Objective:To investigate the value and clinical significance of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) in early pregnancy (8-12 gestational weeks) as a predictor of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) among women with different pre-pregnancy body mass index (pre-BMI) categories.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted including 9 710 singleton pregnant women (FPG levels in early pregnancy ≤5.6 mmol/L) who underwent prenatal screening and delivery in Yuyao People's Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022. Participants were stratified based on their pre-BMI as follows: <18.5 ( n=1 406), ≥18.5 to <25.0 ( n=7 162), ≥25.0 to <30.0 ( n=978), and ≥30.0 kg/m 2 ( n=164). Within each pre-BMI category, women were further divided into four groups based on FPG levels in early pregnancy (<4.5, ≥4.5 to <4.8, ≥4.8 to <5.1, and ≥5.1 mmol/L). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to identify risk factors for GDM, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was applied to evaluate the efficacy of FPG in early pregnancy based on different pre-BMI in predicting GDM. Results:The overall incidence of GDM in the singleton pregnancy women with FPG levels in early pregnancy ≤5.6 mmol/L was 12.3% (1 197/9 710). For a pre-BMI of <18.5 kg/m 2, the ORs with 95% CIs for GDM within the different FPG categories (<4.5, ≥4.5 to <4.8, ≥4.8 to <5.1, and ≥5.1 mmol/L) were 0.041 (95% CI: 0.015-0.409), 1.834 (95% CI: 1.089-3.088), 6.779 (95% CI: 4.041-11.371), and 13.723 (95% CI: 5.560-33.871), respectively. For pre-BMI of ≥18.5 to <25.0 kg/m 2, the respective the ORs with 95% CIs were 0.048 (95% CI: 0.012-0.203), 2.573 (95% CI: 2.091-3.168), 9.023 (95% CI: 7.240-11.245), and 9.158 (95% CI: 6.484-12.937). For pre-BMI of ≥25.0 to <30.0 kg/m 2, the ORs with 95% CIs were 0.108 (95% CI: 0.053-0.446), 1.698 (95% CI: 1.064-2.654), 7.537 (95% CI: 5.285-13.080), and 9.994 (95% CI: 5.613-18.218). For pre-BMI of ≥30.0 kg/m 2, the ORs with 95% CIs were 0.098 (95% CI: 0.072-1.015), 2.888 (95% CI: 0.911-9.157), 13.674 (95% CI: 3.480-53.736), and 20.509 (95% CI: 6.674-63.019). The optimal cutoff value of FPG in early pregnancy for GDM prediction was 4.7 mmol/L with an area under the curve of 0.752, the risk of GDM significantly increased with FPG levels ≥4.7 mmol/L in early pregnancy across all pregnant women ( OR=17.356, 95% CI: 13.757-21.896, P<0.001). Conclusions:In the singleton pregnancy women with FPG levels in early pregnancy ≤5.6 mmol/L, FPG in early pregnancy is an independent risk factor for the occurrence of GDM; for pregnant women stratified by the same pre-BMI, the risk of developing GDM increases progressively with the rise of FPG in early pregnancy. FPG in early pregnancy has a certain value in predicting the occurrence of GDM.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect and mechanism of Euphorbia helioscopia aqueous extract （EHE） on mice with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） and its influence on precancerous lesion-associated proteins in lung tissues induced by cigarette smoke （CS）. MethodThe COPD model was induced by CS in 60 mice and the model mice were randomly divided into control group， model group， positive drug group （dexamethasone， 2 mg·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose EHE groups （1.875， 3.75， 7.5 g·kg^-1）. The high-performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） method was used to determine the related components in EHE. The changes in end-expiratory pause （EEP）， airway resistance （Penh）， expiratory flow at 50% vital capacity （EF50）， and other pulmonary function indexes were detected by the spirometer. The levels of inflammatory factors， such as interleukin （IL）-2， IL-5， IL-18， IL-17A， and IL-27 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid （BALF） of mice were detected by high-throughput liquid protein chip technology. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to detect the pathological changes in lung tissues in mice. The content of malondialdehyde （MDA）， myeloperoxidase （MPO）， and glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px） in lung tissues was determined by the colorimetric method. The mRNA relative expression of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β）， matrix metalloproteinase-2 （MMP-2）， matrix metalloproteinase-9 （MMP-9）， and matrix metalloproteinase-12 （MMP-12） was detected by Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was used to detect the expression of tumor protein （P53） and cell proliferation-associated antigen （Ki67） in lung tissues， and Western blot was used to detect the relative expression of tumor suppressor protein （P16）， DNA （cytosine-5）-methyltransferase 1 （DNMT1）， and fragile histidine triad （FHIT） in lung tissues. ResultThe results showed that the main compounds in EHE included phenols （gallic acid and protocatechuic acid） and flavonoids （such as hyperoside， rutin， myricetin， naringenin， quercetin， luteolin， kaempferol， and licorice chalcone A）， among which gallic acid and rutin were the highest in content. Compared with normal group， model group showed increased levels of EEP， EF50， and Penh （P<0.05）， and showed increased MDA and MPO levels （P<0.01） and decreased GSH-Px （P<0.01）， and the model group displayed increased levels of IL-2， IL-5， IL-18， IL-17A， IL-27， TNF-α， TGF-β， MMP-2， MMP-9， and MMP-12 （P<0.05）. And the model group exhibited up-regulated expression of P53， Ki67， and FHIT in lung tissues （P<0.01） and down-regulated expression of DNMT1 and P16 （P<0.01）. Compared with model group， the EHE groups showed decreased EEP and EF50 levels （P<0.05）. The pathological injury of lung tissues in mice of the model group was observed under HE staining， and the pathological injury of basal cell hyperplasia of lung tissues was gradually improved after treatment with EHE. The EHE groups showed reduced levels of MDA and MPO （P<0.01） and increased GSH-Px （P<0.01）. The EHE groups displayed decreased levels of IL-2， IL-5， IL-18， IL-17A， IL-27， TNF-α， TGF-β， MMP-2， MMP-9， and MMP-12 （P<0.05）. And the EHE groups showed down-regulated Ki67 and FHIT in lung tissues （P<0.05） and up-regulated expression of P53 and DNMT1 （P<0.05）. ConclusionEHE can protect mice from COPD and inhibit precancerous lesions， and the mechanism may be related to the inhibition of inflammation and oxidative stress response， regulation of protease and antiprotease imbalance， and regulation of epithelial cell growth.

Objective: To analysis gender disparities in epidemiological trend of HIV/AIDS disease burden among Chinese population aged 10-24 years from 1990 to 2019. Methods: The Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD 2019) results tool was used to extract the number of deaths, mortality rate, disability adjusted life years (DALY), DALY rate, years of life lost (YLL), YLL rate, years lived with disability (YLD) and YLD rate to comprehensively analyze the change range of HIV/AIDS disease burden in the Chinese population aged 10-24 years from 1990 to 2019. Results: In 2019, the number of deaths, mortality rate, DALY, DALY rate, YLL, YLL rate, YLD and YLD rate of Chinese population aged 10-24 years due to HIV/AIDS were 847, 0.37 per 100 000 , 62 621 person years, 27.51 per 100 000, 58 036 person years, 25.49 per 100 000, 4 584 person years, 2.01 per 100 000 respectively, with the increase of 401.18%, 691.49%, 370.48%, 648.26%, 409.53%, 710.33%, 138.87% and 279.25% , compared with the data in 1990. In term of gender, the number of deaths, mortality rate, DALY, and DALY rate of Chinese male population aged 10-14, 15-19 and 20-24 years due to HIV/AIDS in 2019 were higher than those of female, and the growth rate (compared with 1990) was also higher than that of female. In term of the age group, the increase in people aged 10-14 years was higher than that of people aged 20-24 years. From 1990 to 2019, with the increase of year and age, gender disparity between mortality and DALY rate widened. Conclusion Compared with data in 1990, the risk of HIV/AIDS infection in 2019 among Chinese population aged 10-24 years continued to increase, especially among young people of 10-14 years. Gender disparity is exacerbating.

OBJECTIVE：To investiga te the effects of MEK/ERK pathway specific inhibitor PD 98059 combined with paclitaxel on the proliferation and apoptosis of human gastric signet ring cell carcinoma （SRCC）cells. METHODS ：Using human SRCC KATO Ⅲ cells as object ，CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell proliferation after treated with paclitaxel ，PD98059 and two drug combination for 48 h，and the proliferation rate was calculated. Flow cytometry ，Western blotting and Transwell assay were used to detect the cell proliferation ，the expression of apoptosis related protein （Cleaved-caspase-3）and cell migration after treated with paclitaxel，PD98059 and two drug combination for 48 or 24 h. RESULTS ：After treated with paclitaxel （1 μg/mL），PD98059（5， 20，40 μmol/L）and two drug combination （1 μg/mL+5，20，40 μmol/L），the proliferation rate of cells was increased significantly in administration groups ，and the combination groups were significantly higher than paclitaxel and PD 98059 alone groups （P＜ 0.05）. After treated with paclitaxel （1 μg/mL），PD98059（5，20，40 μmol/L）and two drug combination （1 μg/mL+40 μmol/L）， early and late apoptosis rate ，the protein expression of Cleaved-caspase- 3 were significantly increased in paclitaxel group and combination group ；combination group was significantly higher than paclitaxel and PD 98059 alone group （P＜0.05）. The number of migrated cells in administration groups were reduced significantly ，and the combination group was significantly lower than paclitaxel and PD 98059 alone group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：Paclitaxel and PD 98059 can inhibit the proliferation and migration of human SRCC KATO Ⅲ cells，paclitaxel can also promote the apoptosis and the expression of apoptosis related protein，which may be related to the inhibition of MEK/ERK pathway. The effect of the combination of the two drugs is better than paclitaxel or PD 98059 alone.

OBJECTIVEThe genetic diversity and genetic relationship of Jatropha curcas resources in Sichuan and Yunnan were studied in order to provide a theoretical basis for breeding fine varieties and protecting germplasm resources.

METHODTen J. curcas populations were studied by 12 cpSSR primers in this paper. On the base of amplified bands, genetic diversity parameters were analyzed by POPGENE version 1.32. Furthermore, UPGMA tree of 10 J. curcas populations established from pairwise population distance by NTSYSpc version 2.10.

RESULTTwenty-two polymorphic bands were detected, and the percentage of polymorphic loci (P) was 76.28%. Among of the 10 J. curcas populations, the average percentage of polymorphic loci of YNSB was higher than that of the other populations, and it reached 95.45%; On the other hand, that of YNLS was the lowest in all populations, and it was 45.45%. Nei's gene diversity index(H(e)), Shannon information index(I), Effective Num of alleles(A(e)) were respectively 0.4020, 0.576 7, 1.713 6. The total gene diversity (H(T)), the gene differentiation coefficient (G(st)), the gene flow (N(m)) and the gene diversity within populations (H(s)) were 0.443 3, 0.080 2, 3.058 5, 0.405 1, 0.035 7, respectively. The highest gene diversity ratio was showed within populations and the lowest among populations. The results by AMOVA analysis showed that 91.02% of genetic variation existed within populations while 8.98% of genetic variation existed among populations. On the base of the results, the conclusion was extracted that variation existed mainly within populations, and the variation within populations was bigger than that among populations. The result was consistent with that of the gene differentiation coefficient. The order of the genetic diversity was YNLS population < XSBN population < SCHPZ population < SCHD population < SCJH population < YNPR population < SCLB population < YNSB population < YNFY population < SCHL population. The range of Nei's genetic identity and genetic distance of 10 respectively populations were respectively 0.812 7-0.979 8, 0.020 4-0.207 3. All these showed the similarity was higher and there was a close relationship among the 10 respectively populations; Results based on the cluster analysis showed that 10 respectively populations were divided into 2 groups: one was SCJH population and CHPZ population, the other was SCHL population, SCHD population, SCLB population, YNSB population, YNFY population, YNPR population, XSBN population and YNLS population.

CONCLUSIONSignificant genetic diversity was observed among respectively resources in Sichuan and Yunnan. On the other hand, genetic relationship was close between populations.
