and lipid metabolism regulation which are protective in different perspectives. Protective effects of single RIC in hyperacute and acute phases may be exploited in clinical emergency settings due to apparently beneficial alterations in plasma proteome profile. Furthermore, the beneficial effects of long-term (repeated) RIC interventions in preventing chronic cardiovascular diseases among general populations can also be expected based on our study findings.

The process of burn wounds healing includes the removal of necrotic tissue, the hyperplasia of granulation tissue and epithelialization. The removal of necrotic tissue is the first step in dealing with burn wounds. Although there are a variety of adjuvant drugs for removing necrotic tissue, surgical debridement is still the main way of debridement of burn wounds. Surgical debridement of burn wounds includes escharectomy, tangential excision and dermabrasion. Escharectomy and tangential excision have been widely used in clinical practice, while dermabrasion has not been known to the majority of burns colleagues. This article summarizes the clinical application and progress of dermabrasion in burn wounds.

To preparate a novel polysulfone chiral membranes, β-cyclodextrin was functionalized with dodecanoyl chloride, and this modified β-cyclodextrin was then incorporated into polysulfone casting solution to form the dodecanoyl-β-cyclodextrin/polysulfone chiral membrane. Meanwhile, current studies have investigated the effect of adding different amount of dodecanoyl-β-cyclodextrin on the pure water flux, bovine serum albumin(BSA)rejection rate and enantioselectivity of the membranes. The morphology of the dodecanoyl-β-cyclodextrin/polysulfone chiral membrane was characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM). With the incorporation of dodecanoyl-β-cyclodextrin, the pore structure of the membrane changed significantly, with more finger-like pore structures appearing in the support layer. So the membrane water flux increased significantly, while the BSA rejection rate decreased. When the addition amount of dodecanoyl-β-cyclodextrin was in the range of 2% to 3. 5%, the enantiomeric excess increased with the addition of dodecanoyl-β-cyclodextrin. A complete separation of racemic tryptophan can be performed using this novel dodecanoyl-β-cyclodextrin/polysulfone chiral membrane-based separation system.

Journal of China Pharmaceutical University 2016;(1):66-72
A pepsin modified poly (glycidyl methacrylate-ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate)(poly (GMA-EDMA)) capillary monolith (32 cm ×75 μm,22cm effective lenth)was applied in exploring the interaction between nefo-pam enantiomers and bovine serum albumin (BSA),mode of frontal analysis was selected to measure the binding constant,number of binding sites and the location of binding sites of BSA to both nefopam enantiomers.The opti-mal CEC conditions obtained were a running buffer consisted of 15 mmol /L ammonium acetate at pH 5.5,separa-tion voltage 5.0 kV,detection wavelength 215 nm,injection 10 kV ×6 s,solvent of samples consisted of 50 mmol/L ammonium acetate at pH 7.4.The results indicated that the monolith could provide a satisfactory resolution between the two enantiomers plateaus,BSA in the binding system didn′t disturb the separation or determination of nefopam enantiomers in electrochromatography.The frontal analysis demonstrated that BSA has only one binding site with both enantiomers,the binding constants (K)were 443 L/mol and 527 L/mol,respectively,and the dis-placement experiments indicated that binding site of both isomers to BSA molecule was the Sudlow siteⅡ.
7.Preparation of bovine serum albumin immobilized chiral monolithic column and its protein bonding quantity
Journal of China Pharmaceutical University 2016;47(2):176-181
Determination of exact total protein bonding quantity is often a key step in the preparation of protein-immobilized chiral monolith. In this study, we developed and evaluated a bovine serum albumin(BSA)modified monolith based on glycidyl methacrylate(GMA)and ethylene dimethacrylate(EDMA)for chiral separation. The epoxy groups of the polymer were used directly for the covalent bonding of BSA. A Coomassie brilliant blue(CBB)protein assay(Bradford method)was established to determine the protein bonding quantity, and the influence of some key aspects such as ionic strength, pH value and reaction time were studied. The method was validated with respect to linearity, precision, accuracy and robustness. The maximum amount of immobilized BSA was 11. 90 mg/g, obtained using 65 ∶35 cyclohexanol/dodecanol as the porogen. The monolith was successfully applied in the chiral separation of R/S-warfarin and D/L-tryptophan in only 1-20 min. Furthermore, the chromatographic conditions like pH and organic additive of the mobile phase were optimized. The chiral separation performance of this BSA-immobilized monolith is positively correlated to the protein bonding quantity.

AIM Here the development of a simple, rapid and simultaneous method for the separation of five ephedrine alkaloids obtained with non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) were reported. The effects of the electrolyte, non-aqueous solvent on the separation were also discussed. METHODS A running buffer of 50 mmol/L ammonium acetate in methanol was found to be the most suitable for this separation. RESULT The best separation was achieved within 8 minutes. CONCLUSION The separation is not only dependent on differences in the pK value of the alkaloids but also on the intramolecular interaction and solvation. So much improved selectivity could be achieved in nonaqueous medium.
