Pseudorabies is an important infectious disease for many kinds of livestock and wild animals, and causes important economics losses for pig industry. Many kinds of vaccines including attenuated live viruses or inactivated are widely used for vaccination of pigs and other animals. In the present review, research advances on pseudorabies new-type vaccines such as subunit vaccine, DNA vaccine, recombination vaccine, deletion-mutant vaccine is presented and point out the further development of the vaccine.

A set of primers amplified the VP1 gene of foot-and-mouth disease vims (FMDV) was designed and synthesized. A reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique detected the RNA of FMDV was established after selecting the best purification method, reagents and reaction conditions. Samples of fresh milk, lymph node, spinal cord, vesicular skin, milk powder, cotton swab, mouse and meat in daughter-house were detected by RT-PCR, positive rates were41.4% (24/58), 13.33% (2/15), 20% (1/5), 100% (1/1), 100% (1/1), 37.5% (12/32), 100% (2/2) and 10% - 70%, respectively. However, positive rate of cockroach detected by RT-PCR was 0. The results showed that the established FMDV RT-PCR technique provided a more sensitive, specific and reliable method for diagnosis and epizootic study of the foot-and-mouth disease.

OBJECTIVETo explore the therapeutic efficacy and safety of batroxobin in patients with primary hepatic carcinoma (PHC) and the advantages of transcatheter arterial perfusion of batroxobin combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE).

METHODS40 patients with PHC were randomized into experimental group (transcatheter arterial perfusion of batroxobin combined with TACE treatment, 20 patients) and control group (TACE alone group, 20 patients). The patients were followed up and the data were recorded, compared and analyzed.

RESULTS(1) Compared with the control group, the FIB level in the experimental group was significantly decreased at the first month after treatment (P < 0.05). (2) The baseline of the tumor was shortened in both groups after the treatment. There was a significant difference between the two groups at different time intervals (P < 0.05). (3) After the treatment, there was a significant difference of PFS levels between the two groups (t = 2.877, P < 0.05).(4) The incidence of metastasis were 5.0% (1/20) in both groups at 6 months after treatment, and that after one year was 10.0% (2/20) in the experimental group and 25.0% (5/20) in the control group. However, the difference was not significant (chi(2) = 0.693, P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONBatroxobin can rapidly and effectively decrease the FIB level. Therefore it may be used as an effective and safe adjuvant drug for the the treatment of primary hepatic carcinoma. Transcatheter arterial perfusion of batroxobin combined with TACE therapy has advantages in comparison with TACE alone. It could be taken as a new therapeutic regimen in the PHC treatment.

It has need to separate red blood cells (RBC) from marrow graft in ABO group unmatched BMT and auto-BMT with purging tumor cells, the separating effect of methylcellulose was observed. The mixture of 0.5% methylcellulose and bone marrow was laid up in an open transfusion system, and then sedimentation of RBC was performed in the transfusion tube. The separating results of 18 marrow grafts showed that the recovery rates of mononuclear cells and CD34(+) cells were (83.8 +/- 55.2)% and (90.3 +/- 7.2)%, respectively. RBC residual rate was (4.3 +/- 1.5)%. The yield of CFU-GM was (60.8 +/- 22.4)/2 x 10(5) MNC, and there was no difference to [(69.8 +/- 23.4)/2 x 10(5) MNC] yielded from same marrow samples, separated by Ficoll-Hypaque separation. It is concluded that this method could be used for bone marrow transplantation.

Objective To investigated the related factors which affecting the severity degrees of post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD) in trailsferred casualty after Wenchuan Earthquake.Methods Taking PTSD symptoms self-assessment scale(PCL-C) to involve 386 wounded who sufiered 40 days after the earthquake disaster,from 11 hospitals and were transferred to Chongqing city.Multi-stage cluster sampling method was used.354 valid questionnaires were recovered to explore the relevant factors affecting the severity on the symptoms of PTSD.Results This survey contains 354 subjects,with male 154(43.6%),female 200(56.4%),age 43.76±21.22,nation alities:Han people 236(66.7%),Qiang people 114(32.2%),others4(1.1%),and marriage status as unmarried 92(26.1%),married 253(71.7%),others 9(2.2%).The wounded women PTSD have more seriotis symptoms than men,and there were differences between them in repeated and disturbing dreams of this stressful experience(t=2.46,P=0.014),a strong sense of psychological suffering annoyance (t=2.02,P=0.044),having difficulty concentrating(t=2.04,P=0.042),being"super-alert"(t=2.465,P=0.014) etc,also in the total scores(t=2.489.P=0.013)(P<0.05).The PTSD symptoms of wounded degree in who had been buried in Earthquake were more serious than those not been buried.There were significant difierences between them in the iterns as:avoid thinking about or talking about a stressful experience(t=2.661,P=0.008),avoid activities or situations that could fecall the stressful experience(t=2.705,P=0.007),trouble remembering important parts of a stressful experience (t=2.775,P=0.006),feeling emotionally numb or being unable to have loving feelings for those close to you(t=3.017,P=0.003),feeling as if your future will somehow be cut short(t=2.979,P=0.003) and total scores(t=3.175,P=0.002).The wounded that witnessed someone be buried or died in earthquake,in PTSD symptoms,were more serious than those without.In the items of feeling distant or cut off from other people,feeling emotionally numb or being unable to have loving feelings for those close to you,feeling irritable or having angry outbursts, there were significant difference(P<0.05-0.01).There were significant difrerences among the average score of the three core symptoms(F=3.350,P<0.001),among the three core symptoms as well as between the three core symptoms and total score respectively.Conclusion There were differences in the severity degrees of PTST in transferred casualty under difrerent exposed conditions.Correlations were also found between each of the symptoms.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy and safety of tiotropium in treatment of severe persistent asthma.

METHODSReports of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) describing tiotropium for treatment of severe persistent asthma published from January 1946 to February 2015 were searched in Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, PubMed, Ovid Medline, CNKI, and CSJD. The data of the included RCTs were extracted and the data quality was evaluated. Meta-analyses were performed with Revman 5.3 software.

RESULTSFive RCTs including 1433 patients were analyzed. Meta-analysis of the data showed that compared with the placebo group, tiotropium treatment significantly improved the patients' peak forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) [weighted mean difference (WMD): 0.13 L, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.10-0.16 L, P<0.00001], trough FEV1 (WMD: 0.09 L, 95%CI: 0.06-0.12 L, P<0.00001), peak forced vital capacity (FVC) (WMD: 0.10 L, 95%CI: 0.06-0.14 L, P<0.00001), trough FVC (WMD: 0.12 L, 95%CI: 0.08-0.17 L, P<0.00001), morning peak expiratory flow (PEF) (WMD: 9.21 L/min, 95%CI: 4.2-14.23 L/min, P=0.0003), evening PEF (WMD: 22.06 L/min, 95%CI 13.05-31.08 L/min, P<0.00001). The scores of asthma control questionnaire (ACQ) (WMD: 0.01, 95% CI: -0.07-0.09, P=0.86) or asthma quality of life questionnaire (AQLQ)(WMD: 0.06, 95% CI:-0.18-0.06, P=0.33) were not affected by tiotropium. No significant difference with adverse events between tiotropium group and placebo group were reported in these included studies (P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONSTiotropium for severe persistent asthma treatment can improve FEV1, FVC, and PEF but may not improve the quality of life of the patients. Tiotropium is well tolerated and can be an add-on therapy for severe persistent asthma.

OBJECTIVETo summarize the clinical features of diffuse panbronchiolitis (DPB).

METHODWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 35 patients who had been admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from December 1996 to July 2014 due to DPB,which was confirmed basing on the diagnostic criteria proposed in 1998 by a working group of the Ministry of Health and Welfare of Japan or histopathological examination.

RESULTSThe average age of these 35 patients (20 men and 15 women,with a sex ratio of 1.33 to 1) was (42.2<15.6) years,mainly distributed in the 40-49 age group. The average clinical history was (8.4<8.5) years. The main symptoms and signs of DPB included chronic cough (n=35,100%),copious purulent sputum production (n=31,88.6%),exertional dyspnoea (n=24,68.6%),end-inspiratory crackles (n=28,80.0%). Also,26 patients (74.3%) had a history of sinusitis. Cold agglutination test in 15 out of 15 patients were negative. Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Haemophilus influenza were isolated from 22 patients (73.3%,22/30),and 26 patients (83.9%,26/31) had hypoxemia. The mean values of forced expiratory volume in the first second/forced vital capacity,residua volume/total lung volume,maximum forced expiratory volume of 50% lung volume,and maximum forced expiratory volume of 25% lung volume were 60.5%,53.8%,25.9%,and 31.2%,respectively. The most common CT findings from this cohort of patients were bronchiectasis and bronchiolitis,with nodular shadows distributed in a centrilobular pattern. Finally,29 patients were misdiagnosed as other conditions such as pulmonary infection and bronchiectasis.

CONCLUSIONSDPB in Chinese populations have different presentations compared to that Japanese populations:for instance,the serum cold agglutination test always shows negative results,which is often inconsistent with the pathogens in sputum. DPB usually is misdiagnosed. Clinicians should take DPB into consideration when patients had pulmonary infection and sinusitis.
