    Abstract Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics and explore the risk factors of Kawasaki disease(KD) with deep neck space involvement(DNSI). Methods This study was a case-control study. We reviewed KD complicated with DNSI patients in Department of Rheumatology and Immunology of Shenzhen Children's Hospital from January 2018 to December 2020 as DNSI group. Meanwhile, children with KD withoutDNSI during this period were selected by systematic sampling at a ratio of 1∶7 as control group. The clinical characteristics were analyzed by Chi-square test and the Mann-Whitney test and risk factors of KD complicated with DNSI were analyzed by Logistic regression. Results A total of 38 children in the DNSI group who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and 288 children in the control group were selected. In the DNSI group, 38 children (100%) had fever and cervical lymph node enlargement, and the cervical lymph node enlargement occurred within 5 days of onset; 30 patients (78.9%) had cervical lymph node pain and 25 patients suffered (65.8%) limited movement of neck. Compared with the control group, the clinical data of children in the DNSI group showed a variety of significant changes. In terms of clinical characteristics, the age of onset in the DNSI group was older, the hospital stay was longer and the proportions of cervical lymphadenopathy, cervical lymph node pain, limited neck movement and upper airway obstruction were all higher (all P < 0.05); in terms of laboratory tests, the neutrophil count and its percentage, C-reactive protein (CRP), ferritin (FER), total bile acid, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, and globulin levels all increased, while platelet and lymphocyte counts and their percentages all decreased(all P < 0.05); in terms of coronary artery damage and treatment effect, the Kobayashi score, Sano score and the proportion of hormone therapy in the DNSI group all increased (all P < 0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that neck lymph node pain (OR=5.523, 95% CI: ...

    Abstract Cloud top height (CTH) plays an important role in the Earth's radiation budget and thus in climate change. However, accurate CTH retrieval based on satellite data remains a challenge when using currently widespread methods based on passive remote sensing satellite data, particularly over the Arctic Ocean. It is well known that using geometric correlation between CTH and cloud-shadow distance along the normal direction of sunlight, cloud-edge top height (CETH) can be determined. However, this cloud-shadow method (CSM) exhibited larger CTH errors due to low-resolution weather satellite data of the past. The aim of the paper is to analyze the effect of higher-resolution images (MODIS with 250-m resolution) on CSM accuracy. We present a method in which CETH is first retrieved using the MODIS data, and to calculate CTH in the center of cloud region by combining the calculated CETH and cloud top brightness temperature using an environmental temperature lapse rate method. We validated 14 cases over the Arctic Ocean by the CALIPSO (Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations) CTH lidar product and another two cases by radiosonde data. CSM revealed better performance (mean difference is 0.45 km and standard deviation is 0.92 km) compared to the operational MODIS CTH product (mean difference is −0.78 km and standard deviation is 1.78 km), when validated by the CALIPSO product. When validated by sounding data, CSM also performed better than the MODIS CTH product: the CSM CTH errors are 0.41 and 0.52 km in two sounding cases, while the corresponding MODIS CTH errors are −1.10 and 1.07 km. The CSM technique especially showed better performance for double-deck cloud systems. We conclude that further improvements in CTH accuracy based on CSM can be achieved by mainly using higher-resolution satellite imagery.

    Abstract Objective: To study the molecular mechanism of PI3K-Ⅲ like functional domain inducing programmed cell death of leukemia cell line K562.
    Methods: The purified PI3K-Ⅲ like functional domain protein was obtained by Pichia pastoris expression system. MTT assay and colony-forming assay were used to detect the effects of PI3K-Ⅲ like functional domain protein on K562 cell proliferation. The effects of PI3K-Ⅲ like functional domain protein on apoptosis and cell cycle of on K562 cells were detected by flow cytometry. The ultrastructural changes were detected by transmission electron microscopy. The expression of caspase-3 was detected by ELISA. The protein expressions of ATG4B, Beclin-1, Bcl-2 and LC3-II were evaluated by Western blot.
    Results: PI3K-Ⅲ like functional domain protein could inhibit the proliferation and clony formation of K562 cells, which was significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). In the experimental group, apoptosis and autophagosome were shown in K562 cells. The proportion of cells in G
    Conclusion: PI3K-Ⅲ like functional polypeptide could induce programmed cell death of leukemia cell K562. Beclin-1/Bcl-2 and caspase pathway may be involved in this way, which suggesting meant autophagy and apoptosis may work together at the same time.

    Abstract Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive phospholipid that plays a crucial role in cardiovascular diseases. Here, we question whether LPA contributes to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by acting on transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) in spinal cord. By ligating the left coronary artery to establish an in vivo I/R mouse model, we observed a 1.57-fold increase in LPA level in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The I/R-elevated CSF LPA levels were reduced by HA130, an LPA synthesis inhibitor, compared to vehicle treatment (4.74 ± 0.34 vs. 6.46 ± 0.94 μg/mL, p = 0.0014). Myocardial infarct size was reduced by HA130 treatment compared to the vehicle group (26 ± 8% vs. 46 ± 8%, p = 0.0001). To block the interaction of LPA with TRPV1 at the K710 site, we generated a K710N knock-in mouse model. The TRPV1

    Abstract Iliac vein compression syndrome (IVCS) or May-Thurner syndrome occurs predominantly in young to middle-aged women. Here we reported a case of IVCS in a 5-year-old boy. The child was admitted to our vasculocardiology department with left lower extremity that had been swollen for 1 month. Blood tests revealed coagulation routine and platelets in the normal ranges. Computer tomography angiography (CTA) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed the left common iliac vein had become narrow before it entered the right common iliac vein. To further clarify, we performed angiography, which clearly showed the stenosis and the blood return of the left common iliac vein. So IVCS was diagnosed. What is more, we found the aorta descended to the right of the spine, and this may be the reason for the apparent compression of the left common iliac vein. Given the young age and mild symptoms of the child, the treatment was conservative mainly including elevation of the affected limb, wearing medical elastic socks, and short-term oral aspirin for anticoagulation. Meanwhile, the boy is being followed up closely. If the swelling of the left lower extremity significantly increases, stent placement may need to be considered in the future.

    Abstract The rapid development of nanomaterials has led to the unavoidable leakage and release of nanoparticles (NPs) into soil and the underlying groundwater. It is possible for chars and phosphate introduced into soil to improve crop soil properties by improving contact with NPs. In this study, the influences of hydrochar and/or phosphate on the anatase nTiO2 transport behaviors were investigated under different conditions. The breakthrough curves (BTCs) and retention profiles were obtained by the saturated sand column experiments. The additional analysis of zeta potentials, sedimentation kinetics, Raman mapping, and the two-site kinetic attachment model (TSKAM) was conducted to explore the possible underlying mechanisms. The simultaneous presence of phosphate and hydrochar acted in a synergetic fashion to enhance the transport of nTiO2 in a sand medium compared to the facilitated effect of single phosphate or hydrochar. The higher levels of hydrochar induce the more nTiO2 in the high IC solution passing through the saturated sand columns in the co-presence of phosphate. It was attributed to the competitive adsorption of hydrochar with nTiO2 to the sand site and the phosphate adsorption on nTiO2 occurred simultaneously through the sand columns. The fitting results of BTCs using TSKAM showed that the value of k2 for nTiO2 (the irreversible attachment coefficient at site 2) was smaller than that of k1d/k1 (the first-order reversible detachment and attachment coefficient at site 1, respectively), suggesting irreversible retention of anatase nTiO2 at site 1. The value of k1d/k1 could be better used to explain the retention of nTiO2 with combined phosphate and hydrochar. This study provides insight into the implications of phosphate and/or hydrochar for nTiO2 transport in crop soil environments. Graphical abstract ᅟ
