Objective To quantitatively analyze type 1 receptor of insulin-like growth factors (IGF1Rs) on the HepG 2 cells. Methods 1H7 (monoclonal antibody against IGF1R) was labeled with radionuclide 131 I by Iodogen method. The mixture was purified with Sephadex G-50 column, 131 I-1H7, and its unlabeled counterpart 1H7 competitively bound to IGF1Rs on the HepG 2 cells. The average number of IGF1R on the HepG 2 cells was analyzed by Scatchard method. Results The Bmax of HepG 2 cells (2.0?10 5) in every well was 6.746?10 -12 mol/L. The expression of IGF1R on the HepG 2 cells was 2.03?10 4/cell. Conclusion IGF1Rs are expressed on the HepG 2 cells with high density and high affinity, which may be used in other related studies.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect and side effects of 89Sr metastron on treating multiple osseous metastasis tumor. Methods The total 83 patients had been treated by intravenously injecting 89Sr metastron at a dose of 2.22 MBq/kg. Results Among 83 cases, 31.3% of them got complete remission, 37.3% moderate remission, and 18.1% slight remission. The total effective rate was 86.7%. The side effects were mild, and only white blood cells and platelets transiently fell by 20%. Conclusion Internal radiotherapy with 89Sr metastron is the good alternative in treating multiple osseous metastasis tumor.

Objective To explore the inchoate changes in patients with Graves disease (GD) treated with 131I and appraise the therapeutic effect. Methods According to the thyroid size, patients’ age, thyroid 131I intake rate and course of the disease, 303 patients with GD were given individual 131I doses. Six months later, the symptom, signs, and thyroid hormone levels of every case were compared with those recorded before. Results The symptom and the level of thyroid hormones were significantly meliorated after 131I treatment. Six cases became goggle-eyed after treatment. Among the 303 patients, 249(82.18%) fully recovered, 21 (6.93%) partially remitted, 24(7.92%) developed hypothyroidism, and 9(2.97%) showed ineffective. Conclusion 131I treatment for GD with an individual dose can exert a satisfied therapeutic efficacy. It may as serve the first choice for GD treatment.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of human brucellosis in Sichuan Province, and to provide a scientific basis for prevention and control of brucellosis.Methods:Retrospective analysis methods were used to collect the data of reported cases of brucellosis in Sichuan Province from 2018 to 2020 from the "Infectious Disease Reporting Information Management System" in the "China Disease Prevention and Control Information System". The distribution (population, time and region) and case investigation data (epidemiological contact history and clinical manifestations) were analyzed by descriptive epidemiological.Results:A total of 309 cases of brucellosis were reported in Sichuan Province in 2018 - 2020, and no deaths occurred. The annual incidence rate was 0.123/100 000. Among the 309 reported cases of brucellosis, the sex ratio of men to women was 2.4 ∶ 1.0 (218 ∶ 91); the age of onset was mainly 20 - 60 years old, accounting for 79.9% (247/309); the occupation was mainly farmers, accounting for 51.8% (160/309). Brucellosis cases were reported in every month of the year, mainly from March to August, accounting for 72.5% (224/309) of the total number of cases. Cases were reported in 21 cities (autonomous prefectures) in Sichuan Province from 2018 to 2020. The top 5 cities (autonomous prefectures) in terms of cumulative number of cases were Chengdu, Liangshan, Zigong, Neijiang and Luzhou in order, accounting for 60.5% (187/309) of the total number of cases. Among the 309 reported cases of brucellosis, 279 case investigations were completed. Among them, 258 cases had a history of contact with livestock and their products, accounting for 92.5%; all contacted livestock were sheep; the main mode of transmission was direct contact, accounting for 88.5% (247/279); the main routes of transmission were sheep farming (50.2%, 140/279), sheep slaughtering (18.6%, 52/279), selling mutton or cutting sheep products in mutton restaurants (11.1%, 31/279); the main clinical manifestations were fever, fatigue, hyperhidrosis, and muscle and joint pain, accounting for 91.4% (255/279), 89.2% (249/279), 80.3% (224/279) and 65.2% (182/279), respectively.Conclusions:The spread of brucellosis in Sichuan Province is increasing, and spring and summer are the epidemic seasons. Brucellosis cases are most common in sheep farms, and the infection method is mainly direct contact infection; the clinical manifestations are diverse and non-specific. Relevant departments should strengthen the prevention and control of the disease in key populations and regions to control the outbreak of brucellosis.
