Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of depression or anxiety in patient with multiple myeloma (MM) in China during maintenance treatment and its associated influencing factors.MethodsPatients with MM (n = 160) received maintenance therapy, and control subjects (without MM, n = 160) matched on age, sex, and BMI were recruited. Patients completed questionnaires, including the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item Scale (GAD-7), and the Verbal Pain Rating Scale (VPRS). Data on the Clinical characteristics, biochemical indicators of de novo MM were from the database of the Hematology Department of Beijing Chao-yang Hospital. Multiple linear regression model analysis was used to compare the differences in PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scale scores between the control group and the case group after correction for relevant variables. Multiple logistic regression models were subsequently used to analyze the correlation between the presence or absence of anxiety and depression and clinical indicators in the MM groups.ResultsDepression symptoms was present in 33.33% and anxiety symptoms in 24.68% of first-episode MM in the maintenance phase of treatment, and depression symptoms in the index-corrected MM group was significantly different from that in the control group (t = 2.54, P < 0.05). Analyses of multiple logistic regressions: biochemical indicators and clinical typing were not significantly associated with anxiety and depression. Compared to the pain rating 1, the risk of depressive mood was greater in the case group with the pain rating 2 (OR = 2.38) and the pain rating ≥ 3 (OR = 4.32). The risk of anxiety was greater in the case group with the pain rating ≥ 3 than the pain rating 1 (OR = 2.89).ConclusionDespite being in clinical remission, depressive mood problems in patients with MM remain prominent. Clinicians should enhance mood assessment and management in patients with concomitant pain.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the reported characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in children aged 0-14 years in four provinces (municipalities), Beijing, Hubei, Chongqing and Sichuan, in China, and provide evidence for the prevention and control of pulmonary TB in children. Methods: The incidence data of childhood pulmonary TB were collected from notifiable disease and tuberculosis management information system of Chinese information system for disease control and prevention,and descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the medical care seeking flow, characteristics and management inclusion of pulmonary TB cases in children. Statistical analysis and data visualization were conducted with softwares Excel 2015, R 4.1.2 and Echart 4.7.0. Results: A total of 6 811 pulmonary TB cases in children were reported in the four provinces during 2019-2021, in which 4 741 (69.6%) were clinically diagnosed and 2 070 (30.4%) were laboratory confirmed. A total of 526 medical institutions reported TB cases in children, including 356 general hospitals (67.7%, 356/526) reporting 4 706 cases, 11 infectious disease hospitals (2.1%, 11/526) reporting 836 cases and 5 children's hospitals (1.0%, 5/526) reporting 542 cases. A total of 6 249 (91.7%) local cases and 562 (8.3%) non-local cases were reported. The reported local incidence rates of TB from 2019-2021 were 6.20/100 000, 7.10/100 000 and 7.20/100 000, respectively, showing an increase trend year by year. The sex ratio of the cases were 0.98∶1(3 373∶3 438). The cases were mainly distributed in age group 10-14 years (4 887 cases, 71.8%). The cases were mainly students (5 167 cases, 75.9%). The management inclusion rates of the local cases and non-local cases were 20.60% and 2.67%, respectively. Conclusions: The main medical institutions reporting pulmonary TB cases in children were children's hospitals, infectious disease hospitals and TB special hospitals, the incidence of pulmonary TB in children in Sichuan was higher. In 2020, the inter-provincial medical seeking behavior of the pulmonary TB cases decreased significantly. The incidence rate in boys was lower than that in girls, and children aged 10-14 years were the population with high incidence of pulmonary TB. The management inclusion rate in non-local cases was lower than that in local cases.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction/Objective
The US Multi-Society Task Force on colorectal cancer updated recommendations in 2020 for follow-up after colonoscopy. This emphasized differential surveillance intervals based on the number of polyps removed. We determined how often we accurately counted the number of polyps and what submission practices allowed accurate quantification.
Methods/Case Report
We reviewed consecutive colorectal polyp cases from 10/1 to 12/31, 2019, excluding inflammatory polyps in inflammatory bowel disease. Pathology reports were reviewed to determine if the polyp number could be determined from history, gross description, and histologic findings. When numbers did not match or were unclear, endoscopy reports and glass slides were reviewed.
Results (if a Case Study enter NA)
601 cases with 1294 specimens were identified. We accurately determined polyp number in 1235 (95.4%) specimens. 1072 (82.8%) specimens were submitted as single polyp per container (SP), while 222 (17.2%) were submitted with > 1 polyp per container (MP). Polyp number was not quantifiable in 58 (26.1%) MP due to 11 labeled as “multiple polyps” in requisition/endoscopy reports and 47 submitted with polyp number different from number of tissue portions seen grossly and microscopically. In 1 (0.1%) SP, polyp number was unclear because separate portions of tissue contained two different diagnoses. Rate of accurate polyp count is significantly different between SP and MP (p<0.01) by Fisher exact test.
Conclusion
We accurately determined number of polyps in most specimens (95.4%) because our gastroenterologists usually submit SP. In MP, polyp count in 26.1% of specimens was unquantifiable. This could lead to uncertainty in surveillance follow-up intervals. Therefore, we recommend submitting one polyp per container.

Abstract
A new neutral particle analyzer (NPA) diagnostic based on single crystal chemical vapor deposition (sCVD) diamond detector that provides measurements of fast ions has been designed and installed on HL-2A tokamak. Diamond detectors have been applied in some magnetic confinement fusion devices due to their outstanding properties of compact size and radiation hardness. This DNPA can measure energies above 13.4 keV. The line of sight (LOS) of the DNPA intersects with the NBI No. 2 with a tangency radius of 154.8 cm. Due to the pitch angle defined by the LOS and geometry of the diagnostic, the DNPA is mainly sensitive to trapped ions. To interpret the energy spectrum and verify the feasibility of the design of the DNPA, a Monte Carlo code called FIDASIM, which is a synthetic diagnostic code that simulates fast ion D-alpha and NPA signals, is applied to model the neutral flux reaching the detector. The results show that the flux is mainly contributed by the low energy fast ions (E < 10 keV) and it is mainly coming from the active components, the passive signal is dominant in the high energy region (E > 15 keV). The modeling features the ability to distinguish between active and passive signals, and the simulated strong passive signals are suggested to come from charge exchange between cold neutrals and fast ions around the plasma edge. In addition, despite the large ratio of halo neutrals, essentially it has a limited contribution to the energy spectrum.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the correlation of CCBE1 expression in adjacent tissues of tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) with pericancerous lymphatic vessel proliferation, cervical lymph node metastasis and survival outcomes of the patients. METHODS Lymphatic vessel density was quantified in pericancerous tissue sections of 44 cases of cT1-2N0 TSCC using D2-40 as the lymphatic vessel endothelial marker for calibration and counting of the lymphatic vessels. Of these 44 cases, 22 showed a relatively low lymphatic vessel density (group A) and the other 22 had a high lymphatic vessel density (group B), and the expression levels of CCBE1 in the adjacent tissues determined using immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence assay and Western blotting were compared between the two groups. The expression level of CCBE1 was also measured in another 90 patients with TSCC using immunohistochemistry, and all the patients were followed up for their survival outcomes. RESULTS Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting showed a significantly lower rate of high CCBE1 expression in group A than in group B (P < 0.05). Immunofluorescence assay showed co-localization of CCBE1 and D2-40 in the adjacent tissues of TSCC. In the 90 TSCC patients with complete follow-up data, a high expression of CCBE1 was found to correlate with lymph node metastasis and a poor 5-year survival outcomes of the patients (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION A high expression of CCBE1 in the adjacent tissues of TSCC is closely related with pericancerous lymphatic vessel proliferation, cervical lymph node metastasis and a poor 5-year survival of the patients, suggesting the value of CCBE1 as a potential prognostic predictor for TSCC.

Abstract
Disc displacement without reduction is a common disorder of the temporomandibular joint, causing clinical symptoms and sometimes condylar degeneration. In some cases, bone regeneration is detected following disc-repositioning procedures. Until now, however, systems-wide knowledge of the protein levels for condylar outcome with disc position is still lacking. Here, we performed comprehensive expression profiling of synovial fluid from 109 patients with disc displacement without reduction using high-resolution data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry and characterized differences in 1,714 proteins. Based on magnetic resonance imaging, samples were divided into groups with versus without condylar absorption and subgroups with versus without new bone. For the proteomic analysis, 32 proteins in groups presented with statistical significance (>2-fold, P < 0.05). Pathways such as response to inorganic substances, blood coagulation, and estrogen signaling were significantly expressed in the group with bone absorption as compared with pathways such as regulation of body fluid levels, vesicle-mediated transport, and focal adhesion, which were enriched in the group without bone absorption. In subgroup analysis, 45 proteins of significant importance (>2-fold, P < 0.05) were associated with pathways including would healing, glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, and amino acid metabolism. Combined with clinical examination, molecules such as acetyl-CoA carboxylase beta (ACACB) and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFB1) were related to features such as visual analog scale and maximum interincisal opening (P < 0.05). In addition, 7 proteins were examined by Western blotting, including progesterone immunomodulatory binding factor 1 (PIBF1), histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG), and protein kinase C and casein kinase substrate in neurons 2 (PACSIN2). In conclusion, this study provides the first proteome analysis of condylar absorption at disc displacement without reduction and postoperative new bone formation after disc reposition. Integrated with clinical data, this analysis provides an important insight into the proteomics of condylar modification at disc position.

Abstract
Objective: To study the clinicopathological features of chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection (CAEBV) in the digestive tract and to discuss its differential diagnosis. Methods: The clinical data of 3 cases of CAEBV in the digestive tract diagnosed in Jiangsu Province Hospital (the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University), Nanjing, China from December 2018 to August 2020 were collected. Three cases of CAEBV were evaluated using histology, immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. The related literature was reviewed. Results: Three patients were all males, aged 33, 32 and 31 years, respectively. All patients had a history of intermittent fever and repeated diarrhea for the past years with persistent increase in EB viral load (DNA copies) in peripheral blood. Endoscopically, intestinal tract was involved in all cases with ulcers, and esophagus was involved concurrently in 1 case showing nodular lesions. Microscopically, there were moderate polymorphic inflammatory infiltrate with lymphoid component displaying no or mild atypia in all cases and deep fissuring ulcers in one case (case 3). All tumor cells were positive for CD3 and TIA-1, and negative for CD56 and CD5. Cases 1 and 2 showed CD4-/CD8-, whereas case 3 displayed CD4+/CD8-. In situ hybridization for Epstein-Barr virus-encoded RNA was positive in all 3 cases. Follow-up data showed that cases 1 and 2 were free of disease progression at the end of follow-up (16 months and 17 months, respectively). However, case 3 progressed to extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma 22 months after the initial diagnosis. Conclusions: CAEBV of the digestive tract is a rare lymphoid proliferative disorder with potential transformation to extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma. It is a great mimicker of inflammatory bowel disease, especially in small biopsy specimens. It is important to integrate clinicopathological, radiological and laboratory data to avoid misdiagnosis.

Abstract
Novel brominated flame retardants (NBFRs) have been of great concern in the past few years due to their ubiquity in the environment and potential bioconcentration characteristics. This study takes Xilingol grassland in Inner Mongolia as the research area to analyze the pollution characteristics of NBFRs (pTBX, HBB, PBT, PBBz, and PBEB) in the grassland food chain. pTBX was more likely to be biomagnified in the food chain of amphibians, reptiles, and birds, whereas PBT and HBB were more likely to be biomagnified in the food chain of mammals. This may be because these animals have different diets and metabolic patterns. According to the concentration distribution of NBFRs in sheep organs and tissues, PBT, HBB, and PBBz easy bioaccumulated in sheep. The biomagnification effect of sheep adipose tissue and internal organs on NBFRs was inconsistent, so the biomagnification of chemicals in organisms cannot be determined only by the biomagnification of adipose tissue.

Abstract
Polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) concentrations in various tissues and organs of grassland sheep from Inner Mongolia, China, were determined. The abilities of PBDEs binding to ovine serum albumin (OSA) and Cytochrome P450 enzyme (CYP3A24) were assessed by fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular docking simulations. The PBDE concentrations in the sheep tissue and organ samples were 33.4-167 pg/g dw. The distribution of PBDEs in sheep organs and tissues is affected not only by the function of organs and tissues, but also by the characteristics of PBDEs. Adipose tissue tends to bioaccumulate more-brominated BDEs (BDE-154, -153, and -183), but muscle tissues and visceral organs mainly bioaccumulate less-brominated BDEs. The distribution of PBDEs in visceral organs is mainly affected by the transport of ovine serum albumin (OSA) and the metabolism of CYP3A24 enzyme. The distribution of PBDEs in adipose tissue and brain is mainly affected by their logKOW.

Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy provides an effective salvage treatment for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients. End-stage RRMM with plasma cell leukemia (PCL) transformation is highly aggressive and resistant to conventional therapy. There is an urgent need for new therapeutics and CAR-T therapy may play an important role. We report a case of PCL secondary to RRMM successfully treated with CAR-T cell therapy targeting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA). A woman was diagnosed as having MM 4 years ago and progressed to secondary PCL (sPCL) of five prior lines of treatment including proteasome inhibitors, an immunomodulatory agent, cytotoxic drugs, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody. After receiving a BCMA CAR-T therapy, she achieved a stringent complete response that lasted 9 months. Then, the patient irregularly took venetoclax 10 mg per day due to a slightly higher λ FLC concentration, which did not meet the criteria for progression. She maintained a complete response for the following 7 months. In conclusion, BCMA CAR-T therapy may be a promising therapeutic approach in PCL patients. More studies are needed to evaluate the benefit of anti-BCMA CAR-T therapy in PCL patients. Clinical Trial Registration:www.chictr.org.cn, ChiCTR1900024388, Registered 9 July 2019.

Abstract
The early rehabilitation is one of the important measures for the prevention or management of the post-intensive care syndrome. The nutritional intervention, as another essential supportive treatment for critically ill patients, is closely linked to rehabilitation management. However, the nutritional management in relation to early rehabilitation for critically ill patients has been rarely studied up to now. This paper sorts out the link between nutrition support and early rehabilitation for patients with critical illness, and looks forward to providing evidence for the combination of critical care rehabilitation management and nutritional intervention.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in Fengtai District from 2011 to 2021. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted, the data of PTB patients in Fengtai District from 2011 to 2021 were collected in Chinese disease prevention and Control Information System, which included etiological classification, gender, age, occupation, onset time, demographic information etc. the epidemiological characteristics of reported PTB patients was analysis. Results: A total of 10 342 cases of PTB were reported from 2011 to 2021 in Fengtai District, with an average annual reported incidence rate of 42.87/ 100 000. The incidence rate was the highest in 2012(75.89/100 000), and significantly declined from 2013, which declined to 29.70/100 000 in 2017. It showed a slow rise from 2018 to 2021. The difference was statistically significant (χ2=1 471.77,P<0.001).There were 2 975 cases of etiologic positive PTB from 2011 to 2021, and 76 cases of Rifampicin-resistant PTB from 2017 to 2021. The ratio of male cases to female was 1.75, the average annual incidence rate of male (53.94/100 000) was higher, than female(31.57/100 000).(χ2=704.01,P<0.001). Among all age groups, 25-29 years group, 20-24 years group and 30-34 years group had the highest proportion, which were 1 506 cases (14.56%) , 1 292 cases (12.49%) and 1 024 cases (9.90%) respectively. The average annual incidence rate was the lowest in the group less than 10 years old (1.43/100 000), and the highest in the group 85 years old and over (195.20/100 000), the difference was statistically significant(χ2=3164.24, P<0.001). The top occupations from high to low were housework and unemployment (2 917 cases, 28.21%), retirees (2 308 cases, 22.32%), workers (1 047 cases, 10.12%), cadres and staff (950 cases, 9.19%), farmers (860 cases, 8.32%), business services (698 cases, 6.75%), teachers and students (455 cases, 4.40%). Conclusion: From 2011 to 2021, the incidence rate of PTB was decreased from 2012 to 2017, and slowly increased lately in Fengtai District. The epidemiological characteristics of PTB vary in different age and gender.

Effects of weight loss on bone turnover, inflammatory cytokines, and adipokines in Chinese overweight and obese adults. J Endocrinol Invest 2022; 45:1757-1767. [PMID: 35635643 PMCID: PMC9360139 DOI: 10.1007/s40618-022-01815-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/03/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Plenty of studies have examined the long term effect of weight loss on bone mineral density. This study aimed to explore the effects of 10% weight loss on early changes in bone metabolism as well as the possible influencing factors. METHODS Overweight and obese outpatients (BMI > 24.0 kg/m2) were recruited from the nutrition clinic and followed a calorie-restricted, high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet program. Dietary intake, body composition, serum procollagen type I N-propeptide (PINP), β-Crosslaps, PTH, 25(OH) VitD, a series of inflammatory cytokines and adipokines were measured for the participants before starting to lose weight and after 10% weight loss (NCT04207879). RESULTS A total of 75 participants were enrolled and 37 participants achieved a weight loss of at least 10%. It was found that PINP decreased (p = 0.000) and the β-Crosslaps increased (p = 0.035) in female participants. Decreases in PTH (p = 0.001), serum IL-2 (p = 0.013), leptin (p = 0.001) and increases in 25(OH) VitD (p = 0.001), serum ghrelin (p = 0.033) were found in 37 participants after 10% of their weight had been lost. Change in PINP was detected to be significantly associated with change in lean body mass (r = 0.418, p = 0.012) and change in serum ghrelin(r = - 0.374, p = 0.023). CONCLUSIONS Bone formation was suppressed and bone absorption was increased in female subjects after a 10% weight loss. Bone turnover was found to be associated with lean body mass and affected by the circulating ghrelin level.
