Background: Published studies have reported relationships between X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) Arg399Gln polymorphism and lung cancer risk in Chinese population. However, the epidemiological results remained controversial. The objective of this study was to clarify the association of XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphism with lung cancer risk in the Chinese population. Materials and Methods: Systematic searches were performed through the database of Medline/Pubmed, Web of Science, Embase, CNKI and WanFang Medical Online. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were calculated to estimate the strength of the association. Results: Overall, we observed an increased lung cancer risk among subjects carrying XRCC1 codon 399 Gln/Gln genotype (OR=1.36, 95%CI: 1.09-1.71) in the Chinese population on the basis of 19 studies with 5,416 cases and 5,782 controls. We did not observe any association between XRCC1 codon 399 Arg/Gln and Arg/Gln+Gln/Gln polymorphisms and lung cancer risk (OR=1.00, 95%CI: 0.92-1.08 and OR=1.05, 95%CI: 0.97-1.13, respectively). Limiting the analysis to studies with controls in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE), we observed an increased lung cancer risk among subjects carrying XRCC1 codon 399 Gln/Gln genotype (OR=1.18, 95%CI: 1.01-1.38). When stratified by source of control, we observed an increased lung cancer risk among subjects carrying XRCC1 codon 399 Arg/Gln+Gln/Gln genotype on the basis of hospitalized patient-based controls (OR=1.21, 95%CI: 1.04-1.42) and among subjects carrying XRCC1 codon 399 Gln/Gln genotype on the basis of healthy subject-based controls (OR=1.22, 95%CI: 1.04-1.43). Conclusions: Our findings indicated that certain XRCC1 Arg399Gln variants might affect the susceptibility of lung cancer in Chinese population. Larger sample size studies are required to confirm our findings.

Correlation between the Position of the Pituitary Stalk as Determined by Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Its Location as Determined at the Time of Surgical Resection of Pituitary Adenomas

Wang, Fu-yu,Wang, Peng,Yang, Chen-xuan,Zhou, Tao,Jiang, Jin-li,Meng, Xiang-hui The Korean Neurosurgical Society 2020 Journal of Korean neurosurgical society Vol.63 No.4

Objective : An important factor during pituitary adenoma surgery is to preserve pituitary stalk (PS) as this plays a role in reduction of the risk of postoperative diabetes insipidus. The hypothalamic-hypophyseal tract (HHT) projects through the PS to the posterior pituitary gland. To reconstruct white matter fiber pathways, methods like diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) tractography have been widely used. In this report we attempted to predict the position of PS using DTI tractography and to assess its intraoperative correlation during surgery of pituitary adenomas. Methods : DTI tractography was used to tract the HHT in nine patients before craniotomy for pituitary adenomas. The DTI location of the HHT was compared with the PS position identified at the time of surgery. DTI fiber tracking was carried out in nine patients prior to the planned craniotomy for pituitary adenomas. In one patient, the PS could not be identified during the surgery. In the other eight patients, a comparison was made between the location of the HHT identified by DTI and the position of the PS visualized at the time of surgery. Results : The position of the HHT identified by DTI showed consistency with the intraoperative position of the PS in seven patients (88.9% concordance). Conclusion : This study shows that DTI can identify the position of the HHT and thus the position of the PS with a high degree of reliability.

Purpose: Genetic factors play an indispensable role in the pathogenesis of lifelong premature ejaculation (LPE). The suscep-tibility genes/SNPs that have been discovered are very limited and can only explain part of the genetic effects of LPE. There-fore, discovering more genetic polymorphisms associated with the occurrence and development of LPE will help reveal the pathogenesis of LPE. Materials Materials and and Methods:Methods: We conducted a genome-wide association study of LPE in 486 Chinese male Han people (cases and controls). We used Gene Titan multi-channel instrument and Axiom Analysis Suite 6.0 software for genotyping. Imputation was performed by IMPUTE2 software and the 1000 Genomes Project (Phase3) was used as reference for haplotype. Finally, logistic regression analysis was performed on all loci that passed the quality control. The odds ratio and 95% confidence in-terval were calculated to determine the association between each SNPs and Chinese male Han population LPE risk. Results:Results: The results showed that a total of 33 genetic variants in 13 genes (LACTBL1 , SSBP3 , ACOT11 , LINC02486 , TMEM154, LINC01098, NONE, HCG27, HLA-C, TNFSF8, TNC, FAM53B, SULF2) have a suggestively significant genome-wide association with LPE risk (p<5×10-6). Conclusions:Conclusions: This study is the first to conduct a GWAS on LPE in Chinese male Han population 33 genetic polymorphisms have a suggestive genome-wide association with LPE risk. This study have provided data supplement for the genetic loci of LPE risk, and laid a scientific foundation for the pathogenesis and the targeted therapy of LPE.

Research on the vibration characteristics of the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is hindered by the harmonic characteristics of the unbalanced magnetic pull force when air-gap eccentricity is neglected. Thus, the effects of both air-gap eccentricity and mass eccentricity on the rotor vibration have not yet been fully elucidated. To address this, a unified expression for the unbalanced magnetic pull force of the motor was derived under various pole pairs and air-gap eccentricities. The distribution of the radial electromagnetic force under different eccentricities is revealed. An electromagnetic simulation model of the fan motor was established for three eccentric cases and the effect of the unbalanced magnetic pull distribution and harmonic frequency characteristics on the rotor were analyzed. Furthermore, the influence of the gyroscopic effects on the modal frequency of the rotor structure was studied. The harmonic response of the rotor shaft system was first established using multi-physical field coupling, then the vibration amplitude-frequency laws of the rotor-shaft system under the influence of air-gap eccentricity and mass eccentricity were investigated. To reduce the vibration of the unbalanced PMSM rotor-shaft system, a multi-objective optimization was performed using the genetic algorithm in ANSYS Workbench.

To reduce the vibration of the unbalanced PMSM rotor-shaft system, a multi-objective optimization was performed using the genetic algorithm in ANSYS Workbench. The optimization results show that when the motor rotor core is shifted 2 mm in the positive X direction and the distance between the double-row bearing and rotor core is 7 mm, the vibration acceleration amplitude is reduced by 54.9 % compared with the original model.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNAs, mediate gene expression by either cleaving target mRNAs or inhibiting their translation. They have key roles in the tumorigenesis of several cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical significance of miR-638 in the evaluation of NSCLC patient prognosis in response to chemotherapy. First, we detected miR-638 expression levels in vitro in the culture supernatants of the NSCLC cell line SPC-A1 treated with cisplatin, as well as the apoptosis rates of SPC-A1. Second, serum miR-638 expression levels were detected in vivo by using nude mice xenograft models bearing SPC-A1 with and without cisplatin treatment. In the clinic, the serum miR-638 levels of 200 cases of NSCLC patients before and after chemotherapy were determined by quantitative real-time PCR, and the associations of clinicopathological features with miR-638 expression patterns after chemotherapy were analyzed. Our data helped in demonstrating that cisplatin induced apoptosis of the SPC-A1 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner accompanied by increased miR-638 expression levels in the culture supernatants. In vivo data further revealed that cisplatin induced miR-638 upregulation in the serum derived from mice xenograft models, and in NSCLC patient sera, miR-638 expression patterns after chemotherapy significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis. Moreover, survival analyses revealed that patients who had increased miR-638 levels after chemotherapy showed significantly longer survival time than those who had decreased miR-638 levels. Our findings suggest that serum miR-638 levels are associated with the survival of NSCLC patients and may be considered a potential independent predictor for NSCLC prognosis.

Study of the Flow Behavior and Defect Formation in Forming of Axisymmetrically Flanged and Multi-Scaled Parts

Ji Lai Wang,Ming Wang Fu,Junxi Yu,Xing Wang,Wenbin Yang 한국정밀공학회 2016 International Journal of Precision Engineering and Vol.17 No.10

In microforming, the quality of microparts is one of the most critical issues. Folding caused by the abnormal material flow is one of the most common flow-induced defects in macroforming process. The identified formation mechanism of flow-induced defects in macro-forming process could be affected by the so-called size effects when the part dimension is scaled down to micro scale. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the influence of size effects on the material plastic flow and deformation behavior in multiscaled deformation scenarios. To explore the formation mechanism of flow-induced defects, FE simulation is used to simulate the forming process. On the other hand, the multi-scaled forming was designed. To study the relationship of the flow-induced defect and sizes effects, forming of the axisymmetric parts with flanged features and different scales was conducted. The microstructure and plastic flow behavior of the deformed parts are also revealed. Based on the experimental and FEM simulation results, the formation of folding defects is mainly affected by the geometries and the sizes of the deformed flanged parts instead of grain sizes. In the cases by using material with coarse grains, the folding defect can be significantly reduced.

New method for rapidly estimating population densities of the concealed wood‐borer Monochamus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in the field

To rapidly estimate pine sawyer, Monochamus alternatus Hope, population densities in forests, the vertical distributions of M. alternatus oviposition sites and larvae on infested Masson pines (Pinus massoniana Lamb.) were studied. Results showed that the number of oviposition sites on sections of trunks between 0 and 2 m above ground was significantly greater than on sections of trunk above 2 m, and the vertical distribution had a significant logarithmic relationship with trunk height. The larval number of M. alternatus on dead infested trees had a significant difference among heights of trunks. Sections on trunks at 2–4 m usually contained the largest number of M. alternatus larvae, while the number of larvae on trunks above 10 m declined significantly, as well as in the 1 m section of trunk at the base. The vertical distribution of M. alternatus larvae on dead infested pines showed a distinct parabolic relationship with trunk height. The number of oviposition sites of M. alternatus on infested Masson pine trunks revealed a significant exponential relationship with the diameter at breast height (DBH) of trees. A significant positive linear relationship also was observed between M. alternatus larval number and DBH on the host pine trees, as well as between the numbers of larvae and oviposition sites on an individual tree. The total number of larvae in an infested tree could be calculated easily using an established equation, through counting the number of oviposition sites at 3–4 m of trunk aboveground. This study developed a practical method for rapid estimation of M. alternatus populations.
