| 2 | Missed diagnosis of early gastric cancer or high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia显示文摘AIM: To investigate the causes of missed diagnosis of early gastric cancer (EGC) or high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) in Chongqing, China. METHODS: The present study summarizes 103 cases of EGC/HGIN detected by esophagogastroduodenos-copy (EGD) and pathological analysis from January 2010 to December 2011. Dimethyl silicone oil was administrated orally 15 min before the EGD procedures. The stomach was cleaned by repeated washing with saline when the gastroscope entered the stomach cavity. Suspected EGC lesions were subject to conventional biopsy sampling and pathological examinations. The correlation between lesion locations, endoscopic morphology of cancerous sites, training level of the examiners, pathological biopsies, and missed diagnosis was analyzed. RESULTS: Twenty-three cases were missed among the 103 cases (22.23%) of EGC/HGIN. The rate of missed EGC in the gastroesophageal junction (8/19, 42.1%) was significantly higher than at other sites (15/84, 17.86%) (χ2 = 5.253, P = 0.022). In contrast, the rate of missed EGC in the lower stomach body (2/14, 14.29%) was lower than at other sites (21/89,23.6%), but there were no significant differences (χ2 = 0.289, P = 0.591). The rate of missed EGC in the gastric antrum (5/33, 15.15%) was lower than at other sites (18/70, 25.71%), but there were no significant differences (χ2 = 1.443, P = 0.230). Endoscopists from less prestigious hospitals were more prone to not diagnosing EGC than those from more prestigious hospitals (χ2 = 4.261, P = 0.039). When the number of biopsies was < 4, the rate of missed diagnosis was higher (20/23, 89.96%) than for when there were > 4 biopsies (3/23, 13.04%) (P < 0.001). In addition, there was no significant difference in the rate of missed diagnosis in patients with 1-3 biopsy specimens (χ2 = 0.141, P = 0.932). CONCLUSION: Endoscopists should have a clear understanding of the anatomical characteristics of the esophagus/stomach, and endoscopic identification of early lesions increases with the number of biopsies. | Wei Ren Jin Yu Zhi-Mei Zhang Yuan-Kun Song Yi-Hui Li Lei Wang | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,13: | 58 |

| 4 | Energy balance closure at ChinaFLUX sites显示文摘Network of eddy covariance observation is measuring long-term carbon and water fluxes in contrasting ecosystems and climates. As one important reference of independently evaluating scalar flux estimates from eddy covariance, energy balance closure is used widely in study of carbon and water fluxes. Energy balance closure in ChinaFLUX was evaluated by statistical regression of turbulent energy fluxes (sensible and latent heat) against available energy (net radiation, soil heat flux, canopy heat storage) and the energy balance ratio (EBR) and the frequency distribution of relative errors of energy balance (δ). The trends of diurnal and seasonal variation of energy balance in ChinaFLUX were analyzed. The results indicated that the imbalance was prevalent in all observation sites, but there were little differences among sites because of the properties variation of sites. The imbalance was greater during nocturnal periods than daytime and closure was improved with friction velocity intensifying. Generally the results suggested that estimates of the scalar turbulent fluxes of sensible and latent heat were underestimated and/or that available energy was overestimated. Finally, we discussed certain factors that are contributed to the imbalance of energy, such as systematic errors associated with the sampling mismatch, systematic instrument bias, neglected energy sinks, low and high frequency loss of turbulent fluxes and advection of heat and water vapor. | LI Zhengquan, YU Guirui, WEN Xuefa, ZHANG Leiming, REN Chuanyou & FU Yuling Chinese Ecosystem Research Network Synthesis Research Center, Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100039, China | 2005 | Science China Earth Sciences2005,48,z1: | 50 |
| 5 | Spatial and temporal variations and controlling factors of potential evapotranspiration in China:1956-2000显示文摘Based on the climatic data of 580 stations in China during 1956 and 2000, potential evapotranspiration are calculated using the Penman-Monteith Method recommended by FAO. The spatial and temporal distributions of the potential evapotranspiration over China and the temporal trends of the regional means for 10 major river basins and whole China are analyzed. Through a partial correlation analysis, the major climate factors which affect the temporal change of the potential evapotranspiration are analyzed. Major results are drawn as follows: 1) The seasonal and annual potential evapotranspiration for China as a whole and for most basins show decline tendencies during the past 45 years; for the Songhua River Basin there appears a slightly increasing trend. 2) Consequently, the annual potential evapotranspirations averaged over 1980-2000 are lower than those for the first water resources assessment (1956-1979) in most parts of China. Exceptions are found in some areas of Shandong Peninsula, western and middle basins of the rivers in Southwest China, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region as well as the source regions of the Yangtze and Yellow rivers, which may have brought about disadvantages to the exploration and utilization of water resources. 3) Generally, sunshine duration, wind speed and relative humidity have greater impact on the potential evapotranspiration than temperature. Decline tendencies of sunshine duration and/or wind speed in the same period appear to be the major causes for the negative trend of the potential evapotranspiration in most areas. | GAO Ge CHEN Deliang REN Guoyu CHEN Yu LIAO Yaoming | 2006 | Journal of Geographical Sciences2006,16,1: | 34 |

| 9 | Gynura root induces hepatic veno-occlusive disease:A case report and review of the literature显示文摘Gynura root has been used extensively in Chinese folk medicine and plays a role in promoting microcirculation and relieving pain.However,its hepatic toxicity should not be neglected.Recently,we admitted a 62-year old female who developed hepatic veno-occlusive disease(HVOD)after ingestion of Gynura root.Only a few articles on HVOD induced by Gynura root have been reported in the literature.It is suspected that pyrrolizidine alkaloids in Gynura root might be responsible for HVOD.In this paper,we report a case of HVOD and review the literature. | Ning Dai Ying-Cong Yu Tian-Hua Ren Jia-Guo Wu Yuan Jiang Lai-Gen Shen Jing Zhang | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,10: | 27 |
| 10 | Altered trends in carbon uptake in China’s terrestrial ecosystems under the enhanced summer monsoon and warming hiatus显示文摘The carbon budgets in terrestrial ecosystems in China are strongly coupled with climate changes.Over the past decade,China has experienced dramatic climate changes characterized by enhanced summer monsoon and decelerated warming.However,the changes in the trends of terrestrial net ecosystem production(NEP)in China under climate changes are not well documented.Here,we used three ecosystem models to simulate the spatiotemporal variations in China's NEP during 1982–2010 and quantify the contribution of the strengthened summer monsoon and warming hiatus to the NEP variations in four distinct climatic regions of the country.Our results revealed a decadal-scale shift in NEP from a downtrend of–5.95 Tg C/yr^2(reduced sink)during 1982–2000 to an uptrend of 14.22 Tg C/yr^2(enhanced sink)during 2000–10.This shift was essentially induced by the strengthened summer monsoon,which stimulated carbon uptake,and the warming hiatus,which lessened the decrease in the NEP trend.Compared to the contribution of 56.3%by the climate effect,atmospheric CO2 concentration and nitrogen deposition had relatively small contributions(8.6 and 11.3%,respectively)to the shift.In conclusion,within the context of the global-warming hiatus,the strengthening of the summer monsoon is a critical climate factor that enhances carbon uptake in China due to the asymmetric response of photosynthesis and respiration.Our study not only revealed the shift in ecosystem carbon sequestration in China in recent decades,but also provides some insight for understanding ecosystem carbon dynamics in other monsoonal areas. | Honglin He Shaoqiang Wang Li Zhang Junbang Wang Xiaoli Ren Lei Zhou Shilong Piao Hao Yan Weimin Ju Fengxue Gu Shiyong Yu Yuanhe Yang Miaomiao Wang Zhongen Niu Rcmg Ge Huimin Yan Mei Huang Guoyi Zhou Yongfei Bai Zongqiang Xie Zhiyao Tang Bingfang Wu Leiming Zhang Nianpeng He Qiufeng Wang Guirui Yu | 2019 | National Science Review2019,6,3: | 24 |
| 11 | TANDEM and GMAW Twin Wire Welding of Q690 Steel Used in Hydraulic Support显示文摘Compared with using semi-automatic gas shielded arc welding, using automatic TANDEM twin wire welding and twin wire gas metal arc welding (GMAW) to weld Q690 steel, a low-alloy high-strength structural steel used in the hydraulic support in the fully-mechanized mining face, the welding speed, deposition rate, production environment and welding quality can be obviously improved. Compared with GMAW twin wire welding, a refined microstructure in the weld and heat-affected zone (HAZ), narrow HAZ and improved joint strength were achieved with TANDEM on Q690. Also, due to the push-pull pulsed way in TANDEM welding, the droplet transfer, distribution on heat flow and interaction between two arcs were completely different from those in GMAW twin wire system. The heat input of TANDEM is only about 76.6% of GMAW, and correspondingly, the welding speed and welding seam can be obviously improved. The complete oscillation caused by TANDEM pulsed current occurred in the welding pool, which refined the grains in the microstructure. The results show that TANDEM twin wire welding is very suitable in the welding of Q690 used in the hydraulic support. | FANG Chen-fu MENG Xiao-hui HU Qing-xian WANG Feng-jiang REN He WANG Hai-song GUO Yu MAO Ming | 2012 | Journal of Iron and Steel Research(International)2012,19,5: | 22 |

| 13 | Climate and litter C/N ratio constrain soil organic carbon accumulation显示文摘Soil organic carbon(SOC) plays critical roles in stabilizing atmospheric CO2 concentration, but the mechanistic controls on the amount and distribution of SOC on global scales are not well understood. In turn, this has hampered the ability to model global C budgets and to find measures to mitigate climate change. Here, based on the data from a large field survey campaign with 2600 plots across China’s forest ecosystems and a global collection of published data from forested land, we find that a low litter carbon-to-nitrogen ratio(C/N) and high wetness index(P/PET, precipitation-to-potentialevapotranspiration ratio) are the two factors that promote SOC accumulation, with only minor contributions of litter quantity and soil texture. The field survey data demonstrated that high plant diversity decreased litter C/N and thus indirectly promoted SOC accumulation by increasing the litter quality. We conclude that any changes in plant-community composition, plant-species richness and environmental factors that can reduce the litter C/N ratio, or climatic changes that increase wetness index, may promote SOC accumulation. The study provides a guideline for modeling the carbon cycle of various ecosystem scales and formulates the principle for land-based actions for mitigating the rising atmospheric CO2 concentration. | Guoyi Zhou Shan Xu Philippe Ciais Stefano Manzoni Jingyun Fang Guirui Yu Xuli Tang Ping Zhou Wantong Wang Junhua Yan Gengxu Wang Keping Ma Shenggong Li Sheng Du Shijie Han Youxin Ma Deqiang Zhang Juxiu Liu Shizhong Liu Guowei Chu Qianmei Zhang Yuelin Li Wenjuan Huang Hai Ren Xiankai Lu Xiuzhi Chen | 2019 | National Science Review2019,6,4: | 21 |
| 14 | Microfluidic Electrospray Niacin Metal-Organic Frameworks Encapsulated Microcapsules for Wound Healing显示文摘Niacin metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)encapsulated microcapsules with alginate shells and copper-/zinc-niacin framework cores were in situ synthesized by using a microfuidic electrospray approach for wound healing.As the alginate shells were bacteriaresponsively degradable,the niacin MOFs encapsulated microcapsules could intelligently,controllably,and programmably release calcium,copper,and zinc ions,depending on the degree of infections.Te released ions could not only kill microbes by destroying their membrane and inducing the outfow of nutrient substance,but also activate copper/zinc superoxide dismutase(Cu/ZnSOD)to eliminate oxygen free radicals and rescue the cells from oxidative stress injury.Furthermore,the simultaneously released niacin could promote hemangiectasis and absorption of functional metal ions.Tus,the niacin MOFs encapsulated microcapsules were imparted with outstanding antibacterial,antioxidant,and angiogenesis properties.Based on an in vivo study,we have also demonstrated that the chronic wound healing process of an infected full-thickness skin defect model could be signifcantly enhanced by using the niacin MOFs encapsulated microcapsules as therapeutic agent.Terefore,the microfuidic electrospray niacin MOFs encapsulated microcapsules are potential for clinical applications. | Guopu Chen Yunru Yu Xiuwen Wu Gefei Wang Guosheng Gu Feng Wang Jianan Ren Huidan Zhang Yuanjin Zhao | 2019 | Research2019,,1: | 21 |
| 15 | Cropland cover change in Northeast China during the past 300 years显示文摘Land use/cover change induced by human activities has emerged as a 'global' phenomenon with Earth system consequences. Northeast China is an area where the largest land cultivation activities by migrants have happened in China during the past 300 years. In this paper, methods including documentary data calibration and multi-sourced data conversion model are used to reconstruct historical cropland cover change in Northeast China during the past 300 years. It is concluded that human beings have remarkably changed the natural landscape of the region by land cultivation in the past 300 years. Cropland area has increased almost exponentially during the past 300 years, especially during the past 100 years when the ratio of cropland cover changed from 10% to 20%. Until the middle of the 19th century, the agricultural area was still mainly restricted in Liaoning Province. From the late 19th century to the early 20th century, dramatic changes took place when the northern boundary of cultivation had extended to the middle of Heilongjiang Province. During the 20th century, three agricultural regions with high ratio of cropland cover were formed after the two phases of spatial expansion of cropland area in 1900s—1930s and 1950s—1980s. Since 1930s—1940s, the expansion of new cultivated area have invaded the forest lands especially in Jilin and Heilongjiang Provinces. | YE Yu FANG XiuQi REN YuYu ZHANG XueZhen CHEN Li | 2009 | Science China Earth Sciences2009,52,8: | 21 |
| 16 | 亚太地区胃食管反流病的处理共识:更新版显示文摘背景与目的:自从2004年亚太地区胃食管反流病(GERD)共识发表以来,更多关于GERD流行病学和处理的文献资料相继出现。有必要对这些资料进行循证综述,对共识作出更新。方法:由多学科专家组应用德尔菲(Delphi)法制定共识条文,提呈相关资料,并对证据质量、推荐力度和共识水平进行分级。结果:亚洲GERD发生率日益增加。其危险因素包括老年、男性、种族、家族史、社会经济地位高、体重指数增加和吸烟。对于有典型症状而无报警症状的患者,对质子泵抑制剂(PPI)试验有症状应答具有诊断意义。如PPI试验失败,停止治疗后pH监测结果阴性可排除GERD。窄带成像、胶囊内镜检查和无线pH监测的作用尚未明确。亚洲诊断策略的制定须考虑到并存的胃癌和消化性溃疡。减轻体质量和抬高床头可改善反流症状。PPIs是最有效的内科治疗手段。对于非糜烂性反流病(NERD)患者,按需治疗较为适宜。有慢性咳嗽、喉炎和典型GERD症状的患者在排除非GERD病因后,应予PPI每天两次治疗。如有经验丰富的外科医师,GERD患者可行胃底折叠术。除临床试验外,GERD不应采用内镜治疗。结论:新的诊断方法和内镜治疗的作用有待进一步研究阐明。亚洲GERD诊断策略的制定须考虑到并存的胃癌和消化性溃疡。PPIs仍为治疗的基石。 | Kwong Ming Fock Nicholas J Talley Ronnie Fass Khean Lee Goh Peter Katelaris Richard Hunt Michio Hongo Tiing Leong Ang Gerald Holtmann Sanjay Nandurkar San Ren Lin Benjamin CY Wong Francis KL Chan Abdul Aziz Rani Young-Tae Bak Jose Sollano Khek Yu Ho Sathoporn Manatsathit 钱本余 | 2008 | 胃肠病学2008,13,7: | 21 |
| 17 | Interleukin-8 associates with adhesion,migration,invasion and chemosensitivity of human gastric cancer cells显示文摘AIM:To investigate the relationship between Interleukin-8 (IL-8) and proliferation,adhesion,migration,invasion and chemosensitivity of gastric cancer (GC) cells.METHODS:The IL-8 cDNA was stably transfected into human GC cell line MKN-45 and selected IL-8-secreting transfectants.The expression of IL-8 in human GC cell line KATO-Ⅲ was inhibited by RNA interference.The expressions of mRNA and protein of IL-8 in GC cells were detected by real-time reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).RESULTS:The overexpression of IL-8 resulted in an increased cell adhesion,migration and invasion,and a significant resistance to oxaliplatin in MKN-45 cells.Inhibition of IL-8 expression with small interfering RNA decreased the adhesion,migration and invasion functions and oxaliplatin resistance in KATO-Ⅲ cells.IL-8 increased NF-κB and Akt activities and adhesion molecules ICAM-1,VCAM-1,and CD44 expression in GC cells.CONCLUSION:Overexpression of IL-8 promotes the adhesion,migration,invasion,and chemoresistance of GC cells,indicating that IL-8 is an important therapeutic target in GC. | Wen-Xia Kuai Qiong wang Xiao-Zhong Yang Yao Zhao Ren Yu Xiao-Jun Tang | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,9: | 21 |

| 20 | Sirtuin 1 alleviates endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells in ulcerative colitis显示文摘BACKGROUND Sirtuin 1(SIRT1)is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NAD+)-dependent protein deacetylase that is involved in various diseases,including cancers,metabolic diseases,and inflammation-associated diseases.However,the role of SIRT1 in ulcerative colitis(UC)is still confusing.AIM To investigate the role of SIRT1 in intestinal epithelial cells(IECs)in UC and further explore the underlying mechanisms.METHODS We developed a coculture model using macrophages and Caco-2 cells.After treatment with the SIRT1 activator SRT1720 or inhibitor nicotinamide(NAM),the expression of occludin and zona occludens 1(ZO-1)was assessed by Western blot analysis.Annexin V-APC/7-AAD assays were performed to evaluate Caco-2 apoptosis.Dextran sodium sulfate(DSS)-induced colitis mice were exposed to SRT1720 or NAM for 7 d.Transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling(TUNEL)assays were conducted to assess apoptosis in colon tissues.The expression levels of glucose-regulated protein 78(GRP78),CCAAT/enhancerbinding protein homologous protein(CHOP),caspase-12,caspase-9,and caspase-3 in Caco-2 cells and the colon tissues of treated mice were examined by quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot.RESULTS SRT1720 treatment increased the protein levels of occludin and ZO-1 and inhibited Caco-2 apoptosis,whereas NAM administration caused the opposite effects.DSS-induced colitis mice treated with SRT1720 had a lower disease activity index(P<0.01),histological score(P<0.001),inflammatory cytokine levels(P<0.01),and apoptotic cell rate(P<0.01),while exposure to NAM caused the opposite effects.Moreover,SIRT1 activation reduced the expression levels of GRP78,CHOP,cleaved caspase-12,cleaved caspase-9,and cleaved caspase-3 in Caco-2 cells and the colon tissues of treated mice.CONCLUSION SIRT1 activation reduces apoptosis of IECs via the suppression of endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis-associated molecules CHOP and caspase-12.SIRT1 activation may be a potential therapeutic strategy for UC. | Meng-Ting Ren Meng-Li Gu Xin-Xin Zhou Mo-Sang Yu Hang-Hai Pan Feng Ji Chen-Yan Ding | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,38: | 20 |
