Abstract
Objective: To explore the association between the accumulation of metabolic syndrome (MS) components and abnormal brachial ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), and to investigate the effect of accumulation of abnormal metabolic components on abnormal baPWV among adult individuals undergoing routine health examination. Methods: It's a cross-sectional study. Data from 9 201 stratified sampled subjects, aged between 25 to 75 years old, who took part in the annual health checkups in 11 cities of Zhejiang Province from January to December 2016, were analyzed. Blood pressure(BP), fasting plasma glucose(FPG), waist circumference(WC), triglyceride(TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterols(HDL-C) were defined as MS components. The baPWV was measured by VP-1000 (BP-203RPE Ⅲ) and ΔbaPWV (measured baPWV-reference baPWV/reference baPWV) ×100 (%)> 10% was defined as abnormal. The relationship between MS components and ΔbaPWV was analyzed by linear regression, and impact of accumulation of MS components on ΔbaPWV was analyzed by logistic regression, and the ΔbaPWV in subjects with different levels of MS components were analyzed by analysis of variance. Results: (1) The linear regression analysis demonstrated a positive correlation between ΔbaPWV and MS components including systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, WC, FPG, TG, while ΔbaPWV was negatively correlated with HDL-C. The β values were 0.518, 0.616, 0.208, 2.778, 1.862, -1.339, respectively (all P<0.001), indicating a strong association between ΔbaPWV and systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and FPG. (2) The logistic regression analysis showed that the proportion of abnormal ΔbaPWV was 2.595 times higher in MS individuals than in non-MS individuals (P<0.001). Abnormal ΔbaPWV increased in proportion with increase in numbers of the metabolic components (OR=1.913, 2.884, 3.833, 6.161, 11.176 in individuals with 1,2,3,4,5 metabolic components, respectively, all P<0.001). (3) The logistic analysis suggested that each component of MS could affect baPWV,and OR was 4.68, 2.45 for systolic blood pressure and/or diastolic blood pressure and FPG. All combinations of 2 components of MS also significantly affected baPWV,and OR value was the highest (5.104(95%CI 4.281-6.085), P<0.001) for FPG+BP. All combinations of 3 components of MS significantly affected baPWV,and OR value was the highest(5.385(95%CI 4.245-6.831), P<0.001) for BP+FPG+TG. All combinations of 4 components of MS affected baPWV,and OR value was the highest (6.519(95%CI 4.731-8.984), P<0.001) for BP+FPG+WC+TG. (4) Finally, every component of MS was divided into 3 levels, their impact on abnormal ΔbaPWV was analyzed. Prevalence of abnormal ΔbaPWV significantly increased with the increasing levels of the metabolic components expect for HDL-C, the F values were 1 224.66, 832.89, 192.72, 112.79 and 56.22, respectively (all P<0.001), indicating that higher levels of metabolic components significantly affected the ΔbaPWV. Conclusions: MS and accumulation of abnormal MS components are closely related with abnormal ΔbaPWV, and the combination of BP and FPG have the greatest impact on the abnormal ΔbaPWV. Analysis on the accumulation of MS components might serve as an early indicator of arteriosclerosis.

Blood Pressure Is Associated with Receiving Intravitreal Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Treatment in Patients with Diabetes. Ophthalmol Retina 2019; 3:410-416. [PMID: 31044732 DOI: 10.1016/j.oret.2019.01.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2018] [Revised: 01/29/2019] [Accepted: 01/29/2019] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections are used commonly in the treatment of diabetic retinopathy (DR), but the need for treatment and frequency of administration vary considerably among patients. There is no way to predict which patients will require treatment and how frequently injections will be needed. This study aimed to identify factors associated with receiving anti-VEGF injections and the number of treatments received in an 18-month period in patients with diabetes. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. PARTICIPANTS Two thousand nine hundred sixteen patients with diabetes treated at the Kellogg Eye Center Retina Clinic from June 1, 2016, through December 31, 2017. METHODS Retrospective analysis was performed with institutional review board approval using data collected from diabetic patients treated at the retina clinic at the Kellogg Eye Center. Logistic regression was used to identify demographic and medical factors associated with receiving at least 1 injection. Negative binomial regression was used to model the number of anti-VEGF injections. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Receiving at least 1 anti-VEGF injection and the number of anti-VEGF injections received during the study period. RESULTS Systolic blood pressure and a diagnosis of DR were associated significantly with receiving an injection. A history of kidney disease was associated positively with the number of injections received. Type 1 diabetes was associated negatively with receiving an injection and the number of injections. Current hemoglobin A1c level was not associated with either receiving an injection or the number of injections. CONCLUSIONS Elevated blood pressure is associated significantly with the need for treatment with anti-VEGF injections in patients with diabetes, and a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes is associated negatively with both receiving treatment and the number of injections. Of note, current glycemic control is not associated significantly with either outcome measure. To our knowledge, these associations have not been previously reported, and imply that factors that confer risk for DR development may not be the same that confer risk for treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the effect of monochromatic images and metal artifact reduction (MAR) on the image quality of spectral CT portal venous angiography in patients with operation of after the performing transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent shunt(TIPS) and embolization. Methods: From December 2017 to April 2018, the examination data of 28 patients with portal hypertension due to cirrhosis who underwent portal vein angiography 1 month after TIPS and embolization were prospectively collected. After spectral CT scanning in revolution CT, the monochromatic energy levels(60 keV, 120 keV), 60 keV + 120 keV, 120kV-like + 120 keV fused images combined with MAR algorithm were reconstructed. Quantitative parameters such as image artifact index (AI) and qualitative visual evaluation scores were recorded and compared. Results: The 120 keV monochromatic images showed the lowest AI value(30.8±8.5, 18.2±4.3) and highest metal artifacts reduction effect. The 60 keV monochromatic images showed the highest AI value (57.3±15.7, 32.1±7.9) and the lowest metal artifacts reduction effect. The AI value of 60 keV + 120 keV fused images was lower than that of 60 keV images(26.2%, 24.7%). The difference of AI value between each group was statistically significant(all P<0.05). The interobserver agreement in the subjective image scores was moderate with kappa value of 0.824. The overall image quality score of 60 keV + 120 keV fused image and the noise score of 120 kV-like+120 keV were higher than the remaining groups. The differences of the subjective scores among each group were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Conclusion: The spectral CT with MAR algorithm can effectively improve the image quality of portal vein angiography after the TIPS and embolization therapy and the 60 keV + 120 keV fused images can eliminate artifacts and ensure a clear display of blood vessels.

Abstract
Organic compounds in the atmosphere vary widely in their molecular composition and chemical properties, so no single instrument can reasonably measure the entire range of ambient compounds. Over the past decade, a new generation of in situ, field-deployable mass spectrometers has dramatically improved our ability to detect, identify, and quantify these organic compounds, but no systematic approach has been developed to assess the extent to which currently available tools capture the entire space of chemical identity and properties that is expected in the atmosphere. Reduced-parameter frameworks that have been developed to describe atmospheric mixtures are exploited here to characterize the range of chemical properties accessed by a suite of instruments. Multiple chemical spaces (e.g. oxidation state of carbon vs. volatility, and oxygen number vs. carbon number) were populated with ions measured by several mass spectrometers, with gas- and particle-phase α-pinene oxidation products serving as the test mixture of organic compounds. Few gaps are observed in the coverage of the parameter spaces by the instruments employed in this work, though the full extent to which comprehensive measurement was achieved is difficult to assess due to uncertainty in the composition of the mixture. Overlaps between individual ions and regions in parameter space were identified, both between gas- and particle-phase measurements, and within each phase. These overlaps were conservatively found to account for little (<10%) of the measured mass. However, challenges in identifying overlaps and in accurately converting molecular formulas into chemical properties (such as volatility or reactivity) highlight a continued need to incorporate structural information into atmospheric measurements.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of Pneumocystis jirovecii infection and colonization in non-AIDS patients. Methods: From January 2010 to December 2017, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was detected by Grocott's methenamine silver (GMS) staining and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qPCR) in non-AIDS patients with bronchoscopic alveolar lavage at Peking University First Hospital. At the same time, Pneumocystis jirovecii was detected in the environment of the hospital. Results: Within 8 years, Pneumocystis jirovecii were detected in BALF of a total of 1 407 non-AIDS patients. GMS staining was performed in all these 1 407 cases, of which 114 (8.10%) cases were with Pneumocystis jirovecii infection and 3 (0.21%) cases with colonization. There were totally 946 non-AIDS immunocompromised patients, of which 113 (11.95%) cases were infected and 2 (0.21%) cases with colonization; there were 461 non-AIDS immunocompetent patients, of which only 1 (0.22%) case was infected and 1 (0.22%) case with colonization. GMS staining and qPCR were both performed in 196 cases, of which 36 (18.37%) cases were infected and 33 (16.84%) cases with colonization. There were totally 175 non-AIDS immunocompromised patients, of which 36 (20.57%) cases were infected and 30 (17.14%) cases with colonization; there were 21 non-AIDS immunocompetent patients, of which no one was infected and 3 (14.29%) cases with colonization. By means of GMS staining and qPCR, no Pneumocystis jiroveci were detected in the environment of Peking University First Hospital. Conclusions:Pneumocystis pneumonia is rare in immunocompetent patients, but not in non-AIDS immunocompromised patients. And colonization is rare in both of them. There may be no Pneumocystis jiroveci in the environment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explored whether adipose derived stem cells (ASCs) could inhibit the pro-liferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and whether inflammatory priming could enhance this property of ASCs. METHODS We isolated ASCs using collagenase from adipose tissue and expanded them in vitro. Cells were induced to differentiate into adipogenic and osteogenic lineages. The cells at passage 3 to passage 5 were used for the experiments. After carboxy fluoresce in succinimidyl ester (CFSE) staining, PBMCs were co-cultured with inflammatory priming ASCs. The PBMCs cultured without ASCs or with non-treated ASCs defined as control groups. Then we used flow cytometry to detect the proliferation of PBMCs. RESULTS ASCs had fibroblast-like phenotype and were spindle shaped. They were able to differentiate into cells of adipogenic and osteogenic lineages in specific induction media. ASCs had the CD expression profile consistant with the International Federation for Adipose Therapeutics statement. The percentage of parent cells in PBMC after co-cultured with ASCs increased, though there was no statistical significance. However, when co-cultured with inflammatory priming ASCs, the percentage of parent cells significantly increased (with inflammatory priming ASCs group vs. without ASCs group, 38.7%±10.0% vs. 28.4%±8.9%, P<0.05). This indicated that inflammatory priming ASCs could significantly inhibit the proliferation of PBMCs. CONCLUSION Inflammatory cytokines can enhance the immunosuppressive ability of ASCs. Our findings may help the application of ASCs in tissue repairment with better results.

Abstract
The prevalence of BRCA1/2 large genomic rearrangements (LGRs) and their underlying mechanisms have not been fully evaluated in Chinese women with breast cancer. In this study, we determined the prevalence of BRCA1/2 LGRs in 834 patients with familial breast cancer (FBC) and 660 patients with sporadic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who were negative for BRCA1/2 small-range mutations using the multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification method. We found that 20 index patients (2.4%) in the FBC group carried a BRCA1 or BRCA2 LGR, and the frequencies of BRCA1 and BRCA2 LGRs were 1.6% and 0.8%, respectively. Seven index patients (1.1%) carried a BRCA1 LGR in 660 sporadic TNBC patients, whereas no BRCA2 LGRs were found in these patients. Among the BRCA1/2 LGRs, 48.1% (13/27) were novel, and the breakpoints of the majority of the LGRs were identified. ΨBRCA1-mediated homologous recombination (HR) and Alu-mediated HR/non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) accounted for 40% and 30% of the BRCA1 LGRs, respectively. Alu-mediated HR accounted for 71.4% of the BRCA2 LGRs, and the remaining one-third was generated through Long interspersed nuclear elements (LINE)-mediated NHEJ. Our findings suggest that both FBC patients and sporadic TNBC patients should be tested for BRCA1/2 LGRs.

Abstract
AIM To study the influence of patient characteristics and unit ergonomics and human factors on the time to initiation of CPR. METHODS A single center study of children, 0 to 21 years old, admitted to an ICU who experienced cardiopulmonary arrest (CPA) requiring >1 min of chest compressions. Time of CPA was determined by analysis of continuous ECG, plethysmography, arterial blood pressure, and end-tidal CO2 (EtCO2) waveforms. Initiation of CPR was identified by the onset of cyclic artifact in the ECG waveform. Patient characteristics and unit ergonomics and human factors were examined including CPA cause, identification on the High-Risk Checklist (HRC), existing monitoring, ICU type, time of day, nursing shift change, and outcome. RESULTS The median time from CPA to initiation of CPR was 50.5 s (IQR 26.5 to 127.5) in 36 CPAs. Forty-seven percent of patients experienced time from CPA to initiation of CPR of >1 min. There was no difference in CPA cause, ICU type, time of day, or nursing shift change. CONCLUSION Nearly half of pediatric patients who experienced CPA in an ICU setting did not meet AHA guidelines for early initiation of CPR. This is an opportunity to study the recognition phase of CPA using continuous monitoring data with the aim of improving the understanding of and factors contributing to delays in initiation of CPR.

Abstract
Objective: Data from the HIV/AIDS surveillance sentinel sites was used to identify the recent HIV-1 infections and to estimate the HIV-1 incidence and epidemic trends among intravenous drug users (IDU), MSM, female sex workers and men attending the sexually transmitted disease clinics in Sichuan province. Methods: Specimens collected from IDUs, MSM, female sex workers and men attending the sexually transmitted disease clinics sentinel sites were confirmed as HIV-1 positive and tested with BED-CEIA. Annual HIV-1 prevalence and incidence rates were calculated and the incidence was adjusted by McNermar method. Results: A total number of 194 223 serum specimens were collected and HIV antibody tested, with 5 297 HIV-1 positive. 4 640 of the positives underwent BED-CEIA, with 749 identified as recent infections. During 2011-2015, HIV-1 incidence rates of the four types of population appeared as 5.16% (95%CI: 4.65-5.66), 0.22% (95%CI:0.16-0.28), 0.57%(95%CI: 0.45-0.69), 7.53% (95%CI: 6.06-9.01) and 0.44% (95%CI: 0.36-0.53) respectively. Significant differences were seen in the HIV-1 incidence rates. Conclusions: The HIV-1 incidence rates of IDUs from other sentinel sites in Sichuan province, female sex workers and men attending the sexually transmitted disease clinics appeared low, showing that the AIDS prevention and control activities worked effectively. However, the HIV-1 incidence of MSM was still at high level and even rising, suggesting that HIV-1 transmission between MSM and IDUs was possible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty is a common geriatric syndrome in old people. It remains controversial whether Mediterranean diet could prevent old people from developing into frailty. The aim of this study is to summarize the relevant studies and assess the effectiveness of adherence to Mediterranean diet on frailty in old people. METHOD A systematic search of MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was conducted to identify all relevant studies up to Oct 2017. We included studies regarding the associations between adherence to Mediterranean diet and risk of frailty among elders. A meta-analysis was performed to explore the effects of Mediterranean diet on frailty. RESULTS Six studies matched the inclusion criteria, of which five were prospective and one was cross-sectional. A total of 10,210 participants from the five prospective cohort studies were included to perform the meta-analyses. In comparison with lowest adherence to Mediterranean diet, elders with highest adherence to Mediterranean diet were significantly associated with lower risk of frailty in the future (RR= 0.56, 95% CI=0.36-0.89, p=0.015). Furthermore, the pooled estimates from four studies performed among participants in western countries (European and North American) showed that higher adherence to Mediterranean diet was associated with a 52% reduced risk of frailty (RR= 0.48, 95% CI=0.32-0.72, p<0.001). However, one study showed no association between Mediterranean diet and frailty among Asian elders (RR=1.06, 95% CI=0.83-1.36, p=0.638). CONCLUSION A higher adherence to Mediterranean diet is associated with a lower risk of frailty in old people. Meanwhile, the benefits may be more obvious among elders from western countries.

Abstract
A Tm3+ ion and Y3+ ion co-doped CaF2 crystal was grown and characterized, in which spectral and lasing performance was presented for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. Under diode end-pumping, in a continuous-wave regime, maximum output power of 453 mW was delivered under an absorption pump power of 2.5 W, corresponding to an optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of 17.9% and a slope efficiency of 21%. With a birefringent quartz plate, wavelength-tunable operation with a tunable range of more than 190 nm was realized. The results show that Tm,Y:CaF2 is a promising laser crystal operating in a spectral region ranging from 1850 nm to 2050 nm.
