Diabetes is a common chronic non-infectious disease. Diabetic patients not only suffer from metabolic disorders, but are also prone to immune deficiencies and are at a higher risk of being infected with human papillomavirus (HPV). Many studies at home and abroad have shown that the HPV infection rate of patients with diabetes is higher than that of non-diabetic patients. Patients with diabetes can benefit from HPV vaccination, and the tolerance is good. HPV vaccination is recommended for diabetic patients. This article reviews the research on diabetes, HPV infection, and HPV vaccine, which will provide references for HPV vaccination in diabetic patients.

Objective To observe the abnormal brain activity in patients with migraine without aura(MwoA)with MRI.Methods Fifty MwoA patients(MwoA group)and 46 healthy volunteers(control group)were prospectively enrolled.Functional MRI(fMRI)was performed to observe the dynamic regional homogeneity(dReHo)of brain regions,then brain regions with differences of dReHo value between groups were extracted,and correlations with clinical scales were analyzed.Results Compared with control group,dReHo values of surrounding cortex of bilateral calcarine fissure and right middle occipital gyrus increased,of right middle temporal gyrus,right middle frontal gyrus and left cuneus decreased in MwoA group(GRF correction,voxel level all P＜0.005,cluster level all P＜0.05).The weight analysis showed that brain regions with top 3 absolute weight values were surrounding cortex of right calcarine fissure,left cuneus and right middle occipital gyrus.dReHo value of surrounding cortex of left calcarine fissure in MwoA patients was negative correlated with self-rating depression scale(SDS)(r=-0.28,P=0.04).Conclusion Abnormalities in the upward transmission pathway of visual information existed in MwoA patient,especially in surrounding cortex of right calcarine fissure,left cuneus and right middle occipital gyrus.

Objective: To explore the growth characteristics of rat calvaria by detecting the calvaria of SD rats in different periods. Methods: The calvaria of SD rats at 1 , 4 , 7 , 10 , and 12 weeks from the same littermate were selected (3 rats per week) . Real⁃time PCR and Western blot techniques were used to detect the expression of focal adhesion kinase ( FAK) Ⅳ phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase/protein kinase B ( PI3K/AKT ) signal pathway in the calvaria , and the role of FAK⁃PI3K/AKT in the growth and development of the calvaria was analyzed by correlation. Results: The increase of brain volume and the thickness of calvaria increased synchronously , the expression of FAK was positively correlated with the changes of meridians , and the expression of FAK was positively correlated with the expression of PI3K/AKT. Conclusion The expression of FAK is related to the growth and development of rat skull. FAK plays a role in calvaria by activating PI3K/AKT signal pathway. FAK may be used as a marker of rapid skull growth and development , which provides a basic theoretical basis for the timing of clinical skull defect repair and treatment.

Background With the change of the national energy development layout, Qingyang has seen a situation where oil exploitation and agriculture go hand in hand, which may lead to local soil pollution if not taken seriously. Objective To evaluate the distribution characteristics, possible sources, and ecological risks of heavy metals in farmland soils around the main production areas of Changqing Oilfield. Methods A total of 60 farmland soil samples were collected from Zhengning County, Zhenyuan County, and Qingcheng County of Qingyang City, and the contents of heavy metals such lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), chromium (Cr), cadmium (Cd), and arsenic (As) in farmland soil were detected according to GB 15618-2018 Soil environmental quality—Risk control standard for soil contamination of agricultural land (on trial). The soil background value of Gansu Province was used as the denominator in the calculation of pollution index, and the pollution characteristics and ecological characteristics of selected five heavy metals in farmland soil were evaluated by single-factor pollution index (P_i), Nemerow comprehensive pollution index (P_N), and potential ecological risk index. Results The levels of Pb, As, and Hg in farmland soils around Changqing Oilfield, the levels of Cr and Cd in Qingcheng County, and the level of Cd in Zhengning County were higher than the corresponding soil background values of Gansu Province, but lower than the national soil environmental quality standard. The single-factor pollution indexes (P_i) were: Hg, 2.14; Pb, 1.24; As, 1.13; Cr, 0.78; Cd, 0.67, which indicated that Hg were graded as moderate pollution, Pb and As were slight pollution, and Cd and Cr were not polluted. The Nemerow comprehensive pollution indexes (P_N) were: Cr, 0.92; Cd, 1.08; As, 1.20; Pb, 1.68; Hg, 3.85, which indicated that Cr was graded as no pollution, Cd, Pb and As were mild pollution, and Hg was severe pollution. The variation coefficients of Hg and Cd in Zhenyuan County and that of Hg in Qingcheng County were 60.00%, 50.00%, and 50.00%, respectively, which were all greater than 50%, indicating that the pollution of above heavy metals in the location was subject to human activities. The potential ecological risk indexes (E_r) of Pb, Cr, Cd, As, and Hg were 6.20, 1.55, 20.05, 11.28, and 81.64, respectively, indicating that Hg was graded as strong ecological risk, and the other four heavy metals were mild ecological risk. The comprehensive potential ecological risk index (R_RI) was 124.48. Combined with the potential ecological risk index of Hg, the comprehensive potential ecological risk of the five heavy metals in local farmland soils was considered to be at a strong ecological risk level. Conclusion Although the average values of selected five heavy metals in farmland soils surrounding the main production areas of Changqing Oilfield are qualified with the national soil environmental quality standards, they exceed corresponding soil background values of Gansu Province, and there are signs of human influence and potential ecological risks of different degrees.

Background::The risk for chronic kidney disease (CKD) is influenced by genetic predisposition, sex, and lifestyle. Previous research indicates that coffee is a potentially protective factor in CKD. The current study aims to investigate whether sex disparity exists in the coffee–CKD association, and whether genetic risk of CKD or genetic polymorphisms of caffeine metabolism affect this association.Methods::A total of 359,906 participants from the UK Biobank who were enrolled between 2006 and 2010 were included in this prospective cohort study, which aimed to estimate the hazard ratios for coffee intake and incident CKD using a Cox proportional hazard model. Allele scores of CKD and caffeine metabolism were additionally adjusted for in a subsample with qualified genetic data ( n = 255,343). Analyses stratified by genetic predisposition, comorbidities, and sex hormones were performed. Tests based on Bayesian model averaging were conducted to ascertain the robustness of the results. Results::Coffee was inversely associated with CKD in a dose-dependent manner. The effects of coffee did not differ across different strata of genetic risk for CKD, but were more evident among slower genetically predicted caffeine metabolizers. Significant sex disparity was observed ( P value for interaction = 0.013), in that coffee drinking was only associated with the risk reduction of CKD in females. Subgroup analysis revealed that testosterone and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), but not estradiol, modified the coffee–CKD association. Conclusions::In addition to the overall inverse coffee–CKD association that was observed in the general population, we could also establish that a sex disparity existed, in that females were more likely to experience the benefit of the association. Testosterone and SHBG may partly account for the sex disparity.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of transperitoneal and retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication in the treatment of simple renal cysts.Methods:PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP and WanFang databases were searched, All studies about comparing transperitoneal and retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication for simple renal cysts were included. The evaluation indicators included operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage time, postoperative hospital stay, and complication rate. Statistical analysis of the data using RevMan 5.3 software.Results:A total of 14 control studies were included, 409 cases in the transperitoneal group and 452 cases in the retroperitoneal group. Meta-analysis demonstrated that compared with the transperitoneal group, the retroperitoneal group had shorter operation time ( MD=8.81, 95% CI: 3.79-13.82, P<0.01), less intraoperative blood loss ( MD=4.89, 95% CI: 1.40-8.38, P<0.01), and shorter postoperative hospital stay ( MD=0.60, 95% CI: 0.24-0.96, P<0.01). However, there were not significant differences between the two approaches in postoperative drainage time ( MD=-0.12, 95% CI: -0.26-0.03, P=0.13) and complication rate ( OR=1.47, 95% CI: 0.48-4.47, P=0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the transperitoneal, the retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication has the advantages of short operation time, less intraoperative blood loss and short postoperative hospital stay. Therefore, retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication is expected to be the first choice for the treatment of simple renal cysts.

A neuroinflammatory response is commonly involved in the progression of many neurodegenerative diseases. Potassium 2-(1-hydroxypentyl)-benzoate (PHPB), a novel neuroprotective compound, has shown promising effects in the treatment of ischemic stroke and Alzheimer׳s disease (AD). In the present study, the anti-inflammatory effects of PHPB were investigated in the plasma and brain of C57BL/6 mice administered a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Levels of iNOS and the cytokines TNF, IL-1and IL-10 were elevated in plasma, cerebral cortex and hippocampus after LPS injection and the number of microglia and astrocytes in cortex and hippocampus were increased. LPS also upregulated the expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in the cortex and hippocampus. PHPB reduced the levels of iNOS and cytokines in the plasma and brain, decreased the number of microglia and astrocytes and further enhanced the upregulation of HO-1. In addition, PHPB inhibited the LPS-induced phosphorylation of ERK, P38 and JNK. These results suggest that PHPB is a potential candidate in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases through inhibiting neuroinflammation.

Objective: To investigate the effect of corticotomy-facilitated orthodontics on the treatment time and final outcome in skeletal class Ⅱ division 1 patients. Methods: Twenty adult skeletal class Ⅱ division 1 patients treated with two maxillary first premolar extractions were included and randomly divided into two groups (the corticotomy group and the control group). The treatment time was recorded and the changes of soft and hard tissue were compared by using three-dimensional measurement and analysis of cone-beam CT images before and after treatment. Results: There was no significant difference in the alignment time between two groups, while the time of maxillary space closure and the total treatment time in corticotomy group ([5.8±1.3] and [24.9±5.1] months, respectively) were shorter than that in the control group ([9.9±1.1] and [30.8±4.6] months, respectively) and the differences were significant (P<0.01). In the corticotomy group, the retraction amount of the upper central in cisal margin, apical tip, supradentale, labrale superius and the increase of nasolabial angle were greater than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions In patients with mild to moderate skeletal class Ⅱ division 1 malocclusion, corticotomy-facilitated orthodontics can not only shorten the treatment time, but is more conductive to the retraction of upper anterior teeth and improvement of the profile.
