Abstract:
The HIV care continuum from diagnosis of HIV infection, to the initiation of antiretroviral therapy, and to the achievement of viral suppression is called HIV care cascade. The number of HIV infected individuals shrinks along each steps of the HIV care continuum. Maximizing the proportion of HIV infected individuals to achieve viral suppression is an effective strategy to control the HIV epidemic. We reviewed progress of HIV care cascade in international and domestic settings, and provide our recommendations for achieving the 90-90-90 targets in China by 2020.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between F protein and the methylation of adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Methods Blood samples collected from chronic HCV patients (CHP) were divided into F-Ab(+) CHP group and F-Ab(-) CHP group, blood samples from healthy persons were used as control. Isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were stimulated by Core protein and F protein for 72 hours, and then cell DNA was etracted to detect the methylation level of APC gene. Results The methylation level of APC gene in three groups was significantly different (F=185.185,P<0.001). The methylation level of APC gene in F-Ab(+) CHP group was significantly higher than that in F-Ab (-) CHP group, the healthy control group was the lowest (all P<0.05). There was significant difference in methylation level of APC gene by Core/F protein stimulated in vitro in all subgroups(all P<0.05). The methylation of APC gene in cells stimulated by Core protein and F protein was higher than that in cells stimulated by F protein, which was higher than that in cells stimulated by Core protein. Conclusions HCV F protein can affect the methylation of APC gene in chronic HCV infection.

Abstract:
Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of the spontaneous reactivation of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) carriers in the community, and to provide a scientific management for the chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) carriers. Methods A serum epidemiological cross-sectional study was conducted in September 2010, and the HBsAg carriers cohort was established. Then the cohort was followed in 2012 and 2014 to clarify the HBV reactivation rate and epidemiological characteristics. Results After the follow-up, there were 72 carriers developed to HBV reactivation of 852 HBsAg carriers. The spontaneous reactivation incidence was 2 746.8 per one hundred thousand person-years. Different reactivation rate were observed in different gender (χ²=3.901,P=0.048). The male accumulated reactivation rate was 10.39%, which was higher than that of the female (6.62%). Meanwhile, significant differences were also found in different age groups (χ²=6.524,P=0.038). The reactivation rate of 46-59 age group was 11.95%. Besides, when the deoxyribonucleic acid of hepatitis B virus (HBV DNA) level was high, the reactivation incidence was rising (χ²=10.404,P=0.006). Especially in the HBV DNA level >1×10⁵ IU/ml group, the reactivation rate could reach 14.36%. Conclusions The HBsAg carriers may develop to HBV reactivation among community. Male, middle-age period and high baseline HBV DNA load are important risk factors for hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation. Therefore, we should enhance the management of HBV carriers, conduct regular follow-up to monitor the condition change, and choose the reasonable time to initiate treatment.

Abstract:
Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and temporal-spatial clustering of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Guangxi from 2008 to 2015, and to provide evidence for the prevention and control of the disease. Methods Surveillance information of HFMD at the county level was collected from Chinese National Notifiable Infectious Disease Report System. The epidemiological characteristics were described using Excel 2010. SaTScan 9.4.2 was used to detect the potential temporal-spatial clusters. By setting different population percentages as the maximum spatial cluster sizes in the analysis, multiple models were assessed to select the optimal one. Results From 2008 to 2015, all cities in Guangxi had reported HFMD cases, a total of 1 360 857 cases were reported with an annual incidence of 359.61 per 10 000. The main peak incidence was observed from April to July, followed by a second peak from September to November. Incidence rate of male was higher than female, children aged 0-5 years accounted for 92.28% of the total cases. The effect of setting the population percentage as the maximum spatial cluster size varied in different models, among which 10% of the population at risk was the best mode. The counties of Nanning and Liuzhou were the main grade-I gathering areas and grade-Ⅱ gathering areas, respectively. The gathering time were mainly detected from March to July. Conclusions Incidence of HFMD was still high in Guangxi. HFMD had obvious aggregation in space and time. We should strengthen prevention and control of HFMD in Nanning and Liuzhou during gathering time.

Abstract:
Objective To analyze the relationship between serum low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-c) and dietary intake among Chinese middle-aged and older adults. Methods Data were collected from Chinese Nutrition and Health Surveillance in 2010-2012. A total of 28 092 participants aged 45y and older were collected in 150 surveillance sites of urban and rural in China. Questionnaire on general information and consecutive three days 24-hour dietary survey was conducted by qualified staff. Fasting serum HDL-c was tested by direct method and low HDL-c was evaluated by Guidelines on Prevention and Treatment of Blood Lipid Abnormality in Chinese Adults 2016 revised edition. Results The total prevalence of serum low HDL-c in male middle-aged and older adults was more than that in female (χ²=202.144, P<0.001).The prevalence of low HDL-c decreased with age (χ²=9.782, P=0.002) while increased with family average income (χ²=16.143, P<0.001) and educational levels (χ²=95.129, P<0.001). The difference among four regional types was significant (χ²=7.314, P=0.007), which was 36.5% in big city, 32.4% in small and medium-sized city, 33.5% in ordinary rural areas and 34.0% in poverty rural areas respectively. Among male participants with low HDL-c and normal HDL-c, difference of dietary fruit intake, eggs intake and milk intake were statistically significant both in urban and rural areas (all P<0.05). When comparing the dietary intake difference between low HDL-c and normal HDL-c among female participants, difference of red meats intake and poultry intake were significant both in urban and rural areas (all P<0.05). Logistic regression by adjustment of confounding factors showed that cereals, fruits and red meats were associated with low HDL-c, their OR and 95% CI were 1.06(1.03-1.09), 1.12(1.06-1.19) and 0.91(0.89-0.93). Conclusions The low HDL-c prevalence was high among middle-aged and older adults both in urban and rural areas of China; low HDL-c was related with cereals, fruits and red meats consumption.

Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and clustering of cardiovascular risk factors in adolescents. Methods A total of 1 777 residents from Longzihu area in Bengbu, Anhui Province were selected by random sampling. Questionnaires, physical examination and laboratory measurements were used to collect general and clinical information. TyG index was grouped by quartiles. Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between TyG index and cardiovascular risk factors clustering. Using ROC curve analysis, the cut-off value and clinical significance of cardiovascular risk factors clustering prediction by TyG index were calculated for comparison with other indicators. Results The survey included total 748 males (42.09%) and 1 029 females (57.91%) with the average age of (60.82±11.24) years. Spearman correlation analysis showed that TyG index were significantly correlated with cardiovascular disease risk factors (all P<0.001). Indeed, multivariate Logistic analysis showed that TyG index was a risk factor for cardiovascular disease risk factors clustering (OR=2.930, 95% CI:2.625-3.272). When the TyG index was 8.78, the Youden index of cardiovascular disease risk factors clustering determination by TyG index was the maximum. The area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC) curve of TyG index was significantly different from that of fasting blood glucose, triglycerides and body mass index (BMI) (all P<0.05). However, no significant difference was observed when compared with waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) (Z=0.117, P=0.907). Conclusions There is a significant correlation between TyG index and clustering of cardiovascular risk factors, suggesting that TyG index may be applied as a simple marker for identifying adolescents with clustering of cardiovascular risk factors.

Methods Total 4 088 middle-aged residents from one community of Jinchuan area in Jinchang City were included in this study. Basic health information was collected using a health-behavior factors survey. Linear regression model analysis was carried out on the relationship between blood pressure(systolic and diastolic) and BMI, WHtR. The efficacy and appropriate cut-off values of BMI and WHtR in the prediction of hypertension were assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Results Systolic and diastolic pressures increased with increasing BMI and WHtR. The effect of BMI on blood pressure was greater than that of WHtR. The prediction efficacy of BMI on hypertension were better than that of WHtR no matter male (Z=2.06,P=0.020) or female (Z=1.77, P=0.038). Conclusions BMI has a stronger correlation with blood pressure than that of WHtR in this middle-aged community residents. People with BMI ≥ 24.0 kg/m² and/or WHtR ≥ 0.5 should be the key residents for hypertension prevention and control.

Objective To conduct the investigation on the optimism cut off value on serological markers of gastric cancer, including PG I, PG I/PG Ⅱ ratio (PGR) and G-17 among Fujian population, and to improve the early detection and diagnosis rate. Methods The study participants were assigned to normal control group, atrophic gastritis group and gastric cancer group in accordance with the result of gastroscopy and pathological analyses. ELISA technique was employed to determine the fasting serum level of PG I, PG Ⅱ and G-17, and qualitative analysis on Hp-IgG antibody was also performed. The PGR was calculated for further analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curve was generated to estimate the optimism cut off value of above-mentioned serological markers. Results The serum level of PG I and PGR were significantly lower in gastric cancer cases when comparing with atrophic gastritis group and normal controls (all P<0.05). Similar difference were also observed in atrophic gastritis group when comparing with normal controls (all P<0.05). As for PG Ⅱ, the significant elevation in gastric cancer group when comparing with normal controls (Z=3.016, P=0.008), however, no significant difference was found when comparing with atrophic gastritis group (Z=0.115, P=0.909). In addition, significant elevation on PGI, PGⅡ and G-17 was observed in subjects with H.pylori infection when comparing with those free of H.pylori (all P<0.05), on the other hand, significant reduction on the PGR was also found in subjects with H.pylori infection (Z=10.135, P<0.001). The cut off value of PG I, PGR and G-17 for screening gastric cancer were 98.63 μg/L, 8.13 and 5.68 pmol/L, respectively.Conclusions The reduction on serum level of PG I and PGR and the elevation on G-17 are associated with the development of gastric cancer. The optimism cut off value of serum PG I, PGR and G-17 in the diagnosis of gastric cancer in different regions should be established.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the life quality of cured leprosy patients in Linyi City, China, and provide scientific suggestions for improving patients' life quality and health condition. Methods A total of 121 cured leprosy patients in Linyi City were selected as subjects by random sampling method. Using the modified version 2 of the SF-36 health survey (SF-36v2), the subjects were surveyed face to face for analysis and evaluation in 8 dimensions. The data were compared with those of Chinese equivalent norm to analyze the factors affecting quality of life. Results The average age of 121 subjects was 68.7 years old, and 80.2% of them were 60 years old or above. In total, 65 leprosy patients were disabled. Survey analysis showed that the quality of physical health score (PCS) was 35.8 and mental health scores (MCS) was 37.1, both being lower than the China norm (all P<0.05). Transformed scores of 8 dimensions in the SF-36 v2 questionnaire of the leprosy patients were lower than those of China norm (all P<0.05). The physical health score (PCS) of subjects living in the leprosy villages and those scattering across the society were 31.6 and 38.1 respectively, and PCS of subjects scattering across the society was significantly better than those in the leprosy villages (t=-2.276, P=0.025). The physical functioning, role-physical, general health, social functioning and role-emotional dimensions transformed scores of the patients in healthy subjects were higher than those of disabled patients (all P<0.05). Conclusions The cured leprosy patients are very old in Linyi City. Disability, non-divorced and psychological pressure are the major factors that affect the patients' quality of life after cure. The cured leprosy patients deserve more attention.

Abstract:
Objective To explore the influencing factors of self-injury behavior among undergraduates. Methods A total of 19 662 undergraduates were selected based on stratified random cluster sampling from 10 universities at various levels in Wuhan. Self-injurious behavior questionnaire, emotion adjustment difficulties scale and Eysenck personality questionnaire were conducted among subjects. Binary logistic regression and two-level binary logistic regression model were used to analyze the school-level factors influencing self-injury behavior incidence. Results The incidence of self-injurious behavior among undergraduates was 1.8%. Scores on emotional adjustment difficulties and personality in self-injury group were higher than those in non self-injury group (all P<0.05). The self-injury behavior among undergraduates revealed an aggregation in university-level. The two-level binary logistic regression model showed that gender, origin of student, left-behind experience, emotion dysregulation and personality disorder were predictive factors for self-injurious behavior (all P<0.05). Conclusions It is necessary to build positive coping strategies and improve psychological health level among undergraduates. Peer education intervention plays an important role in the prevention and control of self-injury behavior.

Methods 1 252 school-aged children were recruited from 4 schools by random cluster sampling, and non-condition Logistic regression was executed to analyze the knowledge and risk factors for CSA. Results Three factors related to CSA had the lowest rate of correct knowledge among school-aged children:children who were secually assaulted are right in the event (54.6%), children can be sexual assaulted by people with the same sex (54.2%), women can sexually abuse children (51.3%). Multivariate analysis results indicated that male, non-single child, non-resident, junior high school educational level and below, the low score of adaptability, aged 10 to 12 and aged 13 to 16 were risk factors (all P<0.05). Conclusions The school-aged children in rural area lack basic CSA prevention knowledge. It is necessary to promote CSA prevention education in school children, more attention should be paid to the left-behind children in rural area.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between 5-hydroxytryptophan (5HT), 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) level in peripheral blood and the drivers' accident proneness. Methods A case-control study was applied to this study. The motor vehicle drivers who had 3 or more times the same responsibility of road traffic accidents from January 2008 to December 2012 were selected as the cases, and other drivers who had not happened road traffic injuries during the same period with similar gender, vehicle type, age and driving years less than 2 years old as the control group. Results The levels of 5-HT and 5-HTP in the case group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the low level of 5-HT and the low level of 5-HTP were related to motor vehicle drivers' accident proneness (all P<0.05). Conclusions The driver accident proneness is related to the level of 5-HT and 5-HTP. 5-HT and 5-HTP levels were protective factors of drivers' accident proneness.

Abstract:
Objective To explore the mental health of drug addicts under compulsory rehabilitation. Methods Self-reporting inventory, state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI) and self-rating depression scale were used to evaluate the psychological condition of 1 031 subjects. Results The incidence of psychological problems was 53.73%. Except for interpersonal sensitivity, scores of rest items were significantly higher than the norm (all P<0.05). Hostility, STAI and paranoid ideation scores of males were significantly higher than females (all P<0.05). The lower level of education, the higher scores in somatization, obsessive-compulsive, anxiety, STAI and depression. Except for trait anxiety, there were significant differences in each dimension among addicts on different age groups (all P<0.05). The detoxification stage scores were the highest, STAI scores were getting lower with the progress of rehabilitation. Trait anxiety scores of addicts for the above-third-time and above rehabilitation were the highest. Except for hostility, phobia anxiety, paranoid ideation and psychoticism dimensions, the scores of injecting drug addicts were significantly higher than suction mouth drug users (all P<0.05). Conclusions The incidence of psychological problems of drug addicts under compulsory rehabilitation is higher and more severe than the norm. Mental health and emotion were affected by gender, age, culture level, rehabilitation stage, rehabilitation times and drug-taking patterns.

Abstract:
Objective To explore whether N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) can induce apoptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes through mitochondrial pathway and its potential mechanism preliminarily. Methods H9c2 Cardiomyocytes were cultured in vitro and divided into groups with different treatments:control group, NAC group (4 mmol/L), DMF group (200 mmol/L), NAC (4 mmol/L)+DMF (200 mmol/L) group. After treating with 24 h, the location of Cyt-c was detected by immunofluorescence cytochemistry (IFC) and the levels of Cyt-c, Bcl-2, Cleaved caspase-3 were detected by western blotting. Results IFC showed that the control and NAC group of Cyt-c were distributed in spotted or patchy shape in the cytoplasm, and the DMF group of Cyt-c was distributed in the cytoplasm diffusely, while NAC could inhibit the effect induced by DMF. Western blotting showed that the levels of Cyt-c different groups were significantly different (F=26.14, P<0.001). Comparing with the control group, as for the level of Cyt-c, the DMF group was significantly increased and the NAC+DMF group was significantly decreased than DMF group (all P<0.001); as for the level of Bcl-2 among different groups were significantly different (F=28.92,P<0.001). Compare with control group, the DMF group was significantly decreased and the NAC+DMF group was significantly increased than DMF group (all P<0.001); as for the level of Cleaved caspase-3, there were significantly different (F=28.98,P<0.001) among different groups. Compare with control group, the DMF group was significantly increased and the NAC+DMF group was significantly decreased than DMF group (all P<0.001). Conclusions DMF can induce apoptosis in H9c2 Cardiomyocytes through mitochondrial pathway. Oxidative stress may be involved in the pathogenesis.

Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the intervention strategies in Guangdong initiative for comprehensive control of syphilis (GICCS) from the aspect of health economics, and to provide the scientific basis for optimization and formulation of syphilis prevention and control strategy. Methods Two kinds of syphilis intervention strategies were considered:one was 80 percent coverage of syphilis screening (Strategy 1) and the other was 85 percent coverage of syphilis screening (Strategy 2). A Markov model for syphilis screening was applied based on the results of field surveys in GICCS and published literature. Cost-effectiveness analysis and sensitivity analysis were conducted through simulating the total costs and expected health outcomes of 10 000 syphilis high-risk people during the time horizon of 20 years under strategy 1 and Strategy 2 respectively from the societal perspective. Results Compared to strategy 1, strategy 2 would cost 3 998.88 million yuan more but avert 28 primary syphilis, 34 secondary syphilis, 337 latent syphilis and 8 tertiary syphilis cases and 392 disability adjusted life years (DALYs) at the same time. The incremental cost effectiveness ratio was 101.95 thousand yuan per DALYs. Sensitivity analyses showed that syphilis screening programme would have more cost effectiveness when the incidence of syphilis and the probability of late latent syphilis progressing to tertiary syphilis increased and the treatment rates of secondary syphilis and late latent syphilis decreased. Conclusion The syphilis intervention strategies GICCS adopts have cost effectiveness and can be popularized.
