Objective:
This study examined school-based sexual harassment experience among college students in Guangzhou, and to provide theoretical basis for preventing campus sexual harassment.
Methods:
A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 1 062 college students from five universities in Guangzhou, China. A self-made questionnaire regarding awareness sexual harassment and experience of school-based sexual harassment was filled out by students voluntarily and anonymously.
Results:
A total of 169 students reported they experienced school-based sexual harassment. The incidence of school-based sexual harassment among college students in Guangzhou was 15.91%, higher among female students (20.30%) than male students(10.2%)(χ 2=19.91, P<0.01). Verbal harassment (10.26%) was the most common type of sexual harassment, followed by physical harassment (7.16%), visual harassment (4.61%) and unwanted sexual advances (1.69%). Sexual harassment primarily took place in teaching building(58), dormitory(33) and office(17). Among the victims, 116(68.64%) were influenced by harassment. Females(n=94) being harassed were more likely to be negatively influenced compare to males(n=22).
Conclusion
School-based sexual harassment may result adverse psychological outcomes to students, more emphasis should be put on the prevention of sexual harassment.

Objective:To explore the clinical features, diagnosis and prognosis of renal transplant recipients with COVID-19.Methods:The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed for 2 kidney transplant recipients with COVID-19. Based upon clinical manifestations, blood routine, inflammatory factors, cell immunity, chest computed tomography(CT)and therapeutic efficacies, the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 in kidney transplant recipients(Interim Edition V)were compared to that of ordinary COVID-19 patients. Both recipients had an onset of low/moderate fever. There was no initial symptom of cough or fatigue. Blood routine indicated a normal count of leukocytes, a marked lymphocytopenia, elevated C-reactive protein(CRP)and slightly higher procalcitonin(PCT). Cellular immunity was extremely low and chest CT showed multiple patchy ground-glass opacities in both lungs.Results:After 1 week of onset, both patients had a marked disease progression. The pathogenesis and imaging changes were highly similar to those reported for ordinary COVID-19 patients. For preventing secondary infections, both received symptomatic supportive measures of antiviral agents, withdrawing immunosuppressants, tapering of hormone maintenance dose, intravenous drip of gamma globulin and respiratory supports. Currently the conditions of both patients obviously improved and renal function was stable. One case recovered and was discharged.Conclusions:The clinical manifestations of COVID-19 in renal transplant recipients are generally consistent with that of ordinary COVID-19 patients. Although there is no established treatment for COVID-19, withdrawing immunosuppressants, maintaining small and medium doses of hormones, actively restoring immunity and providing respiratory supports in a timely manner are effective.

Objective:
To explore the clinical features, diagnosis and prognosis of renal transplant recipients with NCP.
Method:
The clinical data of 2 cases of kidney transplant recipients with NCP were retrospectively analyzed. Based onclinical manifestations, blood routine, inflammatory factors, cell immunity, chest CT andtherapeutic effects, the diagnosis and treatment of NCP in kidney transplant recipients (5th edition) were compared to that ofordinary NCP patients. Both recipients developed onset of low andmoderate fever, with no cough or fatigue at the initial stage. Blood routine indicated a normal range of leukocytes,buta significant decrease in lymphocyte counts, increased C-reactive protein (CRP) , and slightly higher procalcitonin (PCT) . The cellular immunity was extremely low, and the chest CT showed multiple patchy ground glass shadows in both lungs.
Result:
After 1 week of onset, both patients had significant disease progression. The pathogenesis and imaging changes were highly similar tothatreported in ordinary NCP patients.Two patients were givensymptomatic supportive treatment by antiviral agents, stop uses ofimmunosuppression agents, small amount of hormone maintenance, intravenous drip of gamma globulin andrespiratory support toavoid secondary infections. At present, the condition of both patients is obviously improved, and renal function is stable. One of them has recovered and was discharged.
Conclusion
The clinical manifestations of NCP in renal transplant recipients were generally consistent with that of ordinary NCP patients. Although there is no established method for the treatment of NCP, it is effective by stopping uses of immunosuppressive agents, maintaining small and medium doses of hormones, actively restoring immunity, and providing respiratory support in a timely manner.

Objective To approach the selection of appropriate period and mode of blood purification for treatment of patients with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP)based on acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ)score. Methods The clinical data of 89 patients with SAP were retrospectively analyzed. They were assigned into two groups:the hemoperfusion(HP)and short continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration(SCVVHDF) group(HP+SCVVHDF,49 cases)and the HP and hemodiafiltration(HDF)group(HP+HDF,40 cases). All the patients were evaluated by APACHEⅡscore. In the HP+HDF group,26 cases with APACHEⅡ<15 were in group A, while 14 cases with 15-25 in group B. In the HP+SCVVHDF group,31 cases with the score 15-25 were in group C, and 18 cases with<15 in group D. One week after the treatment,APACHEⅡscore,oxygenation index(PaO2/FiO2), C-reactive protein(CRP),serum creatinine(SCr),alanine transaminase(ALT)and mortality were observed in all the groups. Results Compared to those before treatment,the APACHEⅡ scores(group A:7.35±2.12 vs. 10.52±3.26,group B:14.35±4.76 vs. 18.43±4.08,group C:11.83±3.85 vs. 19.39±3.64,group D:6.92±2.54 vs. 11.61±2.19),the levels of CRP(mg/L,group A:85.28±23.48 vs. 195.23±56.77,group B:172.67±36.69 vs. 232.65±62.86,group C:112.43±29.48 vs. 257.29±68.39,group D:76.23±29.05 vs. 206.37±65.49),SCr (μmol/L,group A:107.56±73.01 vs. 225.81±119.06,group B:291.49±123.27 vs. 391.76±273.48,group C:254.89±104.37 vs. 403.62±261.53,group D:112.36±55.36 vs. 258.74±128.25)and ALT(U/L,group A:86.93±27.04 vs. 127.56±84.35, group B:116.34±43.98 vs. 189.15±102.85, group C:94.85±74.42 vs. 178.73±87.21,group D:88.49±29.32 vs. 138.24±90.58)after treatment were all decreased markedly in the four groups. The levels of PaO2/FiO2 were obviously higher in the 4 groups after treatment〔mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), group A:293.42±31.26 vs. 253.60±26.62,group B:254.12±35.73 vs. 137.56±23.48,group C:283.21±37.48 vs. 131.96±0.45,group D:305.75±29.66 vs. 267.74±31.42〕,but no statistical significant differences in above indexes between group A and group D were found(all P>0.05),while the APACHEⅡ score,PaO2/FiO2,CRP, SCr and ALT were improved more significantly in group C than those in group B(P<0.05 or P<0.01). The mortality rate of those SAP patients with APACHEⅡscore<15 was lower than those in cases with APACHEⅡscore 15-20〔6.82%(3/44)vs. 24.44%(11/45),P<0.05〕. Conclusions Blood purification is an effective measure to save patients with SAP. The APACHEⅡ score used to select the mode of blood purification in appropriate period for treatment of SAP has guiding significance. Currently the modes of blood purification have limited value and cannot cure all SAP patients.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of renal damage due to rupture of atheroselerotic plaque of renal artery in apolipoprotein E (ApoE) knock-out mice. Methods The model for atherosclerotie renal artery stenosis (ARAS) was established by using ApoE knockout mice. The model mice with renal artery stenosis <50% were divided into the plaque rupture group and the non-plaque rupture group. Wild-type C57BL/6J mice were used as the control group. All the mice were raised under the same conditions. The renal arteries and kidneys were collected for the following analysis. Nuclear factor-kappa-Bp65 (NF-kBp65), intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and P-selectin (P-sel) were determined by Western blotting. The expression of interleukin 6 (IL-6) mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. Immunohistochemistry was performed by using serial sections to detect F4/80-related macrophages. Urine n-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase (NAG) activity was determined by direct enzyme-substrate coloration. Results In comparison with the nonplaque rupture group and the control group, the expression of NF-kBp65 protein in the blood, renal artery and kidney increased significantly in the plaque rupture group (P<0.05). The expression of F4/80, ICAM-1, P-sel, and IL-6 mRNA were increased significantly in the plaque rupture group (P<0.05), as compared with the non-plaque rupture group and the control group. The Ser and the activity of urine NAG in the plaque rupture group were higher than those in the non-plaque rapture group. The expression of NF-KBp65 protein differed insignificantly between the control group and the non-plaque rupture group (P>O.05). The group differences in the expression of F4/80, ICAM-1, P-sel, and IL-6 mRNA were similar to those in the expression of NF-KBp65 protein. The group differences in the activity of urine NAG and the Scr were similar to those in the expression of NF-kBp65 protein. Conclusion Rupture of atherosclerotic plaque of renal artery causes renal pathology change and renal function damage, which is mediated by inflammation.

Objective To investigate the xenotransplantation model of fetal pig skin precursor tissue and its development after transplantaion. Methods Porcine skin precursor tissue was obtained from the embryo of gestation day 56 (E56), and made into microskin or stamp skin graft. The microskin was transplanted to the dorsal wound in BALB/c nude mice, then covered with human corpse skin. The stamp skin graft was imbedded subcutaneously into the back of nude mice, and microskin was injected subcutaneously into the auricles of nude mice. Their growth and development were observed and they were examined by HE staining at 6th and 12th week after transplantation respectively. Two-sample t test was used to analyze the size of newly grown skin tissue. Results Porcine skin precursor tissue graft in three models above survived and continued growth after transplantation, and growth ability of the dorsal wound transplantation model was significantly stronger than that of the auricle model. Epidermis and hypodermis were detected in newly grown skin tissues. Hair follicles, a few of sebaceous glands, but no sweat glands were observed in auricle model, while many sebaceous glands and sweat glands were observed in the dorsal wound model. Conclusion Transplantation of microskin to dorsal wound is the optimal model of investigating the xenotransplantation of fetal pig skin precursor tissue and its development after transplantion.
