Objective: To explore the relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and executive function in Chinese adolescents, so as to provide a reference for promoting the overall development of Chinese adolescents physical and mental health. Methods: From September to December 2022, a total of 5 018 adolescents aged 13 to 18 years from Shanghai, Suzhou, Taiyuan, Wuyuan, Xingyi, and Urumqi were selected by stratified cluster sampling method to assess cardiorespiratory fitness and executive function. Pearson s correlation and linear hierarchical regression were performed to analyze the relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and executive functions. Results: Among the sample of adolescents, maximal oxygen consumption (VO 2max ) was negatively correlated with the refreshing(1-back, 2-back) and conversion executive function responses ( r=-0.07, -0.12, -0.12, P <0.01). Linear regression analysis showed that VO 2max was negatively correlated with the reaction times of the refreshing(1-back, 2-back) and conversion functions ( B=-2.99, -6.44, -1.69, P <0.01). Conclusions Higher cardiorespiratory fitness among adolescents is associated with better performance in executive function. Teenagers should strengthen high intensity cardiopulmonary endurance exercise to promote the improvement of executive function.

Objective To study the application of CE-Chirp in the evaluation of hearing impairment in forensic medicine by testing the auditory brainstem response(ABR)in adults using CE-Chirp to ana-lyze the relationship between the V-wave response threshold of CE-Chirp ABR test and the pure tone hearing threshold.Methods Subjects(aged 20-77 with a total of 100 ears)who underwent CE-Chirp ABR test in Changzhou De'an Hospital from January 2018 to June 2019 were selected to obtain the V-wave response threshold,and pure tone air conduction hearing threshold tests were conducted at 0.5,1.0,2.0 and 4.0 kHz,respectively,to obtain pure tone listening threshold.The differences and statistical differences between the average pure tone hearing threshold and V-wave response threshold were compared in different hearing levels and different age groups.The correlation,differences and statistical differences between the two tests at each frequency were analyzed for all subjects.The lin-ear regression equation for estimating pure tone hearing threshold for all subjects CE-Chirp ABR V-wave response threshold was established,and the feasibility of the equation was tested.Results There was no statistical significance in the CE-Chirp ABR response threshold and pure tone hearing threshold dif-ference between different hearing level groups and different age groups(P>0.05).There was a good correlation between adult CE-Chirp ABR V-wave response threshold and pure tone hearing threshold with statistical significance(P<0.05),and linear regression analysis showed a significant linear correla-tion between the two(P<0.05).Conclusion The use of CE-Chirp ABR V-wave response threshold can be used to evaluate subjects'pure tone hearing threshold under certain conditions,and can be used as an audiological test method for forensic hearing impairment assessment.

BACKGROUND:Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system mediated by T cells.The Toll-like receptors(TLRs)/myeloid differentiation factor 88(MyD88)/nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB)signaling pathway plays an important role in the development of the disease.Exploring the specific mechanism of the signaling pathway is essential for further treatment of the disease and improving the prognosis of patients. OBJECTIVE:To review the TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway and its role in multiple sclerosis/experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis models,which provides new ideas and strategies for the treatment of multiple sclerosis by inhibiting the TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway. METHODS:The literature related to the topic from January 2002 to December 2022 was searched in CNKI,WanFang and PubMed databases.A total of 61 articles were finally included for analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway is an important pathway that triggers a pro-inflammatory immune response.The TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway plays an important role in the development of multiple sclerosis by regulating the antigen presentation of dendritic cells,destroying the integrity of the blood-brain barrier,and promoting the activation of T cells,B cells and microglia.By targeting TLRs,MyD88 and NF-κB molecules,inhibiting the activation or signal transduction of TLRs,MyD88 and NF-κB,and reducing the secretion of pro-inflammatory factors,multiple sclerosis can be treated.Animal studies have shown that active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicines,such as flavonoids and glycosides,and traditional Chinese medicine compound formulas,such as Buyang Huanwu Tang,can also treat experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis by regulating the TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway,which points to the direction of searching for medicines targeting the TLRs/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway for the treatment of multiple sclerosis.

BACKGROUND:Rotator cuff muscle degeneration(muscle atrophy,fibrosis and fatty infiltration)is a common condition after rotator cuff tears,which seriously affects shoulder function and surgical outcomes.Ginsenoside Rg1 has biological effects such as anti-oxidation,anti-apoptosis and lipid-lowering.However,the effect of ginsenoside Rg1 on muscle degeneration after rotator cuff tear has not been reported. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of ginsenoside Rg1 on muscle degeneration after massive rotator cuff tear in mice. METHODS:Sixty C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into sham group,model group,ginsenoside Rg1 low dose group and ginsenoside Rg1 high dose group,with 15 mice in each group.The skin of the right shoulder of mice in the sham group was cut and sutured.Massive rotator cuff tear mouse models of the right shoulder were established in the other three groups.Supraspinatus tendon and suprascapular nerve compression were administrated.Mice in the sham and model groups were intraperitoneally injected with 0.5 mL of saline after operation,while those in the ginsenoside Rg1 low and high dose groups were intraperitoneally injected with ginsenoside Rg1 30 and 60 mg/kg respectively,once a day,for 6 weeks.Mice were assessed for limb function by gait analysis the day after the last injection.After euthanasia,the supraspinatus muscle on the operated side was taken to measure the muscle atrophy rate and muscle contractility.Muscle tissue was stained with oil red O and Masson.RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of atrophy,fibrosis,and fatty infiltration related genes. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the model group,low-and high-dose ginsenoside Rg1 significantly increased paw print area and step length(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,low-and high-dose ginsenoside Rg1 significantly increased myofiber cross-sectional area and supraspinatus contractility(P<0.05),and significantly decreased wet muscle mass reduction ratio,fatty infiltration area ratio,and collagen fiber area ratio(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,low-and high-dose ginsenoside Rg1 significantly decreased the expression of atrophy,fibrosis,and fatty infiltration related genes(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in paw print area,supraspinatus muscle contractility,and myofiber cross-sectional area between ginsenoside Rg1 low and high dose groups(P>0.05),and all other indexes were better in the ginsenoside Rg1 high dose group than in the ginsenoside Rg1 low dose group(P<0.05).To conclude,ginsenoside Rg1 could significantly reduce muscle atrophy,fibrosis and fatty infiltration following massive rotator cuff tear in mice,which is beneficial to improve muscle strength and limb function.

Objective Viral encephalitis is an infectious disease severely affecting human health.It is caused by a wide variety of viral pathogens,including herpes viruses,flaviviruses,enteroviruses,and other viruses.The laboratory diagnosis of viral encephalitis is a worldwide challenge.Recently,high-throughput sequencing technology has provided new tools for diagnosing central nervous system infections.Thus,In this study,we established a multipathogen detection platform for viral encephalitis based on amplicon sequencing. Methods We designed nine pairs of specific polymerase chain reaction(PCR)primers for the 12 viruses by reviewing the relevant literature.The detection ability of the primers was verified by software simulation and the detection of known positive samples.Amplicon sequencing was used to validate the samples,and consistency was compared with Sanger sequencing. Results The results showed that the target sequences of various pathogens were obtained at a coverage depth level greater than 20×,and the sequence lengths were consistent with the sizes of the predicted amplicons.The sequences were verified using the National Center for Biotechnology Information BLAST,and all results were consistent with the results of Sanger sequencing. Conclusion Amplicon-based high-throughput sequencing technology is feasible as a supplementary method for the pathogenic detection of viral encephalitis.It is also a useful tool for the high-volume screening of clinical samples.

Objective:To examine the burden and trends of acute viral hepatitis in Guangdong Province from 1990 to 2019, and provide reference evidences for hepatitis prevention and control in the province.Methods:Data on acute viral hepatitis (hepatitis A, B, C, and E) in Guangdong from 1990 to 2019 were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 database. The incidence, prevalence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) data were analyzed by age and gender, and the estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was calculated to describe the changing trends in disease burden.Results:From 1999 to 2019, the standardized incidence, prevalence, mortality, and DALY of acute viral hepatitis in Guangdong were higher than the national averages. In 2019, 51.43% (2 245 087/4 365 221) of acute viral hepatitis cases in Guangdong Province were mainly attributed to hepatitis B, and 77.18% (106/138) of deaths were due to acute hepatitis B. In different age groups, except for acute hepatitis B, which was more common in adults, the incidence rates of other types of viral hepatitis such as hepatitis A, B, and E showed an overall decreasing trend with age. The mortality rates of different types of acute viral hepatitis, except for the <5 age group, increased with age. The overall incidence and mortality rates of acute viral hepatitis were higher in men than in women.Conclusions:The overall burden of acute viral hepatitis in Guangdong declined in 2019, but remained higher than the national level. Further efforts are needed to strengthen hepatitis prevention and screening in different population in Guangdong Province, especially in children and the elderly.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals，of which 7 895（87.4%）were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140（12.6%）were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（ n=4 510，49.9%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（ n=2 340，25.9%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（ n=534，5.9%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（ n=405，4.5%）and Enterobacter cloacae（ n=327，3.6%）. The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%（2 095/4 452），21.0%（427/2 033）and 41.1%（58/141），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（58/4 510）and 13.1%（307/2 340）；62.1%（36/58）and 9.8%（30/307）of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 59.5%（241/405），while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 18.4%（98/534）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA（ χ2=20.489 and 20.252， P<0.001）. The prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA，CRAB，ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=11.953，81.183，10.404，5.915，12.415 and 6.459， P<0.01 or <0.05），while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions（per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan）than that in economically less-developed regions（per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=6.240， P=0.012）. Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different，and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

Objective To investigate the effects of linoleic acid(LA)on the diversity and structure of intestinal flora in mice.Methods Twelve SPF grade male C57BL/6J mice at 7 weeks were randomly divided into control group(CTRL group)and linoleic acid group(LA group).One day before the linoleic acid diet was supplemented,the normal food was removed from the LA group and the mice in the LA group were fasted for one night,so that the LA diet was more acceptable to the mice in the LA group,and LA was given on the day of the experiment recording,and the feed was updated at any time to ensure that the mice could eat freely until the end of modeling.After 12 weeks of modeling,mouse feces were collected,and mixed samples were collected for every two mice feces,and then 16sRNA high-throughput sequencing was performed to analyze intestinal flora structure,Alpha and Beta diversity.Results 16sRNA high-throughput sequencing showed that LA intervention damaged the richness and diversity of intestinal flora.The results of principal component analysis showed that the composition of flora in CTRL group was different from that in LA group.At gate level,the relative abundance of Actinobacteria in LA group increased(P＜0.01).At the genus level,the relative abundance of L.Duchennei in the LA group decreased(P＜0.05),but the relative abundance of Bifidobacterium,Faecalibaculum and Erysipelotrichaceae in the LA group increased(all P＜0.01).Conclusion LA intervention could reduce the richness and diversity of intestinal flora in mice,and adjust the structure of intestinal flora.There were significant differences between beneficial bacteria and pathogenic bacte-ria in intestinal flora after LA intervention,which provided certain basis for the treatment of bioactive compounds of linoleic acid and the therapeutic adjustment of intestinal microorganisms as targets.

Objective:To analyze the expression of FAT1 gene in pancreatic adenocarcinoma and its relationship with clinicopathological features, prognosis, and immunotherapy for pancreatic adenocarcinoma.Methods:(1) Bioinformatics analysis: based on FAT1 mRNA expression and clinical data of 179 cases of pancreatic adenocarcinoma in the TCGA database, and FAT1 mRNA expression data of 328 cases of normal pancreatic tissues in the GTEx database. We analyzed the differences in FAT1 mRNA expression in pancreatic adenocarcinoma and normal pancreatic tissues and the relationship between FAT1 mRNA expression and the degree of differentiation, clinical stage, prognosis, immune cell infiltration, and immune checkpoint-associated genes in pancreatic adenocarcinoma. FAT1-related differentially expressed genes were analyzed by applying Limma 3.40.2 software package, and GO and KEGG enrichment analysis was performed on the differentially expressed genes. Immunohistochemical (IHC) of FAT1 in pancreatic adenocarcinoma and normal pancreatic tissues was analyzed by HPA database. (2) Validation of own tissue samples: tissue samples and clinical and prognostic data of 192 patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma admitted to Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from March 8, 2010 to September 30, 2020 were collected. IHC was performed on the tissue samples to verify the protein expression of FAT1 in pancreatic adenocarcinoma and its relationship with immune-related proteins, the degree of differentiation of pancreatic adenocarcinoma, clinical staging, and prognosis.Results:(1) Bioinformatics analysis: the FAT1 mRNA expression of 179 pancreatic adenocarcinoma tissues from the TCGA database was 5.55±1.04, which was higher than that of 328 normal pancreatic tissues with FAT1 mRNA from the GTEx database (2.95±0.53, P＜0.001). FAT1-specific IHC images showed that FAT1 expression was generally high in pancreatic adenocarcinoma tissues, and FAT1 expression shifted from the cell membrane to the cytoplasm. The FAT1 mRNA expression in the highly differentiated group (31 cases), the moderately differentiated group (96 cases), and the lowly differentiated group (52 cases) were 4.99±1.46, 5.51±0.80, and 5.68±1.08, the expression of pancreatic adenocarcinoma tissues were all higher than that of normal pancreatic tissues (all P＜0.001), and the FAT1 mRNA expression of the moderately differentiated group and the poorly differentiated group were all higher than that of the highly differentiated group (all P＜0.001). The median progression-free survival time (PFS) and median overall survival time (OS) of the 90 patients in the FAT1 mRNA low-expression group were 16.5 and 24 months, respectively, which were longer than those of the 89 patients in the FAT1 mRNA high-expression group (median PFS and OS were 13 and 18 months, respectively; P-values were 0.011 and 0.005, respectively). Multifactorial Cox regression analysis showed that FAT1 mRNA expression level was an independent influencing factor for OS in pancreatic adenocarcinoma patients ( HR=1.47, 95% CI: 1.09-1.99). Correlation analysis showed that FAT1 mRNA expression in pancreatic adenocarcinoma was positively correlated with B-cell infiltration, CD8+ T-cell infiltration, neutrophil infiltration, macrophage infiltration, and myeloid dendritic cell infiltration ( ρ=0.27, P＜0.001; ρ=0.28, P＜0.001; ρ=0.32, P＜0.001; ρ=0.21, P=0.004; ρ=0.32, P＜0.001), and also positively correlated with mRNA expression of CD274, HAVCR2, and PDCD1LG2 ( r=0.327, P＜0.001; r=0.231, P=0.002; r=0.258, P＜0.001). GO and KEGG enrichment analyses showed that FAT1 mRNA expression levels were associated with activation of the Wnt signaling pathway ( P=0.029), the PI3K/Akt pathway ( P<0.001), and other tumor microenvironment-related pathways. (2) Validation of own tissue samples: among 192 pancreatic adenocarcinoma tissues, FAT1 was highly expressed in 58 cases (30.21%), and the proportion of FAT1-expressing positive tumor cells was positively correlated with the combined positive score of PD-L1 and the number of CD3+ T-cells infiltration ( r=0.154, P=0.032; r=0.287, P＜0.001), and the protein expression of FAT1 had no correlation with the differentiation degree of pancreatic adenocarcinoma ( ρ=0.082, P=0.254). The median OS of 58 patients in the FAT1 high-expression group and 134 patients in the FAT1 low-expression group were 18.89 and 25.84 months, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (χ2=1.93, P=0.165). Conclusion:FAT1 gene is highly expressed in pancreatic adenocarcinoma tissues, may play an oncogenic role in pancreatic adenocarcinoma, may be an adverse influence on overall survival and progression-free survival of patients; FAT1 gene may be involved in multiple immune-related pathways and promote tumor immune escape.

Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction with multivessel disease is one of the high-risk types of coronary heart disease.Early opening of infarct-related artery and reperfusion of myocardium could significantly reduce the mortality in acute phase.However,the presence of non-culprit lesions in non-infarct-related arteries is still at risk and has an important impact on the long-term prognosis of patients.It remains controversial on how to precisely evaluate the clinical significance and revascularization value of non-culprit lesions.This article aims to review the research status and progress of guidance strategies of non-culprit lesion revascularization in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and multivessel disease.
