Objective:To investigate the application value of fecal Syndecan-2 (SDC2) gene methylated SDC2 (m SDC2) detection in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening among urban residents in Guangzhou City. Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted in Shitan Town, Zengcheng District, Guangzhou City from July to December 2022. A community-based screening program for CRC was conducted among residents aged 40-74 years old. m SDC2 detection was employed in the participants, and those with positive results should be recommended to receive colonoscopy examination. The positive rate of m SDC2 detection, colonoscopy compliance rate, detection rate of intestinal lesions and clinicopathological characteristics were observed. The relationship between cycle threshold (CT) value of m SDC2 and intestinal lesions was explored. Further, the cost-effectiveness of screening was evaluated. Results:A total of 8 189 fecal samples were collected from 8 877 participants with the recovery rate of 92.25%. 8 048 qualified samples were enrolled in this study, consisted of 3 182 males (39.54%) and 4 866 females (60.46%), with the average age of 56 years old (40-74 years). The positive rate of m SDC2 detection was 7.99% (643/8 048), and the compliance rate of colonoscopy was 73.10% (470/643). 20 cases (4.25%) of colorectal cancer, 109 cases (23.19%) of advanced adenoma, 145 cases (30.85%) of non-advanced adenoma, 79 cases (16.81%) of polyps were detected. The detection rate of intestinal lesions was 75.11% and indicated significant differences in gender and age. 20 CRCs included 15 of stage 0-I, 4 of stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ and 1 of unknown stage. The CT value of m SDC2 was negatively correlated with the proportion of advanced colorectal neoplasms ( χ2=16.063, P<0.001). The total cost of the screening was 4.339 5 million yuan, the screening benefit was 28.506 2 million yuan, and the benefit-cost ratio was 6.57. Conclusion:The CRC screening strategy of fecal m SDC2 detection combined with colonoscopy has high colonoscopy compliance and detection rate of intestinal lesions, which is conducive to the detection of early CRCs, and has good cost-effectiveness. This study suggests that this method may be applied to the general CRC screening in China and contribute to the prevention of CRC. The CT value of m SDC2 may have a certain suggestion on the malignant degree of intestinal tumors.

Objective: To investigate the association between physical activity frequency and anxiety/depression symptoms among college students in Jiangxi Province, so as to provide a basis for the physical and mental health development of adolescents. Methods: From July to October 2023, 5 761 college students from 11 colleges and universities in Jiangxi Province were selected by convenience sampling to conduct an online questionnaire survey regarding physical activity and mental health. Anxiety symptoms and depressive symptoms were assessed by General Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 and Patient Health Questionnaires-9, respectively. Contingency table was used to analyze the distribution of different anxiety and depression symptoms by physical activity frequency, and ordered Logistic regression was used to analyze the association between physical activity frequency with anxiety and depressive symptoms, and stratified analysis was performed based on gender. Results: The detection rate of anxiety symptoms of college students was 43.6% ( n =2 513), and the detection rate of depression symptoms was 63.9% ( n =3 682). There were significant differences in the detection rate of anxiety and depression symptoms among different gender and physical activity frequency groups ( χ 2=15.98, 106.32; 30.65, 150.88, P <0.05). The detection rates of severe anxiety and depression symptoms of male and female who never exercise were higher (severe anxiety: 6.1% for male and 5.2% for female, severe depression: 8.7% for male and 7.4% for female).The results of ordered Logistic regression analysis showed that compared with college students who never exercised, male college students who were physically active almost every day were negatively correlated with mild anxiety and moderate depression symptoms ( OR=0.53，0.33，P <0.05). In addition, male college students who do physical activity 3-4 times a week were negatively correlated with moderate depressive symptoms ( OR =0.43), while male college students who do physical activity 1-2 times a week were negatively correlated with severe depressive symptoms ( OR =0.21) ( P <0.05). Physical activity was negatively correlated with different degress of anxiety and depression symptoms in female college students (anxiety: OR =0.27-0.74, depression: OR =0.18-0.75, P < 0.05). Conclusions The frequency of physical activity in college students (especially female college students) is negatively correlated with anxiety and depressive symptoms. It is suggested to improve the frequency of physical activity to promote physical and mental health.

Objective: To explore the associations of family structure with adolescent mental health and health associated behaviors, to support interventions to decrease the occurrence of psychological problems and adverse health associated behaviors among adolescents in families without two parents. Methods: The multi stage stratified random cluster sampling method was used to select 18 700 adolescents of the 13 districts and cities from Jiangsu Province for a questionnaire survey on mental health and health associated behaviors, to compare differences in mental health and health associated behaviors among adolescents with different family structures. Results: Among the adolescents, 82.1% had two parent families, 8.6% had single mother families, 4.0% had single father families, and 5.3 % had families with both parents absent. After controlling for age, urban/rural areas, gender, academic period and region, Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that compared with adolescents from two parent families, the incidence of depression, social anxiety and bullying on campus of adolescents with single mother families increased significantly( OR=1.31, 1.15, 1.36，P ＜0.05). Compared with adolescents in two parent families, adolescents in families without two parents had significantly more types of health risk behaviors, and those in single mother families had significantly less frequent intake of a healthful diet( OR =0.81), significantly more smoking( OR =1.20), drinking behaviors( OR =1.22), and significantly less moderate intensity physical activity ( OR =0.84) and shorter duration of sleep( OR =0.87)( P <0.05). Conclusion Psychological and health associated problems were significantly higher among adolescents in families without two parents than in those with two parent families. Psychological problems and adverse health associated behaviors were particularly prominent among adolescents in single mother families.

Objective:To study the effect of related laboratory indexes such as glycosylated hemoglobin on the occurrence of complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and to construct a nomogram model.Methods:The clinical data of 203 patients with 2 diabetes mellitus from May 2020 to April 2022 in Quzhou Hospital, Zhejiang Medical and Health Group were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 64 patients had no diabetic complications (control group), and 139 patients had diabetic complications (complication group). The clinical data of the two groups were recorded, and the related influencing factors of complications in patients with type 2 diabetes were analyzed; receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predicting value of significant indexes for the complications in patients with type 2 diabetes; multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors of complications in patients with type 2 diabetes; R language software 4.0 "rms" package was used to construct the nomogram model for predicting the complications in patients with type 2 diabetes, the calibration curve was internally validated, and the decision curve was used to evaluate the predictive efficacy of the nomogram model.Results:The hypertension rate, hyperlipemia rate, course of disease, fasting blood glucose, postprandial 2 h blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin in complication group were significantly higher in those in control group: 44.60% (62/139) vs. 20.31% (13/64), 48.92% (68/139) vs. 25.00% (16/64), (5.42 ± 0.68) years vs. (4.84 ± 0.51) years, (12.60 ± 2.80) mmol/L vs. (10.20 ± 1.90) mmol/L, (16.50 ± 3.10) mmol/L vs. (12.50 ± 2.90) mmol/L and (9.62 ± 1.33)% vs. (7.96 ± 0.85)%, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in gender composition, age, body mass index, smoking rate, drinking rate, albumin and creatinine between the two groups ( P>0.05). ROC curve analysis result showed that the area under the curve of the course of disease, fasting blood glucose, postprandial 2 h blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin for predicting the complications in patients with type 2 diabetes were 0.725, 0.752, 0.830 and 0.861, respectively; the optimal cut-off values were 5 year, 11.8 mmol/L, 15.1 mmol/L and 9.23%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that hypertension, hyperlipemia, course of disease, fasting blood glucose, postprandial 2 h blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin were independent risk factors of complications in patients with type 2 diabetes ( OR = 1.563, 1.692, 1.451, 1.703, 1.506 and 1.805; 95% CI 1.268 to 1.689, 1.483 to 1.824, 1.215 to 1.620, 1.402 to 1.903, 1.303 to 1.801 and 1.697 to 1.926; P<0.05). The hypertension, hyperlipemia, course of disease, fasting blood glucose, postprandial 2 h blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin were used as predictors to construct a nomogram model for predicting the complications in patients with type 2 diabetes. Internal validation result showed that the nomogram model predicted the complications with good concordance in patients with type 2 diabetes (C-index = 0.815, 95% CI 0.796 to 0.843); the nomogram model predicted the complications in patients with type 2 diabetes at a threshold >0.18, provided a net clinical benefit, and all had higher clinical net benefits than hypertension, hyperlipemia, course of disease, fasting blood glucose, postprandial 2 h blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin. Conclusions:The nomogram model constructed based on hypertension, hyperlipemia, course of disease, fasting blood glucose, postprandial 2 h blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin has better clinical value in predicting the complications in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Alzheimer′s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that requires medication to improve patient symptoms, but there is an individual difference in the efficacy. In this paper, the correlation between single nucleotide polymorphism and the drug efficacy of Alzheimer′s disease (AD) in the past 20 years was searched through the databases of China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP Database, Wanfang Database, Pubmed, Springer Link and Cochrane Library with key words of Alzheimer′s disease, drug efficacy, single nucleotide polymorphism. The correlation between AD drug efficacy difference and gene single nucleotide polymorphism was reviewed, including ABCA1, ApoE, ChAT, CHRNA7, IL-6, A2M, CYP2D6, BChE, 5HT2a, PON-1 and ESR1 genes, so as to provide a reference basis for clinicians to select drugs in the treatment of AD.

Objective:To study the patterns of tocilizumab (TCZ) use, its efficacy and safety in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in routine clinical practice.Methods:A total of 407 patients with RA were enrolled from 23 centers and treated with TCZ within 8 weeks prior to the enrollment visit, and were followed for 6-month. The patterns of TCZ treatment at 6 months, the effectiveness and safety outcomes were recorded. Statistical analysis was performed using SAS version 9.4.Results:A total of 396 patients were included for analysis, in which 330 (83.3%) patients received TCZ combined with conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs), and 16.7%(66/396) received TCZ monotherapy. At baseline, TCZ was initiated in 56.6%(224/396) and 9.6%(38/396) of patients after failure of DMARDs and other biological agents (bDMARDs) respectively. During the 6-month follow-up period, the mean frequency of TCZ administration was (3.7±1.6), the mean TCZ dosage was (7.4±1.2) mg/kg, and the mean interval between doses was (40±13) days. 120(25.8%) patients were on TCZ treatment at the end of the study. Improvements in disease activity, systemic symptoms and patient report outcomes were observed at the end of the study. 22.7%(90/396) patients experienced at least one treatment related adverse event, and 8 patients experienced at least one serious adverse event.Conclusion:This study demonstrates that TCZ treatment is effective in patients with RA when being treated for 6 months with an acceptable safety profile. The duration of TCZ treatment needs to be extended.

Objective To study the protective effects ofcatalpol on cardiomyocytes in type 2 diabetic rats.Methods Based on the method of random number table,8-wee k-old SD rats were randomly divided into normal group (10 rats) and experimental group (90 rats).The rats in the experimental group that were fed with high-fat and high-sugar diet for 8 weeks were injected intraperitoneally with STZ (15 mg/kg),with fasting blood glucose≥16.7mmol/L as a model for type 2 diabetes.Then based on fasting blood glucose and body weight,the rats meeting the criteria of type 2 diabete mellitus were randomy divided into five group,namely,the model group,the control group,the low or medium and high doses of the catalpol group,and there were 12 rats in each group.The normal group and the model group were filled with distilled water (5 ml/kg·d,the control group were treated with metformin (90 mg/kg·d),and Low,medium and high dose group were intragastric administration of Catalpol(2.5,5,10 mg/kg·d).Then,the level of glucose,myocardial oxidative stress related protein,cardiac strcture and function change were measured after 12 weeks of intervention in rats.Results Compared with the model group,the level of fasting blood glucose in catalpol low,medium and high dose groups was significantly lower (P＜0.05).The levels of SOD (197.43 ± 8.85 U/ml,186.54 ± 5.89 U/ml,175.62 ± 7.67 U/ml vs.157.75 ±11.29 U/ml) in myocardial tissue of those groups significantly increased (P＜0.05),the levels of MDA (7.26 ±0.72 nmol/mg,8.58 ± 0.93 nmol/mg,10.62 ± 0.59 nmol/mg vs.14.80 ± 0.71 nmol/mg) in myocardial tissue of those groups significantly decreased (P＜0.05),the E/A value (1.25 ± 0.18,1.09 ± 0.14,0.97 ± 0.11 vs.0.51 ±0.11) in those groups significantly increased (P＜0.05),the E/E'values (12.33 ± 0.73,13.26 ± 1.07,14.73 ± 1.23 vs.20.54 ± 1.64) and the IVRT (21.90 ± 2.60 ms,22.05 ± 2.84 ms,24.42 ± 2.22 ms vs.27.40 ± 2.81 ms) in those groups significantly decreased (P＜0.05).Conclusions The catalpol can reduce oxidative stress,improve cardiac function and protect cardiomyocytes.

Objective To investigate the pregnancy outcomes of non-immune hydrops fetalis (NIHF) in the era of intrauterine intervention. Methods We reviewed the medical records of 149 patients who were referred for NIHF and delivered at Fetal Medicine Unit, Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital between March 2012 and March 2017. After systematic evaluation and consultation, 102 cases chose to terminate their pregnancies, 47 cases (31.5％) chose to continue their pregnancies, among which two cases were lost to follow-up. The rest 45 cases were divided into two groups according to whether they received intrauterine interventions or not, the intrauterine intervention group (n=18) and the control group (n=27), and the clinical characteristics and pregnancy outcomes were compared. Independent samples t-test or Kruskal-Wallis test, Chi-square test or Fisher exact test were applied for statistical analysis. Results The mean gestational age of the intervention group at diagnosis of NIHF was lower than that of the control group [26.5(23.4-30.0) weeks vs 30.3(29.0-32.0) weeks, χ2=7.427, P=0.006]. Compared with the control group, the intrauterine fetal death rate was slightly lower [25.9％(7/27) vs 1/18], the neonatal survival rate was slightly higher [37.0％(10/27) vs 11/18] in the intrauterine intervention group, although no statistically significance was observed (Fisher exact, P>0.05). In the intrauterine intervention group, the incidence of low Apgar score (<4) at both 1 and 5 min was 1/17 and 0/17, respectively, which was much lower than those of the control group [45％(9/20) and 35％(7/20), Fisher exact, both P<0.05]. Conclusions After overall prenatal evaluation, appropriate intrauterine interventions may improve the pregnancy outcomes in NIHF.
