Objective:We aimed to analyse the trend of incidence and mortality of stomach cancer in Shandong province from 2012 to 2022 and predict the development trend from 2023 to 2030.Methods:Data on incidence and mortality of stomach cancer in Shandong province from 2012 to 2022 were obtained from Shandong Cancer Registry. The incidence, age-specific incidence, mortality and age-specific mortality in different years, sexes and urban and rural areas were calculated, the rates were standardized based on the age composition of the Chinese standard population in 2000. The average annual percent change (AAPC) of incidence and mortality was calculated using Joinpoint software. The Bayesian age-period-cohort model was used to predict the trend of stomach cancer incidence and mortality from 2023 to 2030.Results:From 2012 to 2022, the stomach cancer age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) showed a decreasing trend. The ASIR decreased from 27.47/100 000 in 2012 to 16.06/100 000 in 2022 (AAPC=-5.10%, P＜0.001), and the ASMR decreased from 17.69/100 000 to 11.09/100 000 (AAPC=-5.52%, P＜0.001). The ASIR and ASMR of male, female, urban and rural population also showed downward trends. The incidence and mortality rates of men were always higher than those of women, and the difference between urban and rural areas is gradually narrowing. In 2022, the ASIR (16.09/100 000 in urban and 16.03/100 000 in rural) and the ASMR (11.10/100 000 in urban and 11.08/100 000 in rural) of stomach cancer between urban and rural areas were nearly identical. The Bayesian age-period-cohort model predicted that the ASIR of stomach cancer in Shandong would further decrease from 2023 to 2030 (AAPC=-0.51%, P=0.001), but the change tended to be smooth. The incidences in male (AAPC=-1.46%, P=0.010) and rural areas (AAPC=-1.21%, P＜0.001) were still expected to have a little room for decline. The trend of incidences in female and urban areas were not statistically significant. The trend of mortality was consistent with the incidence. Conclusions:The stomach cancer incidence and mortality in Shandong shows a decreasing trend and it is expected to decrease further by 2030. However, the trend tends to be smooth, and the disease burden should be reduced as early as possible for high-risk population and high-risk factors of stomach cancer.

Objective:To analyze the trend of incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer and estimate its age-period-cohort effect in Shandong Province from 2012 to 2022.Methods:The Joinpoint regression was used to analyze the trend of incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer and calculate the average annual percentage change (AAPC) based on the data on thyroid cancer from 2012 to 2022. The age-period-cohort model was used to analyze the age-effect, time-effect and cohort-effect of thyroid cancer risk in the population aged over 20 years.Results:From 2012 to 2022, the incidence of thyroid cancer in Shandong province showed a significant upward trend, with an AAPC of 21.68% (95% CI: 19.14%-24.27%, P<0.001). The incidence of females was higher than that of males, and the incidence of urban areas was higher than that of rural areas. The trend of thyroid cancer mortality was relatively stable with an AAPC of -3.04% (95% CI:-8.81%-3.09%, P=0.323). The age effect of incidence increased with age before 60 years old and decreased with age after 60 years old. The incidence peaked in the age group of 55-59. The period effect increased with time. The cohort effect showed that the cohort born before 1957 had a downward trend over time, while the cohort born after 1957 had an upward trend. Conclusion:The incidence of thyroid cancer in Shandong shows a rising trend from 2012 to 2022. Age is an important factor affecting the risk of thyroid cancer. The mortality of thyroid cancer remains stable.

Seed quality plays an important role in the agricultural and animal husbandry production, the effective utilization of genetic resources, the conservation of biodiversity and the restoration and reconstruction of plant communities. Seed aging is a common physiological phenomenon during storage. It is a natural irreversible process that occurs and develops along with the extension of seed storage time. It is not only related to the growth, yield and quality of seed and seedling establishment, but also has an important effect on the conservation, utilization and development of plant germplasm resources. The physiological mechanisms of seed aging are complex and diverse. Most studies focus on conventional physiological characterization, while systematic and comprehensive in-depth studies are lacking. Here we review the recent advances in understanding the physiology of seed aging process, including the methods of seed aging, the effect of aging on seed germination, and the physiological and molecular mechanisms of seed aging. The change of multiple physiological parameters, including seed vigor, electrical conductivity, malondialdehyde content and storage material in the seed, antioxidant enzyme activity and mitochondrial structure, were summarized. Moreover, insights into the mechanism of seed aging from the aspects of transcriptome, proteome and aging related gene function were summarized. This study may facilitate the research of seed biology and the conservation and utilization of germplasm resources.

ObjectiveTo investigate the late detection of HIV/AIDS cases in the elderly in Jilin Province and analyze its influencing factors， to provide theoretical basis for improving their life quality. MethodsThe first CD4 values of HIV/AIDS patients aged 50 years and above living in Jilin Province were used to estimate late detection， and the influencing factors of late detection in elderly cases were analyzed. ResultsThe average CD4 cell count of newly reported HIV/AIDS cases aged 50 and above in Jilin Province from 1996 to 2021 was （230.55±191.97）， the low value group accounted for the largest proportion （50.8%）， and the late detection rate was 59.3% （1397/2325）. The late detection cases were mainly from sexual transmission （46.8% for same-sex and 48.2% for heterosexual contact）. From the perspective of sample sources， most of the late detection patients were diagnosed while testing for other illnesses， followed by testing and consulting. In terms of contact history， the late detection of cases of men who have sex with men was higher. The binary logistic regression analysis showed that gender， marriage， sample source and report year were the factors affecting the late detection of AIDS. The late detection rate of males was higher， and cases of married couples were more likely to be late detection. With the increase of report year， the late detection rate decreased， and testing and counseling could effectively reduce the late detection rate of AIDS. ConclusionThe CD4 cell count in the first detection of HIV/AIDS in the elderly in Jilin Province is low， and the late detection rate of male cases is high. In recent years， the expansion of voluntary counseling and testing in Jilin Province has effectively reduced the late detection rate of HIV/AIDS. At the same time， sex education should be strengthened for the elderly， healthy marital relationships should be advocated and more attention should be paid to the mental health of the elderly.

Objective:To study the use of the Glissonean pedicle approach based on the triangular area among the right anterior pedicle, the right posterior pedicle and the right hepatic vein ( "APR triangle" ), followed by indocyanine green fluorescence negative staining in laparoscopic anatomical resection of right hepatic segments.Methods:The clinical data of 34 patients with liver tumors who underwent laparoscopic anatomical right hepatic segmentectomy at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from September 2020 to September 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Of the 34 patients, there were 24 males and 10 females, aged (58.3±10.3) years old. Data on completion of operation, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative blood transfusion, postoperative complications and postoperative hospital stay were collected.Results:All the 34 patients had malignant liver tumors, and they were successfully operated using total laparoscopic surgery. There was no conversion to open surgery. Three patients underwent segment V resection, 3 patients segment VI resection, 5 patients segment VII resection, 2 patients segment V + segment VI resection, 9 patients segment VI + segment VII resection, 3 patients segment V + segment VII resection, 5 patients segment V dorsal segment + segment VI + segment VII resection, 3 patients right posterior section resection + anterior dorsal segment resection and 1 patient anterior dorsal section resection. The operation time was (275.58±82.28) min, the amount of intraoperative blood loss was 100(100, 300) ml, and there were no patients requiring blood transfusion during the operation. Liquid food was started on the first day after operation, and out-of bed activities were carried out on the second to third days after operation. The Clavien Dindo classification of postoperative complications was grade I in 32 patients and grade III in 2 patients. The postoperative hospital stay was (7.23±3.10) d. All tumor margins were negative for malignancy. All the 34 patients were followed-up for (8.94±2.94) months. By the end of follow-up, 34 patients had survived without tumor recurrence.Conclusion:The right Glisson pedicle approach based on the "APR triangle" and the anatomical resection of right hepatic segments with fluorescence negative staining were safe and feasible.

Lipids are important components of living organisms that participate in and regulate a variety of life activities. Lipids in plants also play important physiological functions in response to a variety of abiotic stresses (e.g. salt stress, drought stress, temperature stress). However, most research on lipids focused on animal cells and medical fields, while the functions of lipids in plants were overlooked. With the rapid development of "omics" technologies and biotechnology, the lipidomics has received much attention in recent years because it can reveal the composition and function of lipids in a deep and comprehensive way. This review summarizes the recent advances in the functions and classification of lipids, the development of lipidomics technology, and the responses of plant lipids against drought stress, salt stress and temperature stress. In addition, challenges and prospects were proposed for future lipidomics research and further exploration of the physiological functions of lipids in plant stress resistance.

Objective To explore the effect of Notch1 signal pathway on the osteogenic differentiation in human periodontal ligament stem cells(PDLSCs) under dynamic strain.Methods PDLSCs were separated from freshly extracted teeth then identified and prolifed.Notch1 signal pathway was regulated by chemicals.Dynamic strains were applied to PDLSCs with the tension plus system.Then Notch1 signal pathway key factor Notch intracellular domain(NICD),osteoblastic related indexes alkaline phosphatase(ALP) and bone morphogenetic proteins 2 (BMP2) were detected by western blot expression.The deformation rate of stress parameters was 0 to 12%,and the frequency was 0.1 Hz.The loading time was 0 h,6 h,12 h and 24 h.Results As Notch1 signal pathway was activated,the expression of osteogenic markers ALP and BMP2 both reduced (P<0.05).On the contrary, the expression of osteogenic markers ALP and BMP2 both increased obviously (P<0.05) as Notch1 signal pathway was inhibited.Conclusion The activated Notch1 signal pathway will inhibit osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs under dynamic tensile.

Objective To investigate the effect of β-catenin on the osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) under mechanical tension.Methods PDLSCs were seperately cultured in vitro from the periodontium attached at freshly extracted teeth.β-catenin-targeting agonist or inhibitor was applied to the PDLSCs to upregulate or downregulate the expression of activity of β-catenin protein.The expression of β-catenin protein and the osteogenetic related markers(ALP,BMP2,Runx 2) under the mechanical tension with different period(0,6,12,24 h) were assessed with Western blot in the PDLSCs irritated with agonist or inhibitor.Results Compared with the PDLSCs without mechanical tension,the expression of osteogenesis related marker proteins,ALP and Runx 2,in PDLSCs were enhanced under the circular mechanial tensile stress (P ＜ 0.05).In the PDLSCs irritated with WAY-262611,the β-catenin-targeting agonist,the expression of osteogenetic related markers ALP in the PDLSCs was improved during the first 12 h period of mechnical tensile load,which was significantly higher than that in the DMSO group.Conclusion Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway plays an important role in the early osteogenesis differentiation of PDLSCs under cyclic tension.The β-catenin promotes osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs under mechanical tension.

Objective To explore the HIV epidemic and related factors among MSM in Jilin province.Methods During the implementation of sentinel surveillance program from 2010 to 2015,continuous cross-sectional studies were conducted to monitor the awareness of AIDS,sexual behavior,HIV and syphilis positive rates,with the sample size no less than 400 in each surveillance site.Results From 2010 to 2015,a total of 7 823 MSM were involved in this study.The overall HIV prevalence among MSM was 5.4％ (42/7 823),with an increasing trend during 2010 and 2015 (Trend testx2=110.023,P＜0.001).The rates of awareness on AIDS were higher than 90.0％.The proportion of consistent condom use was 27.0％ (2 112/7 823) in the last 6 months,and significant differences were found in these years (x 2=234.038,P＜0.001).Results from multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the HIV infection related risk factors among MSM in Jilin province would include:residency from other provinces (aOR=1.797,95％ CI:1.185-2.726),recruitment through internet (aOR=1.717,95％CI:1.332-2.215),diagnosed of having sexually transmitted diseases in the previous year (aOR=1.893,95％CI:1.356-2.643) and positive testing on syphilis (aOR=4.309,95％CI:3.097-5.995).And consistent condom uses in the last 6 months (aOR=0.387,95％CI:0.143-0.557),tested HIV in the last year (aOR=0.632,95％CI:0.375-0.891) were preventive factors.Conclusions HIV prevalence was increasing among MSM in Jilin province,but both the proportion of consistent condom use and the former HIV testing rate were at a low level.Aggressive measurement including consistent condom use and periodical HIV testing among MSM was warranted.
