OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the determining contents of 2 lignan components[dehydrodiisoeugenol and 2,3-dihydro-7-methoxy-2-(3,4-methylened ioxyphenyl)-3-methyl-5-(E)-propenyl-benzofuran(referred to“lignanoid 2”)]. METH-ODS:HPLC method was adopted. The column was Elite C18 with the mobile phase of water-methanol(gradient elution)at the flow rate of 1.0 ml/min;the detection wavelength was 225 nm and the column temperature was 30 ℃. The sample size was 20 μl. RE-SULTS:There was a good linear relationship between sample quantity and the peak area in the range of 0.202-2.02 μg(r=0.999 9) and 0.204-2.04 μg(r=0.999 9)for 2 lignan components. The RSD of precision,stability and repeatability tests were less than 2%with the average recovery of 101.54%(RSD=0.60%,n=6)and 99.43%(RSD=1.09%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,sensitive and accurate,and can be used for the quantization determination of dehydrodiisoeugenol and lignanoid 2 in nut-meg-5.

Objective To evaluate the correlation between ultrasonography and histopathology in acute lung injury of rats.Methods Twenty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group (4 rats) and experimental group (16 rats),in the experimental group acute lung injury models were step-by-step induced by oleic acid (OA) and sequentially by OA and lipopolysaccharide (LPS).After the end of each step of models,ultrasound examination was applied,and the rats were sacrificed to take the lung specimens to be observed.The ultrasonography and pathological results were analyzed,and the numbers of alveolar were counted under microscope (200 times).Results With the aggravation of acute lung injury,the sonographic findings showed unclear or disappeared pleural line,close-set of B-lines,and pulmonary consolidation with air bronchogram.For control group,the ultrasonographic score was 0.25 ± 0.50,lung injury pathological score was 0.50 ± 0.58,and the numbers of alveolar were 25 ± 3.For OA group,the ultrasonographic score was 2.86-± 1.35,lung injury pathological score was 6.28-± 0.76,and the numbers of alveolar were 10-± 2.For OA + LPS group,the ultrasonographic score was 5.83-± 2.32,lung injury pathological score was 9.83 ± 0.98,and the numbers of alveolar were 6-± 2.All 3 groups were significant different on ultrasonographic score,pathological score and alveolar counts (P < 0.01).Conclusions The ultrasonography image of acute lung injury of rats were positively correlated with its histopathological alteration.The ultrasonography can effectively evaluate the degree of acute lung injury of rats.

Objective To investigate the efficiency of ultrasound microbubble-mediated HGF gene transfer on liver fibrosis in rats. Methods The eukaryotic expression vector pMD18-T/HGF was constructed. The rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: normal group, model group, low dose group,middle dose group and high dose group. The rat liver fibrosis were induced. At day 14 after treatment, the rats were sacrificed, the ALT lever were evaluated, pathological evaluation of liver fibrosis were made,immunohistochemical evaluation of HGF protein expressions were observed, HGF mRNA expression were detected by RT-PCR. Results Liver 1function after the treatment showed that the treatment groups were better than model group ( P < 0. 05). The difference between low dose group and normal group showed significant difference ( P <0.05), and the difference between middle/high dose groups and normal group showed no significant ( P >0. 05). Pathological results showed that the treatment groups could reduce liver fibrosis;treatment groups had the positive HGF expression by immunohistochemistry and the expression level increased with the increasement of the treatment dose ( P <0.05). RT-PCR showed HGF mRNA expression in the treatment groups were higher than in model group ( P <0.05). Conclusions Ultrasound microbubbles which carrying HGF can inhibit the process of hepatic fibrosis.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiology of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) in Jiangsu province during SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in China from December 7, 2022 to January 27, 2023, and to analyze the influencing factors of all-cause death.Methods:It was a multi-center cross-sectional investigation. Structured questionnaire was used to collect patient information by medical staff of each hemodialysis center (room) as investigators. Part of the demography data and laboratory examination data came from the Jiangsu Province Hemodialysis Data Information System. MHD patients from hemodialysis centers (rooms) at all levels of medical institutions and independent hemodialysis institutions in Jiangsu province during the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 infection were included, and the clinical characteristics and all-cause mortality of confirmed and suspected cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection were analyzed.Results:Questionnaire surveys and data analysis on 57 278 patients in 407 hemodialysis centers (rooms) were completed, accounting for 90.41% of the total number of MHD patients (63 357 cases) in Jiangsu province during the same period. There were 24 038 cases (41.97%) of SARS-CoV-2 infection and 14 805 cases (25.85%) of suspected infection, which were widely distributed in all dialysis centers in Jiangsu province. After clinical classification of 38 843 confirmed and suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection cases, 3 662 cases were severe and critical cases, accounting for 9.43% of the infected and suspected cases. Among the patients who had completed the questionnaires, there were 1 812 all-cause deaths, with an all-cause mortality rate of 3.16%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that elderly (taking ≤50 years as a reference, 51-59 years: OR=1.583, 95% CI 1.279-1.933, P=0.001; 60-69 years: OR=3.972, 95% CI 3.271-4.858, P<0.001; 70-79 years: OR=7.236, 95% CI 5.917-8.698, P<0.001; ≥80 years: OR=11.738, 95% CI 9.459-14.663, P<0.001), male ( OR=1.371, 95% CI 1.229-1.529, P<0.001), and co-infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) (positive serum HBV surface antigen, OR=0.629, 95% CI 0.484-0.817, P<0.001) were independent influencing factors for all cause mortality. Receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve for male, age and current HBV infection prediction of all-cause death was 0.529 ( P<0.001), 0.724 ( P<0.001) and 0.514 ( P=0.042), respectively, and the cut-off value for age prediction of all-cause death was 65.5 years old. Compared with patients without HBV infection, MHD patients with HBV infection significantly reduced the proportion of severe and critically ill patients, all-cause hospitalizations and all cause deaths when infected with SARS-CoV-2 (4.99% vs. 6.41%, χ2=6.136, P=0.013; 8.90% vs. 11.44%, χ2=11.662, P<0.001; 2.01% vs. 3.37%, χ2=10.713, P=0.001, respectively). Conclusion:The MHD patients in Jiangsu province are susceptible to SARS-CoV-2. Elderly age and male gender are independent risk factors for death in MHD patients during the epidemic, while the HBV infection may be a protective factor for death of MHD patients infected with SARS-CoV-2.
