Objective To analyze the distribution characteristics of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) site rs76206423 in the promoter region of the interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) β gene among Han males in a high radiation background area (HBRA) in Yangjiang City. Methods A total of 48 male participants from Tangkou Town, Yangxi County, Yangjiang City (HBRA group), and 51 male participants from Hengpo Town, Enping City (control group) were selected as the research subjects using the random number table method. Peripheral venous blood samples of participants from both groups were collected, and genomic DNA was extracted. The genotyping and allele frequency distribution of the rs76206423 (A/G) site in the IL-2R β promoter region was detected among the participants in both groups using the SNP detection method. The difference of allele frequencies between population in HBRA group and five area of East Asia, South Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas published in the Human Genome Project database from National Center for Biotechnology Information were analyzed. Results The allele frequencies of rs76206423 of population in both groups conformed to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P>0.05). In the HBRA group, the AA genotype was predominant (64.6%), while the AG genotype was the most common in the control group (51.0%), with a significant difference (P<0.05). Population in both groups showed a predominance of the variant allele A (78.1% and 72.5%, respectively), with no significant difference (P>0.05). The frequency of the G allele of rs76206423 in the population in HBRA group was higher than those in South Asian, African, European, and American populations (all P<0.01), but showed no significant difference compared with East Asian populations (P>0.05). Conclusion In the Han male population from the HBRA in Yangjiang City, the rs76206423 site in the IL-2R β gene promoter region is predominantly composed of the wild-type A allele and AA genotype, indicating genetic stability and a relatively high degree of variation at this locus.

ObjectiveTo understand the visual environment sanitation in primary and secondary school classrooms in Minhang District, Shanghai, and to investigate the factors affecting the decline in students’ visual acuity. MethodsIn 2020, among all the primary and secondary schools in Minhang District, according to different types of classroom structures, levels, orientations, unilateral lighting, and bilateral lighting, a total of 20 231 students from 674 classrooms in primary and secondary schools were selected through stratified cluster sampling. Each monitored classroom was regarded as a research unit, and the naked eye vision of students was tested using a standard logarithmic vision chart during the 2020 and 2021 academic years. The change in average visual acuity between the two measurements was taken as the dependent variable, and the visual environment indices were considered as independent variables. The relationship between classroom visual environment indices and the decline in students’ naked eye vision was analyzed. ResultsThe qualification rates for per capita classroom area, window to floor area ratio, average illuminance of the blackboard, uniformity of blackboard illuminance, average illuminance of the desks, uniformity of desk illuminance, lighting coefficient of classroom, blackboard reflection ratio, back wall reflection ratio, and distance between lamps and desks were 79.53%, 88.58%, 46.74%, 70.33%,64.69%, 80.86%, 71.81%, 20.30%, 1.63%, and 97.53%, respectively. The average naked eye vision of primary and secondary school students in the 2020 academic year was 4.75±0.37 (right eye) and 4.76±0.37 (left eye), while in the 2021 academic year, it was 4.70±0.39 (right eye) and 4.71±0.38 (left eye). There was a significant decrease in the naked eye vision of primary and secondary school students in the 2021 academic year compared to that of 2020 (P<0.05). Univariate linear regression analysis showed a significant correlation between grade, average illuminance of the blackboard, average illuminance of the desks, uniformity of desk illuminance, lighting coefficient, and distance between lamps and desks, and the decline of students’ naked eye vision within one academic year (P<0.05). After adjusting for grade, multiple linear regression analysis revealed a significant correlation between the average illuminance of the blackboard, uniformity of desk illuminance, lighting coefficient, and distance between lamps and desks, and the decline of students’ naked eye vision within one academic year (P<0.05). Higher average illuminance of the blackboard, uniformity of desk illuminance, lighting coefficient, and distance between lamps and desks were protective factors for naked eye vision. ConclusionThe visual environment of primary and secondary school classrooms in Minhang District is a matter of concern. Average illuminance of the blackboard, uniformity of desk illuminance, lighting coefficient, and distance between lamps and desks are related to the degree of visual impairment in students over a year.

Background Previous research on chlorinated paraffins (CPs) in fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has predominantly focused on short- and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs and MCCPs), and few studies could simultaneously determine short-, medium-, and long-chain chlorinated paraffins (LCCPs). Simultaneous extraction and determination of SCCPs, MCCPs, and LCCPs in PM2.5 could provide technical support for their environmental monitoring and human health risk assessment. Objective To establish a method based on QUEChERS pretreatment method in conjunction with ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole/orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry for simultaneously determining the levels of SCCPs, MCCPs, and LCCPs in PM2.5. Methods The extraction solvents, extraction salts, and extraction steps of a QuEChERS method were optimized. The extraction efficiencies of the target substances were compared under 4 extraction solvents [acetonitrile, dichloromethane, and n-hexane solvents in sequence; acetonitrile: dichloromethane: n-hexane = 1: 1: 2 (v/v/v) mixed solvent; 1% acetic acid-acetonitrile: dichloromethane: n-hexane = 1: 1: 1 (v/v/v) mixed solvent; acetonitrile: dichloromethane: n-hexane = 1: 1: 1 (v/v/v) mixed solvent], 2 dehydrated salts (anhydrous MgSO4+NaCl and anhydrous Na2SO4+NaCl), 2 purification salts (C18 and PSA), and 4 vortex time (5, 7.5, 10, and 12.5 min) conditions. Then internal standard was utilized to estimate linear range and detection limit of the refined QuEChERS approach. Results The linearities of SCCPs, MCCPs, and LCCPs were good in the range of 10~

Objective:To explore the protective effect of methylene blue (MB) on myocardial injury in sepsis and its possible signaling pathway.Methods:A total of 32 female Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, sepsis model group, MB prevention group, and MB treatment group, with 8 rats in each group. The MB prevention group was injected with 15 mg/kg MB in the peritoneal cavity 6 hours before modeling; the other 3 groups were injected with 4 mL/kg saline in the peritoneal cavity. The sepsis model was established by cecal ligation puncture (CLP); the sham operation group was only subjected to an exploratory incision without ligation or puncture of the caecum. The MB treatment group was injected with 15 mg/kg MB in the peritoneal cavity 0.5 hours after modeling; the other 3 groups were injected with 4 mL/kg saline in the peritoneal cavity. Peripheral blood and myocardial tissue were collected from each group at 6 hours and 12 hours after modeling. Histological changes in the myocardial tissue were observed under the microscope; the levels of serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI), MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); and the expressions of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), light chain 3 (LC3), and p62 in the myocardial tissue were detected by Western blotting.Results:Under light microscopy, no obvious abnormalities were found in the myocardium of the sham operation group; the myocardium of the sepsis model group showed obvious inflammatory changes; the myocardium of the MB prevention group showed mild inflammatory changes at 6 hours after modeling, severe inflammatory changes at 12 hours but less severe than the sepsis model group; the myocardium of the MB treatment group showed more obvious inflammatory changes at 6 hours after modeling but less severe than the MB prevention group at 12 hours after modeling, and the inflammatory changes at 12 hours after modeling were alleviated but more severe than the 6 hours after modeling in MB prevention group. Compared with the sham operation group, the levels of cTnI, CK-MB, TNF-α and IL-6 in the MB prevention group at 6 hours and 12 hours after modeling were not significantly changed; compared with the sepsis model group, the cTnI, CK-MB, TNF-α and IL-6 levels in the MB treatment group at 6 hours and 12 hours after modeling were significantly lower [cTnI (ng/L): 175.03±12.26, 411.24±21.20 vs. 677.79±43.95 at 6 hours of modeling, 159.52±6.44, 412.46±32.94 vs. 687.61±55.09 at 12 hours of modeling; CK-MB (ng/L): 8.38±0.49, 16.87±1.41 vs. 24.87±1.74 at 6 hours of modeling, 7.94±0.30, 16.66±2.03 vs. 25.02±7.29 at 12 hours of modeling; TNF-α (ng/L): 26.98±3.31, 46.95±3.74 vs. 112.60±6.64 at 6 hours of modeling, 31.31±5.83, 90.97±5.14 vs. 149.30±4.67 at 12 hours of modeling; IL-6 (ng/L): 40.86±4.48, 128.90±3.14 vs. 248.90±12.76 at 6 hours of modeling, 80.13±7.94, 190.40±9.56 vs. 288.90±6.01 at 12 hours of modeling; all P < 0.05]. Western blotting showed that compared with the sham operation group, the protein expressions of iNOS, LC3, and p62 in the sepsis model group were significantly higher at 6 hours and 12 hours after modeling; compared with the sepsis model group, the protein expressions of iNOS, LC3, and p62 in the MB treatment group and MB prevention group were significantly lower at 6 hours and 12 hours after modeling (iNOS/GAPDH: 0.38±0.04, 0.60±0.04 vs. 0.77±0.04 at 6 hours of modeling; 0.38±0.02, 0.66±0.04 vs. 0.79±0.05 at 12 hours of modeling; LC3/GAPDH: 0.13±0.07, 0.42±0.07 vs. 1.05±0.16 at 6 hours of modeling; 0.08±0.02, 0.25±0.03 vs. 0.48±0.09 at 12 hours of modeling; p62/GAPDH: 0.17±0.05, 0.44±0.10 vs. 1.19±0.07 at 6 hours of modeling; 0.07±0.00, 0.28±0.08 vs. 0.69±0.02 at 12 hours of modeling; all P < 0.05). Conclusion:MB can reduce myocardial oxidative stress by inhibiting iNOS expression and mitochondrial autophagy in septic rats, thereby alleviating myocardial damage in sepsis, and has protective effect on myocardial damage in sepsis.
