OBJECTIVE: To establish a new emergency dynamic score (EDS) method based on modified early warning score (MEWS) combined with clinical symptoms, rapidly available examination results and bedside examination data in the emergency department, and to observe its applicability and feasibility in the clinical application of emergency department. METHODS: A total of 500 patients admitted to the department of emergency of Xing'an County People's Hospital from July 2021 to April 2022 were selected as research objects. After admission, EDS and MEWS scores were performed first, and then acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) was performed retrospectively, and the prognosis of patients was followed up. The difference of short-term mortality in patients with different score segments of EDS, MEWS and APACHE II were compared. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to evaluate the prognostic value of various scoring methods in critically ill patients. RESULTS: The mortality of patients in different score groups of each scoring method increased with the increase of the score value [The mortality of 0-1, 2-3, 4-5, 6-7 and ≥ 8 of MEWS were 1.9% (3/159), 2.9% (6/208), 12.4% (11/89), 29.0% (9/31) and 61.5% (8/13), respectively. The mortality of EDS stage 1 weighted MEWS score 0-3, 4-6, 7-9, 10-12 and ≥ 13 were 0 (0/49), 3.2% (8/247), 6.6% (10/152), 31.9% (15/47) and 80.0% (4/5), respectively. The mortality of EDS stage 2 clinical symptom score 0-4, 5-9, 10-14, 15-19, ≥ 20 were 0 (0/13), 0.4% (1/235), 3.6% (6/165), 26.2% (17/65), 59.1% (13/22), respectively. The mortality of EDS stage 3 rapid test data score 0-6, 7-12, 13-18, 19-24 and ≥ 25 were 0 (0/16), 0.6% (1/159), 4.6% (6/131), 13.7% (7/51) and 65.0% (13/20), respectively. The mortality of patients with APACHE II score 0-6, 7-12, 13-18, 19-24 and ≥ 25 were 1.9% (1/53), 0.4% (1/277), 4.6% (5/108), 34.2% (13/38) and 70.8% (17/24), respectively, all P < 0.01]. When the MEWS score was more than 4, the specificity was 87.0%, the sensitivity was 67.6%, and the maximum Youden index was 0.546, which was the best cut-off point. When the weighted MEWS score of EDS in the first stage was greater than 7, the specificity of predicting the prognosis of patients was 76.2%, the sensitivity was 70.3%, and the maximum Youden index was 0.465, which was the best cut-off point. When clinical symptom score of EDS in the second stage was more than 14, the specificity and sensitivity of predicting the prognosis of patients were 87.7% and 81.1%, respectively, and the maximum Youden index was 0.688, which was the best cut-off point. When the third stage rapid test of EDS reached 15 points, the specificity of predicting the prognosis of patients was 70.9%, and the sensitivity was 96.3%, and the maximum Youden index was 0.672, which was the best cut-off point. When APACHE II score was higher than 16, the specificity was 87.9%, the sensitivity was 86.5%, and the maximum Youden index was 0.743, which was the best cut-off point. ROC curve analysis showed that: EDS score in the stage 1, 2 and 3, MEWS score and APACHE II score can predict the short-term mortality risk of critically ill patients. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were 0.815 (0.726-0.905), 0.913 (0.867-0.959), 0.911 (0.860-0.962), 0.844 (0.755-0.933) and 0.910 (0.833-0.987), all P < 0.01. In terms of the differential ability to predict the risk of death in the short-term, the AUC in the second and third stages of EDS were highly close to APACHE II score (0.913, 0.911 vs. 0.910), and significantly higher than MEWS score (0.913, 0.911 vs. 0.844, both P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS EDS method can dynamically evaluate emergency patients in stages, and has the characteristics of fast, simple, easy to obtain test and inspection data, which can facilitate emergency doctors to evaluate emergency patients objectively and quickly. It has strong ability to predict the prognosis of emergency patients, and is worth popularizing in emergency departments of primary hospitals.

OBJECTIVE To study the improvement effects and mechanism of rhein on immunoglobulin A nephropathy （IgAN） model rat based on signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3） signaling pathway. METHODS Rats were randomly divided into normal control group， IgAN model group and rhein treatment group， with 10 rats in each group. IgAN model group and rhein treatment group were given combination of bovine serum albumin+lipopolysaccharide+carbon tetrachloride to induce IgAN model. Since the 7th week， rhein treatment group rats were intragastrically given relevant medicine， and normal control group and model group rats were given equal amount of normal saline intragastrically， for consecutive 4 weeks. After the last administration， the count of urine sediment erythrocyte， 24 h-urine total protein （UTP）， the levels of immunoglobulin A （IgA） in serum and secretory immunoglobulin A （sIgA） in intestinal mucosa were detected. The pathological changes of Peyer’s patch in renal cortex and intestinal mucosa and IgA deposition in renal cortex were observed. The expressions of interleukin-17 （IL-17）， IL- 6 and transforming growth factor β （TGF-β） in Peyer’s patch of intestinal mucosa in rats were detected. The expressions of STAT3 and related orphan receptor γt （RORγt） mRNA in Peyer’s patch were detected. The expressions of p-STAT3 and RORγt proteins in Peyer’s patch were detected. RESULTS Compared with normal control group， the count of urine sediment erythrocyte， 24 h-UTP， the levels of IgA in serum and sIgA in intestinal mucosa were increased significantly in IgAN model group （P＜0.01）； enlarged renal corpuscles， dilated renal sacs， obvious intratubular mesangial hyperplasia and fibrosis were observed in renal cortex； the volume and germinal center of Peyer’s patch in intestinal mucosa increased； IgA deposition of renal cortex zxyylxk20220103） was obvious； the expressions of IL-17， IL-6 and TGF-β in Peyer’s patch， mRNA expressions of STAT3 and RORγt， protein expressions of p-STAT3 and RORγt were increased significantly （P＜0.01）. Compared with IgAN model group，above indexes were decreased significantly in rhein treatment group （P＜0.01）， pathological damage of renal cortex was improved， the volume of Peyer’s patch and germinal center of intestinal mucosa were reduced， and IgA deposition in renal cortex was weakened. CONCLUSIONS Rhein can improve IgAN model rats， the mechanism of which may be associated with inhibiting STAT3 signaling pathway and regulating immune function of Peyer’s patch in intestinal mucosa.

ObjectiveTo investigate the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress genes in the prognosis of pancreatic cancer， and to establish a prognostic prediction model based on the prognostic markers for pancreatic cancer. MethodsTranscriptome sequencing data were downloaded from TCGA and GTEx databases， and MsigDB website was used to obtain endoplasmic reticulum stress genes. A univariate Cox regression analysis was performed to obtain the genes associated with the prognosis of pancreatic cancer， and a consensus clustering analysis was used to construct the molecular typing of pancreatic cancer， while the differentially expressed genes between the two subgroups were obtained. A Lasso regression analysis was used to obtain the core genes associated with the prognosis of pancreatic cancer， which were used to construct a prognostic prediction model for pancreatic cancer. Related datasets were obtained from the GEO database to validate the predictive performance of the model. The CIBERSORT analysis was used to investigate the correlation between risk score and immune infiltration. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to measure the expression of genes in pancreatic cancer tissue and cell lines. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups， and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. Survival was compared using Log-rank test. The predictive value of the model was evaluated by evaluating the area under the ROC curve. ResultsThe endoplasmic reticulum stress genes CEBPB， MARCKS， PMAIP1， and UBXN10 were independent risk factors for the prognosis of pancreatic cancer， and based on the expression characteristics of these genes， the TCGA pancreatic cancer cohort was divided into two subgroups， i.e.， cluster A and cluster B， while the cluster A patients had a significantly shorter overall survival time than the cluster B patients （P<0.01）. The Lasso regression analysis obtained 5 core genes from the differentially expressed genes affecting the prognosis of pancreatic cancer， and the risk scoring system was established as risk score=0.156×CDA+0.135×AHNAK2+0.020×RHOV+0.095×LY6D+0.054×SPRR1B. The ROC curve analysis showed that this model had good overall predictive performance， with the area under the ROC curve of 0.731 at 1 year， 0.712 at 3 years， and 0.686 at 5 years， and the low-risk group based on this model had a significantly longer overall survival time than the high-risk group （χ²=11.733， P=0.001）. The model showed good predictive performance in the external dataset GSE57495. Quantitative real-time PCR results showed that the expression levels of CDA， AHNAK2， RHOV， LY6D， and SPRR1B in 40 pancreatic cancer tissue samples were significantly upregulated compared with those in normal adjacent tissue samples （t=2.529， 2.458， 3.314， 3.583， and 5.082， all P<0.05）. ConclusionThe expression characteristics of CDA， AHNAK2， RHOV， LY6D， and SPRR1B can be used to predict the prognosis of pancreatic cancer， and the high expression levels of these genes are associated with the poor prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients.

Anti-seizure medications (ASMs) are the main therapy for epilepsy.There are many kinds of ASMs with complex mechanism of action, so it is difficult for pharmacists to examine prescriptions.This paper put forward some suggestions on the indications, dosage forms/routes of administration, appropriateness of usage and dosage, combined medication and drug interaction, long-term prescription review, individual differences in pathophysiology of children, and drug selection when complicated with common epilepsy, for the reference of doctors and pharmacists.

The nucleocapsid (N) protein of SARS-CoV-2 has been reported to have a high ability of liquid-liquid phase separation, which enables its incorporation into stress granules (SGs) of host cells. However, whether SG invasion by N protein occurs in the scenario of SARS-CoV-2 infection is unknow, neither do we know its consequence. Here, we used SARS-CoV-2 to infect mammalian cells and observed the incorporation of N protein into SGs, which resulted in markedly impaired self-disassembly but stimulated cell cellular clearance of SGs. NMR experiments further showed that N protein binds to the SG-related amyloid proteins via non-specific transient interactions, which not only expedites the phase transition of these proteins to aberrant amyloid aggregation in vitro, but also promotes the aggregation of FUS with ALS-associated P525L mutation in cells. In addition, we found that ACE2 is not necessary for the infection of SARS-CoV-2 to mammalian cells. Our work indicates that SARS-CoV-2 infection can impair the disassembly of host SGs and promote the aggregation of SG-related amyloid proteins, which may lead to an increased risk of neurodegeneration.

The transcription factor nuclear factor of kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) is expressed in brown adipocytes, but its role remains largely unknown in the cells. This issue was addressed in current study by examining NF-κB in brown adipocytes in vitro and in vivo. NF-κB activity was increased by differentiation of brown adipocytes through elevation of p65 (RelA) expression. The transcriptional activity of NF-κB was induced by the cold stimulation with an elevation in S276 phosphorylation of p65 protein. Inactivation of NF-κB in brown adipocytes made the knockout mice [uncoupling protein 1 (Ucp1)-CreER-p65^f/f, U-p65-KO] intolerant to the cold environment. The brown adipocytes exhibited an increase in apoptosis, a decrease in cristae density and uncoupling activity in the interscapular brown adipose tissue (iBAT) of p65-KO mice. The alterations became severer after cold exposure of the KO mice. The brown adipocytes of mice with NF-κB activation (p65 overexpression, p65-OE) exhibited a set of opposite alterations with a reduction in apoptosis, an increase in cristae density and uncoupling activity. In mechanism, NF-κB inhibited expression of the adenine nucleotide translocase 2 (ANT2) in the control of apoptosis. Data suggest that NF-κB activity is increased in brown adipocytes by differentiation and cold stimulation to protect the cells from apoptosis through down-regulation of ANT2 expression.

【Objective】 To investigate the related viral markers of HBV DNA reactive samples among voluntary blood donors in Shiyan area, so as to provide some reference for donor re-entry. 【Methods】 From August 2019 to June 2021, 78 samples with HBV DNA reactivity from voluntary blood donors in our blood station were collected, and they were further detected for HBV viral markers(using chemiluminescence assays), nucleic acid testing(NAT) of virus quantification and sequencing analysis. 【Results】 Forty-seven (60.3%)out of 78 HBV DNA reactive samples were from repeated blood donors, and 56.4%(44/78)of them were over 45 years old. Among the five viral markers of hepatitis B, 37.2%(29/78) were positive for anti-HBs alone, 19.2%(15/78) were positive for anti-HBe+ anti-HBc and anti-HBs+ anti-HBe+ anti-HBc, and 11.5% (9/78) were all items negative.A total of 62.8%(49/78) of samples were detected by NAT quantification and seven samples had been successfully sequenced for HBV. 【Conclusion】 NAT can effectively minimize the missed detection of HBsAg methodology and reduce the risk of HBV transmission through blood. The re-entry of HBV DNA reactive blood donors should be treated with care.

The fcl gene encodes GDP-fucose synthase, which catalyzes two-step differential isomerase and reductase reactions in the synthesis of GDP-L-fucose from GDP-D-mannose. It also participates in the biosynthesis of amino sugar and ribose sugar, and is one of the key enzymes to regulate the metabolism of sugar and nucleotides in organisms. The presence of fcl gene in Saccharopolyspora pogona was found through sequencing result of genome. The mutant S. pogona-fcl and S. pogona-Δfcl were constructed by gene engineering technology. The results showed that the gene had an effects on growth and development, protein expression and transcriptional level, insecticidal activity, and biosynthesis of butenyl-spinosyn of Saccharopolyspora pogona. The results of HPLC analysis showed that the yield of butenyl-spinosyn in S. pogona-Δfcl was 130% compared with that in S. pogona, which reduced by 25% in S. pogona-fcl. The results of determination of insecticidal activity showed that S. pogona-Δfcl had a stronger insecticidal activity against Helicoverpa armigera than that of S. pogona, while the S. pogona-fcl had a lower insecticidal activity against Helicoverpa armigera compared with S. pogona. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe the morphology of the mycelia. It was found that the surface of the S. pogona-Δfcl was wrinkled, and the mycelium showed a short rod shape. There was no significant difference in mycelial morphology between S. pogona-fcl and S. pogona. Aboved all showed that deletion of fcl gene in S. pogona hindered the growth and development of mycelia, but was beneficial to increase the biosynthesis of butenyl-spinosyn and improve insecticidal activity. Whereas the fcl gene over-expression was not conducive to the biosynthesis of butenyl-spinosyn and reduced their insecticidal activity. SDS-PAGE results showed that the difference of protein expression among the three strains was most obvious at 96 hours, which was identified by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction, the results showed that there were significant differences of related genes in transcriptional levels among the three strains. Based on the results of the study, a network metabolic control map was constructed to analyze the effect of fcl gene on growth and the regulation pathway of butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis, which provided an experimental basis for revealing the regulation mechanism of butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis and related follow-up studies.
