The expression of nm23-H1 and p53 genes were studied with ABC immunohistochemical method in 54 cases of gastric cancer and 57 cases of colorectal cancer. The result showed that the expression of nm23-H1 was 72.2% in gastric cancer and 64.9% in colorectal cancer, respectively. No significant difference was found between the expression of this gene and lymph node metastasis of the cancers. The mutant p53 protein expression was 53.7% and 52.6% in gastric and colorectal cancers, respectively. Although it was not correlated with lymph node metastasis, its expression was significantly higher in cancers with distant metastases, suggesting that the mutant p53 protein expression may be indicative of poor prognosis in gastrointestinal cancers.

【Objective】 To compare three kinds of platelet antibody detection methods used to identify alloantibodies in patients with platelet transfusion refractory(PTR). 【Methods】 The 83 samples from PTR patients were analyzed base on three different methods, including solid phase ELISA, Luminex, and capture. The sensitivity, reproducibility, and consistency of different kits were evaluated. 【Results】 A total of 71 (62 positive and 9 negative) out of 83 samples showed consistent results by three methods. The consistency between Luminex and solid phase ELISA was 95.2% (Kapp value=0.829, P<0.05), between solid phase ELISA and capture method was 85.5% (Kapp value=0.512, P<0.05), and between Luminex and capture method was 90.3% (kappa value=0.636, P<0.05). Among the 12 samples with inconsistent results, 3 cases presented positive results by capture method alone and negative by other methods, which had incompatible cross-matching results with 6 random blood donors; 5 cases with HLA antibodies showed negative results by capture method alone and positive by both Luminex and solid phase ELISA; the other 4 cases were positive in both capture and Luminex, but negative in solid phase ELISA. 【Conclusion】 The consistency of three methods was 85.5%, and each has its limitations. The capture method is rapid, economic and registered domestically, which can be used for preliminary screening.Luminex has the optimal diagnostic performance, which can be used for high-throughput and HPA/HLA antibody analysis. The solid phase ELISA is convenient. The combination of them can detect platelet antibodies effectively.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect and safety of the thrombolysis-combined butyphthalide therapy on acute cerebral infarction.Methods:A total of 58 patients with acute cerebral infarction receiving thrombolytic therapy in Henan Provincial People's Hospital from June 2016 to August 2018 were randomly divided into the thrombolytic group(recombinant tissue type plasminogen activator i. e.rt-PA, n=29)and the group of butyphthalide plus rt-PA(n=29). Neurological function(National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, NIHSS), daily living ability(Barthel index score)and the ultrasound-detected cerebral blood flow were compared between the two groups to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety.Results:After the treatment, NIHSS score was significantly lower in the group of butyphthalide plus rt-PA than in the thrombolysis group(5.24±2.61 vs.8.15±2.55 points, P=0.015). The Barthel index was significantly higher in the group of butyphthalide plus rt-PA than in the thrombolysis group(75.32±4.42 vs.57.37±3.54 points, P=0.024). The cerebral blood supply was improved in both groups after treatment as compared with pre-treatment.After treatment, the peak flow velocity of middle cerebral artery was 78.34±4.82 cm/s and 67.16±3.37 cm/s( P=0.017)and the average flow velocity of the middle cerebral artery was(44.19±2.18)cm/s and(37.49±2.16)cm/s( P=0.029)in the group of butylphthalide plus rt-PA than in the thrombolysis group, respectively, which showed the blood supply of the middle cerebral artery was better in butyphthalide plus rt-PA therapy than in thrombolytic therapy.Clinical effective rate was 89.7%(26/29)in butyphthalide plus rt-PA group, which was better than that in the thrombolysis group(65.5%, 19/29)( χ2=4.851, P=0.029). During the treatment, 2 patients had mild gastrointestinal reactions in both groups, which were relieved after treatment of symptoms, and no serious adverse reaction occurred in other patients. Conclusions:The combined therapy of butyphthalide and thrombolysis can improve clinical efficacy rate on acute cerebral infarction, improve the cerebral hemodynamics, promote the recovery of neurological function, and improve the quality of life of patients.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility,safety and effectiveness of integrated treatmentwith comprehensively interventional techniques for acute deep venous thrombosis(DVT)of lower extremity. Methods During the period from June 2016 to June 2017,a total of 23 patients with acute DVT ofunilateral lower extremity were admitted to authors' hospital to receive integrated treatment. AngioJetthrombectomy,balloon angioplasty and iliac vein stent implantation were performed in the same setting.Angiography was performed immediately after the procedure. If the thrombus clearance rate was grade Ⅲand there were no large free clots(>5mm)in the lower extremity vein and inferior vena cava,the inferiorvena cava filters would be retrieved through their sheath,otherwise,the inferior vena cava filters would bereleased. All patients received continuous transcatheter infusion of urokinase until the thrombosis wasconfirmed to be completely dissolved. The patients were followed up at outpatient clinic at 1,3,6 and 12months after the treatment,and reexamination of color ultrasound and/or lower limb venography was used toassess the blood flow in the deep veins and in the stents. Results Angiography postoperatively showedthrombus clearance rate of grade Ⅲ was obtained in 20 patients(87%)who were successfully accomplishedintegrated treatment. The inferior vena cava filters had been retrieved after thrombolysis in 3 patients(13%)with thrombus clearance rate of grade Ⅱ. Twenty-one stents were implanted directly after thrombectomy in21 patients with iliac vein stenosis. There were no serious complications such as pulmonary embolism,severe hemorrhage,etc. Venous patency was confirmed by color ultrasound or lower limb venography. Conclusion Integrated treatment with comprehensively interventional techniques is feasible,safe,andeffective for acute DVT of lower extremity

Objective:The surveillance results of brucellosis in Lushan County, Pingdingshan City, Henan Province are analyzed to provide basis for formulating prevention and control strategies.Methods:Retrospective analysis method was used to collect the surveillance data from Lushan County Center for Disease Control and Prevention and Animal Husbandry Department from 2011 to 2019. Descriptive statistical analysis was made on the serological, pathogenic of brucellosis.Results:From 2011 to 2019, 15 943 high-risk people were investigated, and 10 834 were serologically tested, with a positive detection rate of 23.11% (2 504/10 834). Among them, the positive detection rate of brucellosis serum increased rapidly in 2013 and decreased after 2016. The positive detection rate was 25.87% (1 593/6 157) in men and 19.48% (911/4 677) in women. The age of positive detection was mainly 40-< 70 years old, accounting for 70.45% (1 764/2 504). The positive detection rate of farmers in all occupations was the highest, which was 25.97% (2 242/8 634). There were significant differences in the positive detection rates among different gender, age and occupation (χ 2=61.163, 27.855, 257.412, P < 0.01). A total of 578 blood samples from patients with acute brucellosis were isolated and cultured, 215 strains of Brucella were detected, and the positive detection rate was 37.20%. Conclusions:The high-risk group of human brucellosis in Lushan County, Pingdingshan City is middle-aged and elderly male farmers engaged in aquaculture. It is suggested that the joint prevention and control measures should be strengthened, the health education of high-risk groups should be strengthened, and comprehensive prevention and control measures should be taken to control the occurrence and prevalence of brucellosis.

Immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment is an important obstacle to tumor immunotherapy.Therefore,improving tumor microenvironment to enhance immune response is the key to improve the efficacy of immunotherapy.Based on the basic principle of immunology that the body has a strong response to"foreign"antigens and a weak response to preexisting antigens,pathogen infection can be combined with innate immune-related receptors to enhance the anti-tumor immune response.Pathogen vaccines can induce a"hot"tumor microenvironment with stronger antigen presentation and T lymphocyte activation,showing higher response to immunotherapy and having better security.In this review,we summarized the related studies on pathogen vaccine enhancing tumor immune response,including mixed bacterial vaccine,BCG vaccine,OK-432,synthetic vaccines based on tetanus toxin,modified vaccinia virus,influenza vaccine,Epstein-Barr virus and COVID-19 vaccine.The feasibility,application prospect and challenge of pathogen vaccine in tumor immunotherapy were discussed.

Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a highly heterogeneous group of malignant tumors originating from mesenchymal tissues. The most common sites of STS are limbs (45%), viscera (21%) and retroperitoneum (17%). The incidence of head and neck soft tissue sarcomas (HNSTS) is the lowest (5%) compared with other areas of the body. Due to numerous functional organs and delicate and complex anatomical structures of the head and neck, it is often difficult to perform radical surgical treatment. Therefore, radiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of HNSTS. Due to its low incidence, radiotherapy for HNSTS has been rarely studied and captivated little attention. In this article, the present situation and clinical evidence of radiotherapy for HNSTS were summarized, aiming to provide reference for clinical practice.
