Objective To explore the potential mechanism of Benzo(K)fluoranthene(BkF)on male reproductive injury in mice by proteomics and metabolomics.Methods Twenty healthy and clean male Kunming mice(6 weeks old,18±2 g)were randomly divided into control group(corn oil group),low-,medium-and high-dose BkF groups(7.5,15.0 and 30.0 mg/kg),with 5 mice in each group.The corresponding agents were gavaged at a dose of 10 mL/kg,5 d per week,for 35 consecutive days.After modeling,the rats were fasted for 10 h,and then sperm samples and testicular tissues were harvested.Computer assisted sperm analysis(CASA)was used to detect and analyze semen parameters.HE staining was employed to observe the histopathological structure of the testicular tissue.Bioinformatics analysis was applied to analyze the differential protein pathways.Volcano plot were conducted to analyze the top 10 differentially expressed proteins(DEPs)in the control and high-dose BkF group.Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS)untargeted metabolomics techniques were utilized to screen out differential metabolites.KEGG signaling pathway and KEGG annotation analyses and GO enrichment analysis were used to analyze the differential metabolites.Results Compared with the control group,the sperm number and motility of BkF-treated mice showed a decreased trend,with statistical differences(P＜0.05).Pathological observation showed that BkF treatment resulted in dilated seminal tubules and badly-arranged spermatogenic cells when compared with the control group.Proteomics analysis found that the protein levels of Spata46 and Rab5b were decreased,while those of Zscan21 and Aifm2 were increased(P＜0.01).Proteomic KEGG enrichment analysis showed that it was mainly involved in phagosome,protein export,ribosome and other pathways.GO enrichment analysis indicated that it was mainly involved in male meiosis I,histone acetylation,regulation of p53 signaling pathway,positive regulation of cell cycle,positive regulation of cell death and other signaling pathways.Metabonomics KEGG displayed that amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism were most closely related to other metabolic pathways.Conclusion Proteomics and metabolomics analyses show that BkF exposure is associated with spermatogenesis,apoptosis and cell cycle,DNA damage,amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism.

Objective:To investigate the relationships between the expression level of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) in HER2-positive breast cancer and the characteristics of ultrasound imaging and mammography.Methods:The imaging data of 486 patients with HER2-positive breast cancer treated in the Harbin Medical University Cancer Hospital from January 2014 to December 2021 were retrospectively collected. The relationships between the expression level of HER2 and the imaging features of breast ultrasound and mammography were analyzed.Results:49.38% (240/486) of HER2-positive breast cancer patients were HER2 2+, and 50.62% (246/486) of HER2-positive breast cancer patients were HER2 3+. The age of HER2 2+ patients [ (52.88±1.16) years] was older than the age of HER2 3+ patients [ (49.59±1.00) years], and there was a statistically significant difference ( t=18.07, P<0.001) . There was a statistically significant difference of menstrual status between HER2 2+ patients and HER2 3+ patients ( χ2=4.42, P=0.036) . There were statistically significant differences in the ultrasonography showed burr sign ( χ2=8.37, P=0.010) , posterior echo ( χ2=9.68, P=0.017) , axillary lymph node enlargement ( χ2=15.77, P<0.001) between HER2 2+ patients and HER2 3+ patients. There was a statistically significant difference in the mammography showed whether there were lumps between HER2 2+ patients and HER2 3+ patients ( χ2=15.81, P<0.001) . Conclusion:The expression level of HER2 in HER2-positive breast cancer patients is related to burr sign, posterior echo, and axillary lymph node enlargement shown by ultrasound, as well as lumps shown by mammography, which can provide certain information for clinical prediction of malignant degree of breast cancer, prognosis and individualized treatment plan.

Objective:To understand the clinical research knowledge, attitude and practice of pediatrics residents in standardized residency training, and to provide scientific basis for improving their capability of clinical medical scientific research.Methods:A self-complied questionnaire survey including demographic information, knowledge and attitudes toward capability of medical scientific research as well as personal interview was conducted in 22 pediatric residents during the standardized residency training from April to July, 2017. Data were analyzed by (mean±standard deviation) and percentage for description, and qualitative data were analyzed by classification and induction. SPSS 18.0 was used to analyze the data.Results:Firstly, the total score of basic knowledge in clinical scientific research was (54.14±23.06), with the scores between 31 and 60 being the most. Secondly, all these residents believed that capability of clinical medical scientific research was very important for them and clinical research training was necessary for them during the standardized residency training. Thirdly, the residents had the scientific research practices but no article published during the standardized residency training. Fourthly, the residents hoped to improve their capability of clinical scientific research by various means during the training.Conclusion:It is indicated that basic knowledge on capability of clinical medical research is still insufficient in standardized residency training of pediatrics residents, so relevant measures should be taken to cultivate their capability of clinical scientific research.

Objective To explore the clinical features of critical cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Methods The clinical data of nine patients who were diagnosed with critical COVID-19 in Hainan General Hospital from January 21, 2020 to February 6, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. RT-PCR testing for 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) was performed with multi-sites synchronize specimens including pharyngeal swab, blood, excrement, and urine. The serum levels of leucocyte, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin and lactic acid between the improved group (five cases) and the deteriorated group (four cases) were compared. The t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between groups. Results There were eight males (88.9%) and 1 female enrolled. The patients aged 28-77 years old, with an age of (52.9±18.0) years. By March 4, 2020, all five cases in improved group were cured and discharged, three cases in deteriorated group died and 1case remained in critical condition. All multi-sites specimens of patients in improved group turned negative in 2-4 weeks of illness onset, while those of cases in deteriorated group showed sustained viral nucleic acid positive (up to 48th day of illness onset). The white blood cell counts ((13.52±8.24)×10 9 /L vs (10.49±4.46) ×10 9 /L), C-reactive protein ((139.71±87.46) mg/L vs (78.60±55.40) mg/L) and procalcitonin ((2.32±4.03) ng/mL vs (0.28±0.58) ng/mL) , lactic acid ((3.70±4.14) mmol/L vs (2.33±0.53) mmol/L) in deteriorated group were all significantly higher than those in improved group ( t =2.908, 5.009, 4.391 and 2.942, respectively, all P <0.01). A rapid rise of serum IL-6 level up to 8 500 pg/mL was observed in one patient three days prior to death. Conclusion Among the patients with critical COVID-19, serum levels of inflammatory cytokines of the death cases are higher than those of improved and discharged cases.

Objective To explore application on improving basic knowledge of clinical scientific research based on PDCA circle in the standardized training of pediatrics residents and to provide scientific basis for improving the capability of clinical scientific research in standardized training of pediatrics residents. Methods Based on previous research results, the training courses of improving the capability of clinical scientific research based on conception of PDCA were practiced . The examination of basic knowledge of clinical scientific research before and after training and satisfaction questionnaire in pattern, contents , time arrangements as well as effect of training courses were conducted among 22 pediatrics residents from April to July, 2017. Data were analyzed using Mean, Standard deviation and proportion for description and the data before and after training were given a independent-sample t test. The training courses were taken for 3 months. Results ①Compared with the training courses before, the average scores of basic knowledge in capability of clinical scientific research were improved after training [(54.14±23.06) vs. (73.63±21.05)]. ②Insufficiency of some basic clinical scientific research knowledge still existed and there was no statistical difference between the results before and after the training in those areas. ③ In the standardized training, pediatrics residents were satisfied with the pattern, contents and results of training courses, except for the time arrangement. Conclusion The training courses based on PDCA circle can significantly improve the capability of clinical scientific research in the standardized training of pediatrics residents.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of patients with acute stage brucellosis in Shenzhen,and provide a scientific basis for prevention and control of brucellosis in immigrant city.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted to collect clinical data of patients with brucellosis admitted to the Department of Infectious Diseases,Shenzhen People's Hospital from May 2013 to May 2018.The patient's epidemiology manifestations,pathogen and laboratory examination results,diagnosis and treatment outcomes and prognosis were analyzed.Results Among the 39 patients with brucellosis,males were predominant,with a male to female ratio of 1.4 ∶ 1.0 (23 ∶ 16),an age of (44.91 ± 17.18) years and 24 cases were non-Guangdong natives.There were 23 cases with epidemiological history,including 14 cases with mutton,sheep viscera and goat milk history;the disease occurred throughout the year,mainly from February to July,a total of 26 cases.The clinical manifestations of the patients were mainly fever,sweating,fatigue,joint and muscle pain,weight loss,and liver or spleen or lymph nodes swelling.The blood culture was identified as 38 cases of Brucella melitensis and 1 case of Brucella suis.All strains were sensitive to common antibiotics in vitro.All cases were diagnosed as acute stage of brucellosis,2 cases with orchitis,1 case with brucellosis meningoencephalitis,3 cases with spondylitis,and 3 cases with misdiagnosis.Thirty-nine patients were cured according to the "Brucellosis Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines (Trial)" and were followed up for 1 year.Conclusions Patients with brucellosis in Shenzhen are mainly infected with Brucella melitensis;fever,sweating,joint and muscle pain are the main clinical symptoms;the patient's efficacy and prognosis are better after treatment;for the occurrence of occasional misdiagnosis,it is recommended that in immigrant cities,medical staff should strengthen their understanding of brucellosis.

Objective: To understand the epidemiological and clinical features of patients with hemorrhagic fever and renal syndrome (HFRS) in Shenzhen, and to accumulate experience in the diagnosis and treatment of HFRS in this area. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted by collecting the clinical data from 46 patients who were confirmed with HFRS and admitted to the Department of Infectious Diseases of Shenzhen People's Hospital from January 2015 to December 2018. The demographic characteristics, epidemiological, clinical manifestations, examinations, treatments and prognosis, and other characteristics were analyzed. Results: All the 46 patients with HFRS were residens in Shenzhen, with a male-to-female ratio of 6.67∶1.00(40∶6), aged (40.18 ± 15.63) years old, and 38 patients (82.61%) aged 23-45 years old. There were 41 patients (89.13%) with a history of HFRS epidemiology, and there were mice in their houses or workplaces. The houses of 39 patients (84.78%) were rented, and 34 patients(87.18%) rented their houses in urban villages. There were morbidity throughout the year, and 33 patients (71.74%) were ill from January to June. In clinical classification, 44 cases (95.65%) were mild, 2 cases (4.35%) were medium, and there were no severe or critical cases. The clinical manifestations were that all patients were hospitalized due to fever mainly with hyperthermia. Thirty-nine patients (84.78%) were presented with systemic aches, headaches, low back pain and eyelid pain, and 28 patients (60.87%) had skin and mucous membrane hyperemia flushing. Clinical stages showed that all patients had pyretogenesis stage and polyuria stage, including pyretogenesis stage [(7.34 ± 6.82) d], polyuria stage [(9.94 ± 5.77) d], only 4.35% (2/46) patients with hypotension shock stage, all patients did not have oliguric stage. On the next day of admission, the number of white blood cells in 46 patients was (8.17 ± 3.19) × 10⁹/L, and 38 cases (82.61%) in the normal range; platelet was (61.92 ± 32.53) × 10⁹/L, and 42 cases (91.30%) were decreased; the procalcitonin was (1.62 ± 0.38) ng/ml, and 41 cases (89.13%) were increased; C-reactive protein was (74.33 ± 30.48) mg/L, and 46 patients (100.00%) were elevated; creatinine was (176.25 ± 55.15) μmol/L, and 19 cases (41.30%) were increased. Abnormal liver function was manifested by increased enzymology, alanine aminotransferase was (137.58 ± 46.76) U/L, and aspartate aminotransferase was (129.82 ± 40.29) U/L. All patients were positive for Hantavirus IgM. B-ultrasound results showed that in 58.70% (27/46) patients, both kidneys were plump and the parenchymal echo was enhanced. Liver injury occurred in 39 patients (84.78%) and sinus bradycardia in 2 patients (4.35%). All the 46 patients were clinically cured. Conclusion The epidemiological characteristics of patients with HFRS in Shenzhen are typical, the clinical manifestations are mild, and the curative effect and prognosis are good.

Objective To describe the clinical features,diagnosis and treatment of osteomyelitis caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei.Methods Three cases of osteomyelitis caused by B.pseudomallei were treated in Haikou People's Hospital affiliated to Xiangya Medical College of Central South University from April 2007 to April 2017.The clinical data were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively.Relevant reports of osteomyelitis due to B.pseudomallei in China and abroad from 2007 to 2017 were comprehensively reviewed.Results The clinical manifestations included hot feeling,redness,swelling,and pain at site of infection.The infection usually occurred in tibia,femur,and skull bone.There were usually multiple lesions,frequently involving spleen,soft tissue and joints.The main imaging finding was osteomyelitis.The diagnosis was confirmed by bacterial culture in all patients.Antimicrobial therapy combined with surgical intervention was the most common approach in the stage of intensive treatment.Ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and carbapenems were the mostly used antibiotics.However,in the stage of bacterial eradication,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and doxycycline were used.The duration of treatment was very long in both stages.The recurrence was low after standard treatment.Conclusions The osteomyelitis caused by B.pseudomallei lacks specific clinical manifestation.Imaging techniques can identify the site of infection,and bacterial culture helps confirm the diagnosis.Timely and effective antimicrobial therapy combined with surgical intervention can reduce mortality.Full course and standard anti-infective therapy may prevent recurrence.

Currently,surgical treatments in tennis elbow include open,arthroscopic and percutaneous procedures.Open surgery,having definite curative effects,is commonly used.There are different surgical methods based on different hypotheses about the pathogenesis of tennis elbow,such as detachment of common extensor origin,resection of annular ligament,denervation surgery and resection of microvascular nerve bundle.There is a huge difference in open surgery of tennis elbow between China and abroad.Debriding or releasing extensor carpi radialis brevis and common extensor tendon are mostly used abroad though it remains controversial whether we should release or debride with tendon,as well as whether it is better to decorticate on lateral epicondyle or not.In China,tennis elbow is treated with resection of microvascular nerve bundle except for debridement and release of tendon.As for evaluation criteria,the following methods,grip strength,grading system and visual analogue scale have been used in researches.However,cure rate and response rate are valuation criteria for resection of microvascular nerve bundle in China.The evaluation criteria are different among various surgical methods,even in the methods,especially for grading system.Each research has unique standards to define excellent,good,fair and poor outcomes.Complications of tennis elbow open surgery are rare,while subcutaneous hematoma is the common complication.

Objective To study the predictive validity of fidgety general movement assessment in pre-term twins and multiplets for motor development outcomes.Methods A total of 53 pre-term twins or multiplets delivered between July 2011 and February 2016 participated in this study.They were assessed using a general movements (GM) assessment and participated in the follow-up program until one year old.The motor development outcomes of the infants at one year old were determined according to clinical diagnoses and the Peabody developmental motor scale number two (PDMS-2) evaluation.The predictive validity of fidgety general movement assessment for motor development outcomes was calculated against the standard motor development of infants at one year old.Results There were 53 twins or multiplets who accepted the GM assessment of fidgety movement period.Of these,43 were assessed as normal (NF) and ten (19％) as lacking a normal level of fidgety movement (F-).All 53 cases were followed-up for the motor development outcome.Forty-three cases (81.1％) were assessed as normal at one year old,while ten (18.9％) were assessed as abnormal.All ten had cerebral palsy,and no motor development retardation was found.The predictive value of F-for cerebral palsy was 90.0％ in terms of sensitivity,97.7％ in terms of specificity,90.0％ in positive predictive value,and 97.7％ in terms of negative predictive value.Conclusions Among pre-term twins or multiplets,the fidgety general movement assessment can be a useful early indicator of motor development difficulties.
