东方田鼠室内繁殖与生长发育观察

近年来,逐渐增多的小鼠突变系资源已对现有的动物设施和品种（系）的保存方法提出严峻的挑战,小鼠胚胎和配合子的低温保存是目前保存小鼠种群资源中应用最为广泛的方法,通过低温保存不仅使原有的或新开发的小鼠品系得以安全的,长期的保存下来,同时也使这些小 模型的规模化生产,推广普及变得更为简单化,无疑,小鼠模型的保存将为21世纪哺乳类遗传学的飞速发展和最终攻克人类目前的疑难疾病创造了有利条件。

Long non-coding RNA LINC01116 accelerates the progression of keloid formation by regulating miR-203/SMAD5 axis

BackgroundEmerging evidence reveals the importance of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the development and progression of keloid formation. However, the roles and molecular mechanism of lncRNA LINC01116 in the progression of keloid formation remain largely unknown.MethodsThe expression levels of LINC01116, microRNA-203 (miR-203) and SMAD family member 5 (SMAD5) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot. Cell proliferation, migration and invasion were detected by Cell counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and transwell assay. Flow cytometry and western blot assay were used to examine cell apoptosis and extracellular matrix (ECM) production. The interaction between miR-203 and LINC01116 or SMAD5 was predicted by bioinformatics analysis and verified by dual-luciferase reporter and RNA Immunoprecipitation (RIP) and RNA pull-down assays.ResultsLINC01116 and SMAD5 were upregulated while miR-203 was downregulated in keloid tissues and keloid fibroblasts. LINC01116 knockdown suppressed the proliferation, migration, invasion, and ECM production but induced apoptosis in keloid fibroblasts through enhancing miR-203 and inhibiting SMAD5. Moreover, SMAD5 was identified as a direct target of miR-203 and miR-203 could directly bind to LINC01116. Besides, LINC01116 regulated SMAD5 expression by targeting miR-203.ConclusionDownregulation of LINC01116 inhibited the progression of keloid formation by regulating miR-203/SMAD5 axis, which might provide a novel target for keloid therapy.     

Risks of AKI and Major Adverse Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome or Coronavirus Disease 2019

BackgroundSevere acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are closely related. The effect of AKI on the clinical outcomes of these two conditions is unclear.MethodsThis retrospective, territory-wide cohort study used an electronic public healthcare database in Hong Kong to identify patients with SARS or COVID-19 by diagnosis codes, virologic results, or both. The primary endpoint was a composite of intensive care unit admission, use of invasive mechanical ventilation, and/or death.ResultsWe identified 1670 patients with SARS and 1040 patients with COVID-19 (median ages, 41 versus 35 years, respectively). Among patients with SARS, 26% met the primary endpoint versus 5.3% of those with COVID-19. Diabetes mellitus, abnormal liver function, and AKI were factors significantly associated with the primary endpoint among patients with either SARS or COVID-19. Among patients with SARS, 7.9%, 2.1%, and 3.7% developed stage 1, stage 2, and stage 3 AKI, respectively; among those with COVID-19, 6.6%, 0.4%, and 1.1% developed stage 1, stage 2, and stage 3 AKI, respectively. In both groups, factors significantly associated with AKI included diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Among patients with AKI, those with COVID-19 had a lower rate of major adverse clinical outcomes versus patients with SARS. Renal function recovery usually occurred within 30 days after an initial AKI event.ConclusionsAKI rates were higher among patients with SARS than those with COVID-19. AKI was associated with major adverse clinical outcomes for both diseases. Patients with diabetes mellitus and abnormal liver function were also at risk of developing severe consequences after SARS and COVID-19 infection.

不同b值条件下心脏体素内不相干运动成像相关参数的一致性

目的观察不同b值条件下心脏体素内不相干运动(IVIM)成像相关参数的一致性。方法对30名健康志愿者行左心室中间部IVIM扫描,以双指数模型获取IVIM参数值慢速表观弥散系数(ADCslow)、快速ADC(ADCfast)及灌注分数f。比较9个b值(0、20、50、80、100、120、200、300、500 s/mm^2)与7个b值(0、20、80、100、200、300、500 s/mm^2)条件下所测参数值的差异,采用组内相关系数(ICC)分析2名医师测量参数结果的一致性,以Bland-Altman检验分析不同b值条件下所测参数的一致性。结果9个与7个b值条件下ADCslow、ADCfast及f差异均无统计学意义(P均>0.05),且2名医师测量IVIM参数的组内及组间一致性均较好(ICC均≥0.66,P均<0.05)。Bland-Altman图显示,9个与7个b值时ADCslow的平均偏差为-0.07×10-3 mm^2/s,一致性界限(-1.87,1.73);ADCfast的平均偏差1.57×10-3 mm^2/s,一致性界限(-72.64,75.77);f的平均偏差1.17%,一致性界限(-13.45,15.79)。结论9个与7个b值条件下心脏IVIM成像各参数值的一致性较好。     

Phase Transformation Behavior of the Aluminosilicate Phase During High-Pressure Hydrothermal Reduction of High-Iron Red Mud

One-step separation and recovery of sodium, aluminum and iron in high-iron red mud in a high-calcium alkaline hydrothermal system is realized by a high-pressure hydrothermal reduction process. The transformation behavior of the aluminasilica phase in high-iron red mud is mainly investigated. The results show that under the optimized conditions, a temperature of 290℃, a Na₂O concentration of 240 g/L, a calcium to silicon ratio of 3.5, and a liquid–solid ratio of 5, the Na₂O content in the transition slag is reduced to 0.12%, the dealkalization rate can reach 98%, and the alumina dissolution rate is 73%. When the starch-free reductant is added, the transition slag mainly consists of hematite and hydroandradite, and when the starch reductant is added (the addition amount is 1/4 that of ω(Fe₂O₃) in the red mud), all Fe₂O₃ in the transition slag is completely reduced to Fe₃O₄, and the main phases are magnetite and hydrogrossular.

     

The introduction of treatment and the cultural adaptability of western psychotherapies for eating disorders in China

In the past 40 years, the prevalence of eating disorders (ED) in China has shown an increasing trend, leading to an urgent need to develop efficient treatment modes and methods. Since the beginning of the new century, the diagnosis, treatment, and research of ED in China have been under development. This article gives an introduction and commentary on the treatment modes, treatment methods and their applications in ED in China. There are two main treatment forms for ED until now, that is, inpatient treatment and outpatient treatment. Inpatient treatment is recommended as the first choice. Since 2008, clinical psychotherapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and family-based treatment (FBT), which are effective for pathological symptoms of ED, have been introduced into China and developed clinically. Group CBT and group DBT for patients with ED and group FBT for caregivers might be the most efficient psychotherapy in China nowadays. A multi-family FBT support group could be developed as the basic treatment of ED patients. Although these new types of psychotherapy have observed effectiveness in clinical application, the Randomized Controlled Trials (RCT) are rare and need to be developed.
