Objective Comparison the coincidence rate in the colloidal gold method and the passive agglu-tination method to detect mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection, discuss the clinical value in rapid diagnosis of MP infection in the two methods. Methods Two-hundred patients with MP infection, including 100 cases in the the children group, and 100 cases in the adult group, were detected in MP-IgM antibody in serum with the colloidal gold method and the passive agglutination method. Results The positive rate of MP-IgM antibody with the passive agglutination method were slightly higher than that of the colloidal gold method in the children group (P > 0.05), While the positive rate of MP-IgM antibody with the passive agglutination method in the adult group were signifi-cantly higher than that of the colloidal gold method (P<0.05). When the antibody titer of MP-IgM antibody were 1:60, ≥1:320 in the children group, the coincidence rate of the positive results with the colloidal gold method and the passive agglutination method were 95.40%, 95.30%;When the antibody titer of MP-IgM antibody were 1:80, 1:160,≥1:320 in the adult group, the coincidence rate of the positive results with the colloidal gold method and the passive agglutination method were 0, 61.90%, 63.80%. Conclusions In the pediatric MP infection, for the high an-tibody titer of MP-IgM antibody, the positive coincidence rate with the colloidal gold method can reach clinical diag-nostic requirements. Clinical physicians according to the age and disease process of patients choose the appropriate method in order to realize the simple, rapid and accurate diagnosis of mycoplasma pneumoniae infection.

Objective To investigate the effects of glutamine (Gln) on proliferation and survival of small cell lung cancer H446 cells, and further to explore the potential mechanism. Methods The proliferation of H446 cells was detected at different time points (0, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h) by CCK-8 assay in Gln (+) group and Gln (-) group, and an optimal time was selected. Under the optimal time, Annexin V-FITC/PI staining, CellTiter-Glo? assay kit and flow cytometer were used to detect cell survival, cellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Gln (-) group was used as the control group, under the condition of Gln deficiency, cellular ATP, cell proliferation and survival were detected after adding oxaloacetic acid (OAA) or dimethyl-α-ketoglutarate (DM-αKG). Gln (-) group was used as the control group, cellular ROS, cell proliferation, colony and survival were detected after treated with ROS scavenger N- acetyl cysteine (NAC). With different concentrations (0, 2, 5, 10 μmol/L) of glutaminase inhibitor BPTES, the optimal concentration was selected through the colony assay. The cellular ATP and ROS levels and cell proliferation were detected under the optimal concentration. H446 cells were treated with bis-2-(5-phenylacetamido-1,2,4-thiadiazol-2-yl) ethyl sulfide (BPTES), ROS inducer hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or the combination of them, and cell survival ratio was compared between two groups. Results The proliferation levels of H446 cells at 24, 48, which were decreased most significantly in 72 h in Gln (-) group. When 72 h was used as the optimal time, the cell survival ratio and ATP level were decreased, and the ROS level was increased, in Gln (-) group compared with those of Gln (+) group (P<0.05). There was a higher survival ratio in H446 cells in Gln (-)+OAA group and Gln (-)+DM-αKG group than that of Gln (-) group (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences in cell proliferation and ATP levels between Gln (-) group, Gln (-)+OAA group and Gln (-)+DM-αKG group. The ROS level was reduced, the cell proliferation, colony level and survival ratio were increased in Gln (-)+NAC group compared with those of Gln (-) group (P<0.05). Cloning assay showed that 10μmol/L was the optional concentration. Under this concentration, the proliferation and ATP level were decreased in Gln(+)+BPTES group (P<0.05), and cellular ROS level was up-regulated compared with Gln(+) group. The survival ratio was significantly lower in BPTES+H 2O2 group compared with BPTES (+) group or H2O2 (+) group. Conclusion Glutamine deficiency inhibits the proliferation and survival ratio of H446 cells through enhancing ROS level. BPTES and H2O2 show synergistically inhibitory effect on the survival of H446 cells.

Objective:To compare the effect of systematic nursing in operating room and routine nursing in reducing intraoperative stress injury in patients with spinal fracture and spinal cord injury.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 285 patients with cervical or thoracolumbar fracture associated with spinal cord injury admitted to Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2018 to December 2019, including 168 males and 127 females, with the age of 38-59 years [(47.8±8.5)years]. All patients underwent posterior decompression and fusion with internal fixation. Of all, 138 patients received systematic nursing in operating room including systematic evaluation and management before, during and after operation (observation group), and 147 patients received routine nursing including only intraoperative preventive care of pressure ulcer (control group). The incidence of pressure injury on the day after operation, degree of injury and location of injury at postoperative 3 days, and area of injury on the day after operation and at postoperative 3 days were compared between the two groups. The degree of injury was evaluated using the new stress injury staging assessment published by the American National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP).Results:The incidence of pressure injury in observation group [5.1% (7/138)] was lower than that in control group [12.2% (18/147)] on the day after operation ( P<0.05). The incidence of stage I, stage II, and stage III pressure injury in observation group [2.9% (4/138), 2.2% (3/138), 0.0%] was also lower than that in control group [8.2% (12/147), 3.4% (5/147), 0.6% (1/147)] at postoperative 3 days ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of pressure injury in the knee, chest, face and anterior superior iliac spine between the two groups ( P>0.05). The total proportion of pressure injury in the face and anterior superior iliac spine was 71% (5/7) in observation group, showing no significant difference from that in control group [83% (15/18)] ( P>0.05). The area of injury was (3.2±1.2)cm 2 and (3.2±1.1)cm 2 in observation group on the day after operation and at postoperative 3 days, lower than that in in control group [(5.1±1.5)cm 2 and (5.1±1.4)cm 2] ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Compared with the routine nursing, systematic nursing in operating room can significantly reduce the incidence, degree and area of intraoperative pressure injury in patients with spinal fracture accompanied by spinal cord injury, and deserves clinical promotion.

Objective:To develop the anti-CD30 monoclonal antibody 64Cu-1, 4, 7-trizacyclononane-1, 4, 7-triacetic acid (NOTA)-CD30 and visualize CD30 expression in lymphoma non-invasively. Methods:The CD30 expression levels of 5 cell lines (Karpas299, Raji, Daudi, Ramos, and U266) were assessed by Western blot. Cell lines with high and low CD30 expression were selected for flow cytometry to evaluate the specific binding affinity of anti-CD30 monoclonal antibody. Thirteen NSG mice were used to established CD30 positive and negative subcutaneous xenograft models. 64Cu-NOTA-CD30 was obtained and 64Cu-NOTA-immunoglobulin (Ig)G was used as the control. ImmunoPET imaging was performed 2, 24, and 48 h after the injection of 64Cu-NOTA-CD30 or 64Cu-NOTA-IgG. Finally, the biodistribution studies were conducted. Repeated-measures analysis of variance and Bonferroni test were conducted for comparison. Results:Karpas299 showed the highest CD30 expression, while Raji showed the lowest. Flow cytometry showed specific binding affinity of the anti-CD30 monoclonal antibody to the Karpas299 cell line. The radiochemical purities of the probes were both higher than 95%. In microPET, the 64Cu-NOTA-CD30 uptake of Karpas299 xenograft tumors increased over time, with (11.46±0.58), (17.60±1.16) and (19.46±0.99) percentage activity of injection dose per gram of tissue (%ID/g) at 2, 24 and 48 h respectively. The contrast to normal tissue was good at 48 h, with the tumor/heart (blood) ratio of 2.20±0.22. The uptake of 64Cu-NOTA-CD30 in Karpas299 tumor at 48 h after injection was significantly higher than that in Raji tumor ((6.10±1.03) %ID/g) and 64Cu-NOTA-IgG in Karpas299 tumor ((5.12±0.89) %ID/g; F=290.99, t values: 19.65 and 22.25, all P<0.001). The uptake of 64Cu-NOTA-CD30 and the control probe in the heart and liver decreased over time in all groups. Ex vivo biodistribution at 48 h was mainly consistent with the results of microPET in vivo. Conclusions:64Cu-NOTA-CD30 is able to visualize the expression level and distribution of CD30 non-invasively. It is promising to be applied for screening the beneficial groups and evaluating efficacy for CD30-targeted immunotherapy.
