Objective:To investigate the role of miRNA-4298/PADI4/p53 signal axis in mediating 4f-induced apoptosis of leukemia cells.Methods:The cell growth density was observed under inverted microscope and the proliferation of leukemia cells was detected by CCK-8 counting assay. The expression of PADI4 and P53 at mRNA level was detected by qRT-PCR. Cell cycle and apoptosis were measured with flow cytometry. The expression of PADI4, P53, Bcl-2, Bax, caspase-3 and caspase-9 at protein level was detected by Western blot. Differential miRNA and mRNA expression profiles was detected by next generation sequencing. Databases such as TargetScan were used to predict the potential upstream and downstream genes of PADI4. A luciferase reporter assay was used to detect the 3′UTR of PADI4 targeted by miRNA-4298. Cell transfection assay was used to detect the effect siRNA, PADI4 vector, miRNA mimics and miRNA inhibitor in interference and rescue.Results:Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) inhibitor 4f could inhibit the proliferation of THP-1, K562 and U937 cells, and induce the apoptosis of these leukemia cells. It downregulated the expression of PADI4 mainly through the binding activity of miRNA-4298 to miRNA sponges, which resulted in the proliferation inhibition and apoptosis of leukemia cells. The inhibited proliferation and apoptosis of leukemia cells by 4f were associated with the increase of P53 expression after the decrease of PADI4 expression. The PADI4-dependent upregulation of P53 led to the ratio inversion of downstream Bcl-2/Bax, which activated caspase-3 or caspase-9 to induce the apoptosis of leukemia cells.Conclusions:The apoptosis of leukemia cells induced by Nrf2 inhibitor 4f was mainly associated with the miRNA-4298/PADI4/p53 axis, suggesting that it might be a novel signaling pathway for targeted therapy.

Objective: To comprehensively understand the disinfection quality of secondary and primary schools and kindergartens in Wuxi, so as to find out problems and to provide advice for improvement. Methods: Stratified random sampling method was applied in the investigation to select 73 schools and classes. The qualities of room air, surface of object, hand hygiene of staff, tableware, ultraviolet lamp and disinfectant in use (including bacterial contamination and concentration of chlorine-containing) were all tested. Results: A total of 2 563 samples were collected with the total disinfection qualified rate 88.02%. The qualified rates of kindergarten, primary and secondary schools were 87.89%, 90.67% and 85.83% respectively. The rates of Xishan and Jiangyin districts were 75.24% and 75.89% respectively. The quality of urban schools was better than the rural(χ 2=16.57, P<0.01). There was no statistical significance between public and private schools (χ 2=0.01, P=0.92). The rank of qualified rates of different objects was: bacterial contamination (100.00%) > room air (93.13%) > tableware (91.87%) > surface of object (89.40%) > ultraviolet lamp (84.00%) > concentration of chlorine-containing (73.68%) > hand hygiene of staff (73.53%). The quality of secondary schools was lower than kindergartens and primary schools in the aspects of room air and surface of object. Conclusion The disinfection quality of secondary and primary schools and kindergartens in Wuxi is good in general. More attention should be paid on hand hygiene, concentration of chlorine-containing and ultraviolet lamp. The qualities of room air and surface of object of secondary schools need to be improved.

Objective:To observe the adverse reactions of Diphtheria, Tetanus, Acellular Pertussis and Haemophilus Influenzae Type b Combined Vaccine conjugate vaccine at the anterolateral thigh muscle, upper arm deltoid muscle and upper gluteal region.Methods:A total of 12 241 infants who were voluntarily vaccinated DTaP-Hib from April 2015 to April 2019 in Beijing were selected for the study. DTaP-Hib vaccine is recommended for 3, 4, 5 months of age for basic immunization and 18 to 24 months of age to strengthen immunization. Subjects were divided into the groups of lateral thigh muscle, the upper arm deltoid and upper gluteal region according to the actual inoculation sites. Adverse reactions were collected within 30 minutes and 7 days after each does of vaccination at different sites and compared between three groups. The incidence of adverse reactions at the three different inoculation sites was compared by Chi-square test.Results:A total of 12 241 infants and toddlers received combined DTaP-Hib and 35 027 doses of DTaP-Hib were investigated. The number and of lateral thigh muscles, upper arm deltoids and gluteal muscles were 3 461 infants and 11 129 doses, 2 659 infants and 7 957 doses, 6 121 infants and 15 941 doses respectively. A total of 2 489 adverse reactions occurred. The incidence of adverse reactions was 7.11%. The incidence of adverse reactions in deltoid muscle of upper arm was 9.69%（771 doses）, which was higher than that in gluteal muscle (7.58%, 1 211 doses) and anterolateral muscle of thigh (4.56%, 507 doses). The incidence of mild, moderate and severe adverse reactions in the upper arm deltoid group were higher than those in the other two groups. The incidence rates were 4.85% (386 doses), 3.77% (300 doses) and 1.07% (85 doses) respectively. The differences between groups were statistically significant（ P<0.001）. The total adverse reactions of the three doses of basic immunization and the fourth dose of enhanced immunization had the same trend in different parts. The incidence of adverse reactions was in the order of the upper arm deltoid injection, upper gluteal injection and lateral thigh muscle injection from high to low. The differences were statistically significant ( P<0.001). Conclusion:The incidence of adverse reactions of DTaP-Hib vaccination in three different sites was low, which confirmed that the DTaP-Hib vaccination got expected safety regardless of the sites of inoculation. The lateral femoral muscle group had the lowest incidence of adverse reactions, hence it should be preferred as the inoculation site of DTaP-Hib vaccination.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the clinical outcomes of ileal D-pouch anal anastomosis in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP).

METHODSClinical and follow-up data of 6 UC patients and 5 FAP patients undergoing proctocolectomy and D-ileum pouch anal anastomosis between October 2014 and March 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. End-to-side anastomosis was firstly performed in ileal cutting end and ileum, then side-to-side anastomosis was operated in closing amphi-loop to construct the D-ileum pouch.

RESULTSThe mean age of the patients was 42 years (range 18 to 61 years), 5 patients were female. The duration of surgery was (225±23) min, the operation time to D-ileum pouch was (18±4) min, the volume of D-ileum pouch was (175±15) ml, the blood loss was (110±30) ml. There was no procedure-related death, however rectum perforation occurred in 1 male UC patient during operation. The postoperative hospital stay was 8 to 11 days (mean 8.5 days). The follow-up period was 2 to 7 months (median 3 months). One female FAP patient suffered from anal anastomosis vagina fistula 21 days after operation. No pouch-related fistula, anastomosis or input loop stricture fecal incontinence, and severe pouchitis were recorded. The defecation frequency was 4 to 6 times per day (UC) and 3 to 5 times per day (FAP) 6 months after operation. No night-time fecal leakage was complained in those patients. Wexner incontinence score was 3±2 and GQLI was 114±11 one month after operation. Clinical outcome in the first month was excellent in 10 patients and good in 1 patient.

CONCLUSIONSAfter total colorectal resection for UC and FAP patients, application of D-ileum pouch can clear ileal stump of pouch and avoid the pouch-associated complications effectively.

A simple and green method for the determination of trace bisphenol A( BPA) was established by coupling supported ionic liquid solid phase extraction to β-cyclodextrin modified ionic liquid carbon paste electrode-based electrochemical detection ( SILs-SPE-ED) . The synthesized imidazolium ionic liquid modified styrene type macroporous resin was used as adsorbent for SPE of BPA. The critical parameters that affect the extraction efficiency were optimized, including 0. 4 g of packing material quantity, 200 mL of sample solution at pH 7. 0, 5 mL of methanol as an eluent solvent, and 4. 5 mL/min of the SPE flow rate. Dynamic adsorption test showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of BPA on the SILs-SPE cartridge was 10. 1 mg/g, and the enrichment factor was 40 . The calibration curve showed a good linearity between the anodic current and the BPA concentration in the range of 1. 0×10-8-1. 0×10-6 mol/L (i. e. 2. 3-228μg/L). The detection limit was 4. 16×10-9 mol/L (equal to 0. 95 μg/L). The SILs-SPE-ED method was applied to the analysis of water and plastic samples and the results agreed well with HPLC method.
