Objective To summarize the distribution of departments,conditions of diagnosis and treatment of the syphilis patients in the general hospitals,and thus to improve the level of diagnosis and treatment.Methods A retrospective analysis of epidemiology and clinical data of 282 cases with syphilis in recent 5 years were conducted. Results The ratio of male to female was about 1:1.9.Female showed a high incidence in the 21 -50 years old,aver-age (41.68 ±0.96)years old,but for male in the 41 -70 years old,average (53.25 ±1.59)years old.The cases combined with other infectious diseases accounted to 22.0 % (62/282).The cases from the department of obstetrics and gynecology were the most (106 cases),followed by surgery (86 cases)and internal medicine (49 cases).Only 23 cases showed the clinical manifestations of syphilis in the 79 cases,which must be treated.The test rate of TRUST was only 39.0% (110/282).Furthermore,it was very low for the rate of treatment and standard treatment. Conclusion Syphilis is the most in department of obstetrics and gynecology in general hospital,and it is also com-mon in the surgery and internal medicine.The most prominent problems are that the non-special doctors had weak awareness for definite diagnosis of syphilis,and the low rate of treatment and standard treatment.

Objective To explore the accuracy and practical significance of the 3-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the liver and the abdominal blood vessels based on the data of 64-slice spiral computerized tomography (64S-SCT). Methods The 2D images of the liver and the abdominal blood vessels were collected after TLC-scanning with 64S-SCT. The 3D images of the liver, hepatic internal duct system and the abdominal blood vessels were reconstructed by the medical image processing system. The volume of the 3D reconstructed liver was compared with that of the actual liver measured by the 64S-SCT, and the portal vein of the reconstructed liver model was compared with that reconstructed by the Mxview workstation based on the 64S-SCT data. Results The 3D models of the liver, hepatic internal duct system and abdominal blood vessels were vivid, and could be revolved and observed at any direction. The spatial relationship among main intrahepatic ducts was clearly displayed. The actual liver volume and the condition of the intrahepatic ducts were accurately demonstrated. The reconstructed liver, the branches of the hepatic artery and portal vein, and the abdominal blood vessels were simultaneously displayed by adjusting the transparency of the liver model. The portal vein of the reconstructed liver model completely matched that reconstructed by the Mxview workstation based on the 64S-SCT data. Conclusions The 3D models of the liver, hepatic internal duct system and abdominal blood vessels reflect the human anatomy structure, and provide reliable virtual organs and vessel system for virtual liver surgery.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of the changes in respiratory status on gated stereotactic radiotherapy under free breathing guided by real-time position management (RPM).Methods:This study simulated the baseline shift, change in respiratory rate, end-expiratory delay, end-inspiratory delay, and irregular breathing using an in-house developed motion phantom. Moreover, this study analyzed the correlation between the changes in the above states of three plans, three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy(3D-CRT), intensity modulated radiotherapy(IMRT), and volumetric modulated arc therapy(VMAT) and the position of the ball at the center of the motion phantom (L) and the exposed dose of the phantom in the ionization chamber (the dose).Results:The in-house developed phantom presented high setup repeatability and measurement stability. There was a positive correlation between L and the baseline shift ( r = 0.99, P < 0.01). The change in the dose was less than 4% when the baseline shift was less than the setup error, while the dose declined rapidly and was negatively correlated with the baseline shift otherwise ( r= -0.95, P < 0.01). Moreover, there was statistically significant difference in dose when the baseline shift exceeded the setup error or not ( Z = -3.06, P < 0.01). There was no significant difference in the rate of the dose affected by baseline shift in the three plans ( P > 0.05). The changes in respiratory rate had little effect on L and the dose. Both end-inspiratory delay and end-expiratory delay reduced the planned dose of the three plans, with a maximum decrease of up to -1.74%. Furthermore, the end-inspiratory delay has greater effects on the planned dose than the end-expiratory delay( Z = -2.67, P< 0.01). However, there was no significant correlation between the dose and the delay duration ( P > 0.05), and no significant difference in the rate of the planned dose of the three plans affected by respiratory waveform change ( P > 0.05). Irregular breathing had greater effects on the dose. Specifically, the dose from six repeated measurements of 3D-CR, IMRT, VMAT was (709.68±180.00), (751.40±127.16), and (750.00±185.60) cGy, respectively, all less than the prescribed dose with a poor consistency. Conclusions:The changes in the patients′ respiratory status will reduce the dose, especially when the baseline shift exceeds the setup error threshold or large respiratory waveform variation corresponding to irregular breathing occurs. Moreover, there is no correlation between the decrease in the dose and the radiotherapy technology.

Objective:
To construct the third generation chimeric antigen receptor based on a novel humanized anti-HER2 H1-2 scFv, and to investigate the specific cytotoxicity of H1-2 CAR modified T lymphocytes(CAR-T) against HER2+ tumor cells.
Method:
The expression cassette of the third generation CAR gene and anti-HER2 H1-2 scFv were constructed and cloned into lentivirus transfer plasmid, and then the third generation H1-2 CAR was transduced into human T lymphocytes using lentivirus.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the expression of cytokines IL2, and LDH release assay was used to detect the cytotoxic effect of the H1-2 CAR-T.Finally, NOD/SCID mice and HER2+ breast cancer cell line SKBR3 were used to detect the anti-tumor effect of H1-2 CAR-T in vivo.
Results:
The third generation H1-2 CAR was successfully constructed.H1-2 CAR-T secreted high dose of IL2 after confrontation with HER2+ breast cancer cells.In vitro, the cytolytic rate of H1-2 CAR-T on high expression HER2+ tumor cells was significantly higher than that in low expression HER2 or non-expression HER2 tumor cells. At the efficacy to target ratio of 20, the cytolytic rate of H1-2 CAR-T against breast cancer cell SK-BR-3 could reach (90.1±2.8)%, while the cytolytic rate of H1-2 CAR-T against HER2- breast cancer cell MDA-MB-231 was only (13.5±4.7)%. In the mouse xenograft tumor model, H1-2 CAR-T cells inhibited breast cancer growth in vivo.At the end of the experiments, the average tumor weight in the H1-2 CAR-T cell treatment group was (0.7±0.1) g, the non-transfected T cell therapeutic group was (1.2±0.2) g, and the PBS group was (1.2±0.2) g. There was significant difference between the H1-2 CAR-T therapeutic group and the non-transfected T cell therapeutic group (

Objective:To establish an animal model of pneumonia for research on clinical prevention and treatment of bacterial pneumonia by infecting immunocompromised rats with drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii ( Ab) strains. Methods:Drug-resistant Ab strains were selected. Forty-eight SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: normal group, cyclophosphamide control group (intraperitoneal injection of 45 mg/kg cyclophosphamide), bacterial infection group (intratracheal instillation of 1.5×10 8 CFU Ab suspension), and bacterial infection+ immunosuppression group (intraperitoneal injection of 45 mg/kg cyclophosphamide+ intratracheal instillation of 1.5×10 8 CFU Ab suspension). Flow cytometry analysis was used to detect the proportion of CD4 + , CD8 + and NK cells in rat peripheral blood before as well as 3 d and 7 d after infection. A lung function meter was used to detect peak inspiratory flow (PIF), peak expiratory flow (PEF), tidal volume (Vt ) and forced expiratory volume in the second second/forced vital capacity (FEV 200/FVC) at 3 d and 7 d after modeling. ELISA was used to detect the levels of IL-6, TNF-α and IL-10 in the alveolar lavage fluid. HE staining was used to observe the morphology of rat lung tissues in each group. Bacterial loads in rat lung tissues were counted by bacterial culturing. Results:A decrease in voluntary activity was observed in rats in the cyclophosphamide control group, bacterial infection group and bacterial infection+ immunosuppression group after modeling. Lung rales could be heard in the bacterial infection group and bacterial infection+ immunosuppression group. Compared with the normal group, the cyclophosphamide control group showed decreased proportion of CD4 + and CD11b + NK cells and increased CD8 + cells in peripheral blood; the bacterial infection group showed decreased PIF, PEF, Vt and FEV 200/FVC, increased IL-6 and TNF-α levels and decreased IL-10 level in the alveolar lavage fluid, and higher bacterial load in lung tissues with mild widening of alveolar walls and inflammatory cell infiltration ( P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the cyclophosphamide control group and the bacterial infection group, the bacterial infection+ immunosuppression group showed a lower proportion of CD4 + cells and a higher proportion of CD8 + cells in rat peripheral blood, decreased PIF, PEF, Vt and FEV 200/FVC, increased IL-6 and TNF-α levels and decreased IL-10 level in alveolar lavage fluid, higher bacterial load in lung tissues, and aggravated widening of alveolar walls and inflammatory cell infiltration ( P<0.05, P<0.01). The proportion of CD11b + NK cells in peripheral blood of rats in the bacterial infection+ immunosuppression group was significantly lower than that in the bacterial infection group ( P<0.05, P<0.01). Conclusions:A bacterial pneumonia model was successfully constructed by infecting rats with Ab alone or in combination with cyclophosphamide immunosuppression. In the model constructed with Ab and cyclophosphamide immunosuppression, the rats had more severe pneumonia, which might be related to the reduced cellular immune function and the aggravated bacterial infection in rat lung tissues by cyclophosphamide.
