Objective:To interpret the main revision about the test method for bacteriostat effect in Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2015 edition). Methods:The main difference of the bacteriostat effect test method in Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2015 edition) and (2010 edi-tion) was compared. Results:The bacteriostat effect test method in the 2015 edition was revised at a comparatively large scale in the positioning of bacteriostat effect test, product classification, assessment criteria and so on. Conclusion: The bacteriostat effect test method in Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2015 edition) gradually improves the check standards in line with the international standards.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features,differential diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of Burkitt-like lymphoma with 11q aberration (BLL-11q).Methods:The clinical manifestations,histological morphology,immunophenotype and molecular genetic changes of 2 cases of BLL-11q admitted to the department of pathology of The First People's Hospital of Lianyungang in 2020 and 2021 were analyzed retrospectively,and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:Patients were found with right neck masses inadvertently and grew rapidly. They presented with localized disease with Ann Arbor stages IA and IIA. Microscopically, the normal structure of the lymph node disappeared and was replaced by a diffuse proliferation of lymphocytes, with consistent morphology and medium size. And the presence of "star-sky" phenomenon was obvious, the morphological characteristics were similar to Burkitt lymphoma. Immunophenotypically, tumor cells were diffusely positive for CD20, CD79α, PAX5, CD10 and Bcl-6, partly moderately positive for C-MYC and MUM-1, however, CD3, Bcl-2, CD30 and TDT were negative,Ki-67 positive index was more than 95%, and EBER was negative. FISH detection showed that MYC, Bcl-2, and Bcl-6 were negative. Both cases had the 11q23.3 gain and 11q24.3 loss. Both patients were treated with chemotherapy and followed up for 10-22 months,and achieved complete remission and disease-free survival.Conclusion:BLL-11q is a rare germinal center B-cell lymphoma with abnormal long arm of chromosome 11 and lack of MYC gene rearrangement. It should be distinguished from Burkitt lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, B-lymphoblastic lymphoma, large B-cell lymphoma with IRF4 rearrangement and high-grade B-cell lymphoma. On the basis of morphology and immunophenotype, the diagnosis depends on genetic detection. There may be a better prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the effects of different intensity of lighting on normal refractive development and form deprivation myopia (FDM) in guinea pigs.Methods:A total of 108 healthy 3-week-old guinea pigs were divided into normal refractive development guinea pigs ( n=54) and FDM guinea pigs ( n=54). FDM models were prepared in FDM animals by occlusion of the left eyes using an opaque mask, and the bilateral eyes were open in the normal refractive development guinea pigs.The guinea pigs were randomized to low (20 lx), normal(300 lx), and high intensity-lighting (5 000 lx) groups with a 12-hour light/12-hour dark cycle for 6 consecutive weeks under LED light.The ocular biometry was performed in a two-week interval.Axial length (AL) and dilated diopter were measured by A-scan ultrasonography and retinoscopy, respectively, and were compared after different lighting durations, and the change trends of them in normal refractive development and FDM guinea pigs were evaluated. Results:The AL values were not significantly different among low, normal and high intensity-lighting groups ( Fgroup=0.365, P=0.697), and the AL was gradually prolonged over the lighting duration ( Ftime=353.750, P<0.001). The diopters showed a statistically significant difference among different intensity-lighting groups ( Fgroup=3.576, P=0.034). The diopter in high intensity-lighting for 4 weeks was (+ 2.75±2.15) D, which was significantly higher than (0.41±3.07) D in the normal refrective development guinea pigs ( P<0.001). In the FDM guinea pigs, both AL and diopter were not significantly different among low, normal and high intensity-lighting groups ( Fgroup=0.105, P=0.900; Fgroup=0.973, P=0.387), and significant differences were seen in AL and diopter among three groups ( Ftime=408.302, 27.407; both at P<0.001). The diopter in FDM eyes of low intensity-lighting for 2 weeks was (+ 2.35±1.95) D, which was higher than (+ 1.90±0.97) D before lighting, with no statistically significant difference between them ( P>0.05). The AL was shortest and the AL change was smallest in normal refractive development guinea pigs of high intensity-lighting group.The diopter change in FDM guinea pigs of the low intensity-lighting group was significantly smaller than that in the normal intensity-lighting group ( P<0.001), with a transient hyperopia drift. Conclusions:The 5 000 lx lighting can slow down the development toward myopia in the normal refractive development eyes, and 20 lx lighting tends to delay the progression FDM eyes with a hyperopic shift after lighting for 2 weeks.

School-age children are in a specific development stage corresponding to juvenility, when the white matter of the brain experiences ongoing maturation. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI), especially diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), is extensively used to characterize the maturation by assessing white matter properties in vivo. In the analysis of DWI data, spatial normalization is crucial for conducting inter-subject analyses or linking the individual space with the reference space. Using tensor-based registration with an appropriate diffusion tensor template presents high accuracy regarding spatial normalization. However, there is a lack of a standardized diffusion tensor template dedicated to school-age children with ongoing brain development. Here, we established the school-age children diffusion tensor (SACT) template by optimizing tensor reorientation on high-quality DTI data from a large sample of cognitively normal participants aged 6-12 years. With an age-balanced design, the SACT template represented the entire age range well by showing high similarity to the age-specific templates. Compared with the tensor template of adults, the SACT template revealed significantly higher spatial normalization accuracy and inter-subject coherence upon evaluation of subjects in two different datasets of school-age children. A practical application regarding the age associations with the normalized DTI-derived data was conducted to further compare the SACT template and the adult template. Although similar spatial patterns were found, the SACT template showed significant effects on the distributions of the statistical results, which may be related to the performance of spatial normalization. Looking forward, the SACT template could contribute to future studies of white matter development in both healthy and clinical populations. The SACT template is publicly available now ( https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/SACT_template/14071283 ).
