Objective To identify clinical risk factors for early major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) following surgical correction of supravalvar aortic stenosis (SVAS). Methods Patients who underwent SVAS surgical correction between 2002 and 2019 in Beijing and Yunnan Fuwai Cardiovascular Hospitals were included. The patients were divided into a MACEs group and a non-MACEs group based on whether MACEs concurring during postoperative hospitalization or within 30 days following surgical correction for SVAS. Their preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative clinical data were collected for multivariate logistic regression. Results This study included 302 patients. There were 199 males and 103 females, with a median age of 63.0 (29.2, 131.2) months. The incidence of early postoperative MACEs was 7.0% (21/302). The multivariate logistic regression model identified independent risk factors for early postoperative MACEs, including ICU duration (OR=1.01, 95%CI 1.00-1.01, P=0.032), intraoperative cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time (OR=1.02, 95%CI 1.01-1.04, P=0.014), aortic annulus diameter (OR=0.65, 95%CI 0.43-0.97, P=0.035), aortic sinus inner diameter (OR=0.75, 95%CI 0.57-0.98, P=0.037), and diameter of the stenosis (OR=0.56, 95%CI 0.35-0.90, P=0.016). Conclusion The independent risk factors for early postoperative MACEs include ICU duration, intraoperative CPB time, aortic annulus diameter, aortic sinus inner diameter, and diameter of the stenosis. Early identification of high-risk populations for MACEs is beneficial for the development of clinical treatment strategies.

Glioma is a common primary malignant brain tumor. At present, the main clinical treatment is surgical resection combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Due to the selective permeability of the blood-brain barrier and the characteristics of multi-drug resistance of tumor cells, the therapeutic effect is not ideal. In recent years, studies have found that borneol could open the blood-brain barrier and promote the infiltration of chemotherapy drugs. When borneol is combined with or co-carried with chemotherapy drugs, chemotherapy drugs could target more glioma tissues and increase efficacy. The preclinical studies on the combination of borneol and chemotherapy drugs in recent years were reviewed in this article, in order to provide useful reference for the treatment of glioma.

Objective:To analyze the biological characteristics, phylogenic features and clinical significance of SQ219 and SQ220 isolated from clinical sputum and midstream urine specimens.Methods:The culture and biochemical characteristics of the two strains were observed. VITEK2 System, drug sensitivity testing and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry were used for bacterial identification. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA and core genome was performed. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) based on whole genome sequences was calculated.Results:SQ219 and SQ220 were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, and non-motile bacteria. Their optimum growth was observed in NaCl-free medium at 30℃ and pH7. Flexirubin-type pigments were produced by SQ220 on Colombia blood agar, but not by SQ219. Both SQ219 and SQ220 were resistant to aztreonam, amikacin, tobramycin and colistin, which was consistent with the drug resistance phenotype of genus Chryseobacterium. The genome sequences of SQ219 and SQ220 were 5.08 Mb and 4.80 Mb in length, and the G+ C contents were 36.72% and 36.36%, respectively. Both strains carried β-lactam resistance gene ( blaCGA). 16S rRNA phylogenetic analysis showed that SQ219 and SQ220 were closely related to Chryseobacterium gambrini DSM18014 T with the similarities of 98.93% and 98.36%, respectively. Core genome phylogenetic analysis revealed that SQ219 and SQ220 were highly homologous to Chryseobacterium gambrini DSM18014 T. However, the ANI values between the two strains and Chryseobacterium gambrini DSM18014 T were 92.49% and 93.27%, respectively, below the threshold for prokaryotic species identification. Conclusions:Based on the phenotypic and phylogenetic data, SQ219 and SQ220 represent a novel species of the genus Chryseobacterium. This study would help promote the understanding of the evolution of Chrysobacterium and provide reference for the identification of new species of Chrysobacterium.

More than 85% of patients with uveal melanoma (UM) carry a GNAQ or GNA11 mutation at a hotspot codon (Q209) that encodes G protein α subunit q/11 polypeptides (Gαq/11). GNAQ/11 relies on palmitoylation for membrane association and signal transduction. Despite the palmitoylation of GNAQ/11 was discovered long before, its implication in UM remains unclear. Here, results of palmitoylation-targeted mutagenesis and chemical interference approaches revealed that the loss of GNAQ/11 palmitoylation substantially affected tumor cell proliferation and survival in UM cells. Palmitoylation inhibition through the mutation of palmitoylation sites suppressed GNAQ/11Q209L-induced malignant transformation in NIH3T3 cells. Importantly, the palmitoylation-deficient oncogenic GNAQ/11 failed to rescue the cell death initiated by the knock down of endogenous GNAQ/11 oncogenes in UM cells, which are much more dependent on Gαq/11 signaling for cell survival and proliferation than other melanoma cells without GNAQ/11 mutations. Furthermore, the palmitoylation inhibitor, 2-bromopalmitate, also specifically disrupted Gαq/11 downstream signaling by interfering with the MAPK pathway and BCL2 survival pathway in GNAQ/11-mutant UM cells and showed a notable synergistic effect when applied in combination with the BCL2 inhibitor, ABT-199, in vitro. The findings validate that GNAQ/11 palmitoylation plays a critical role in UM and may serve as a promising therapeutic target for GNAQ/11-driven UM.

Objective:
To investigate oral health related quality of life and associated factors of adolescents between 12 and 15 years old, and to provide countermeasures and suggestions for oral health promotion of adolescents.
Methods:
This cross-sectional study recruited 3 840 adolescents aged 12-15 through multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method. The oral clinical examination and oral health questionnaire were conducted. Descriptive analysis, non-parametric testing and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the oral health-related quality of life and associated factors.
Results:
Oral problems showed moderate to severe impact on quality of life,especially on eating (27.1%). Ordinal Logistic regression analysis showed that low sugar intake frequency, few teeth with gingival bleeding, no history of dental pain in the past 12 months,no history of tooth injuries, and administrative region of residence (Nanhai, Shunde) were associated with higher oral health-related quality of life,(OR=0.6-0.8,P<0.05).
Conclusion
The oral health-related quality of life of adolescents in Foshan was slightly better than the average national level. It is recommended to accurately formulate and ensure the full implementation of oral public health measures based on the comprehensive analysis of the local area, and combine various efforts to strengthen education on reducing excessive intake of sugar, prevent gingival bleeding, relieve and treat toothache in time, pay attention to adolescents with histories of dental trauma, and update the concepts of receiving oral health examination for the adolescents themselves, parents and teachers, and help adolescents develop the habit of regular oral examinations.

Objective:To investigate the effect of early acupuncture treatment on limb function in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI).Methods:A total of 114 patients with first-episode ACI in our hospital from March 2018 to March 2019 were selected and randomly divided into three groups, 38 cases in each group. The control group was treated with conventional western medicine therapy, while the experimental group A and group B were given acupuncture treatment on the basis of the control group. The group A started treatment at 3rd days and the group B started at 10th day after admission. All three groups were treated for 2 weeks. The National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) was used to evaluate the degree of neurological deficit. The Fugl Meyer assessment of motor function (FAM) was used to evaluate the motor function. The Barthel Index (BI) was used to evaluate the activities of daily living, and the rehabilitation status was evaluated according to muscle strength grading. The levels of nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were detected by ELISA to evaluate the clinical efficacy.Results:The total effective rate was 94.7% (36/38) in group A, 84.2% (30/38) in group B and 73.7% (22/38) in control group. The difference was statistically significant ( χ2=14.748, P<0.01). After treatment, NIHSS scores of three groups were significantly decreased ( F=97.619, P<0.01), and the scores of FAM, BI and muscle strength in group A were significantly lower than those in the group B ( t=12.580, P<0.01); FAM, BI scores and muscle strength of three groups were significantly increased ( F=134.525, 35.100, 164.160, all Ps<0.001), and those of group A were significantly higher than those in group B ( t=8.634, 7.260, 20.305, all Ps<0.001). After treatment, serum NGF (148.80 ± 22.17 pg/ml, 132.14 ± 20.40 pg/ml vs. 125.82 ± 18.31 pg/ml, F=12.926), BDNF (5.01 ± 1.14 ng/ml, 4.10 ± 1.09 ng/ml vs. 3.92 ± 0.95 ng/ml, F=11.481) in the group A and group B were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.01), and serum NGF, BDNF in group A were significantly lower than those in the group B ( t=5.046, 5.277, all Ps<0.01). Conclusions:Early acupuncture treatment can increase the levels of serum NGF and BDNF, promote the recovery of nerve factors and limb function, and the curative effect of acupuncture treatment starting at 3rd days after admission is better than 10th day.

Objective:To understand the molecular evolutionary and genetic differences of South-East Asian dodeca RNA viruses (Seadornavirus).Methods:The homology, phylogeny, physicochemical properties, epitope prediction, tertiary structure and surface charge distribution were analyzed based on genome sequence of Seadornavirus capsid proteins.Results:The time of most recent common ancestor (tMRCA) of Seadornavirus was estimated to be about 2 359 years ago, which were divided into three clusters. Their tMRCA were about 1 338, 499 and 253 years ago, respectively. And their mean substitution rate of Seadornavirus was 3.6×10 -4 n/s/y. The homology of nucleotide and amino acid was 31.3%-100% (μ=68.0%) and 11.9%-100% (μ=56.0%) respectively. Physicochemical properties and epitope analysis showed that the Banna virus (BAV) capsid protein is an acidic hydrophobic protein that there are 6 B cell epitopes and 2 Th epitopes, while Liaoning virus (LNV) and Kadipiro virus (KDV) are alkaline hydrophilic protein that there are 3 and 5 B cell epitopes, respectively. And there is only 1 Th epitope in the capsid protein of LNV, while KDV does not contain this epitope. The tertiary structure and protein surface charge analysis showed that the alpha helices and beta folds of Seadornavirus were different and the BAV contains two distinctly positively charged regions and two negatively charged regions, LNV has only one positively charged region, and KDV has two positively charged regions. Conclusions:Seadornaviruses had more rapid evolution and strong adaptability, and the genome sequences, protein epitopes, physicochemical properties and the tertiary structures between Seadornaviruses are different.

Talent training is the core and foundation of public health system construction. Shortage of talents in the field of disease prevention and public health exposed by COVID-19 pandemic highlights the importance of developing preventive medical education. This article analyzes the challenges of medical education in the dilemma of "separation of medical treatment and prevention", and the new requirements for preventive medical education in the construction of New Medicine under the Healthy China strategy. Four aspects including stepping up the resource allocation and investment, educating responsible public health professionals, the education of all medical students who implement the core competence of public health, and the establishment of a continuing education system for preventive medicine have been considered. A series of specific suggestions are put forward including the establishment of a full-chain closed-loop research system to support the cultivation of top-notch innovative public health talents, strengthening the assessment of core public health capabilities for clinical medical professional admission, formulating a "medical and preventive integration" training program for primary health personnel, and implementing "combination of peace and war" public health personnel reserve system, with the purpose of providing reference for the reform and development of preventive medical education in China.
