Objective:To investigate the effects of pre-existing antibody on seroconversion rate after influenza vaccination.Methods:This study recruited 1 900 healthy volunteers to receive influenza split vaccines in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous region and Yunnan Province from September 2009 to October 2018. Hemagglutinin agglutination inhibition assay was used to detect the titers of specific antibodies in blood samples collected before vaccination and 28 d after vaccination and the effects of pre-existing antibody on the seroconversion to different influenza vaccine components were analyzed.Results:Trend analysis showed that with the increasing titer of pre-existing antibody, the seroconversion rates to A/H1N1, A/H3N2, B/Victoria and B/Yamagata vaccine components were gradually decreased (χ 2=121.76, P<0.001; χ 2=67.58, P<0.001; χ 2=45.25, P<0.001; χ 2=54.55, P<0.001). After adjusting for factors such as region, gender and age, multivariate logistic regression showed that pre-existing antibody titer equal to or higher than 40 was an independent factor that affected the seroconversion to A/H1N1, A/H3N2 and B/Victoria vaccine components, and the adjusted OR (95%CI) values were 2.50(2.00-3.13)、1.64(1.35-2.00) and 2.50(1.79-3.45), respectively. Conclusions:The seroconversion rate to each vaccine component was negatively correlated with the pre-existing antibody titer. The factor that pre-existing antibody titer equal to or higher than 40 was detrimental to the seroconversion to A/H1N1, A/H3N2 and B/Victoria vaccine components, but had no significant influence on B/Yamagata seroconversion.

Objective To provide better emergency and patient services in well-equipped comprehensive hospitals, the organization and wisdom therapeutic strategy are of great importance for the recovery of injured patients from the earthquake zone. Method From 12 May 2008, following the 8.0 Magnitude earthquake in Wenchuan county of Sichuan Province, six Chongqing hospitals with third class in grade A were involved in the rescue of the injured patients with great effort. A total of 533 patients were retreated and followed up from quake zone. All the patients were scored with ISS and AIS system. The profiles of the patients examined, operated and clinical infection investigation were documented. Results Of 533 patients, the number of the patients whose ISS is below 16 is 456 (83.6%), the number between 16 and 25 is 65 (12.2%), and the humor above 25 is 12 (2.3%). The patients were classfled based on their fracture parts as follows: head and neck (n = 42), face (n = 7), chest (n = 114), abdominal and cavitas pelvis (n =81), limb and pelvis (n =314), body surface (n =205), with 180 single fracture site, 139 of them being two combined fracture sites, and 114 of them being above three combined fracture sites. Thirty-two of the patients were suffered from amputation. The number of patients suffered from crushing syndrome reached 21, with 281 surgical operations in hospitals. Seventy-nine patients were suffered from infections including 87.3% of pre-hespital infections. The results from bacteria culture and antibiotic susceptibility showed that the infected bacteria mainly involved in Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus anreus, Staphylococcus haemolyticns, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Baumanii, Aerobacter cloacae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, C type chain coccus, Bacillus aerogenes capsulatus. The antibiotic susceptibility to diverse bacteria has no obvious changes and exists partial overlapping, and infected patients should be given the treatment of cephalosporin, macrolide antibiotic and so on. Conclusions For the emergency conditions after the catastrophe, the comprehensive hospitals must be prepared to meet large quantities of severe trauma and infection therapy. The scientific selection of antibiotics in the combinative therapy is of great importance to the enhancement of early specific treatment, prevention of severe trauma complications and rehabilitation of patients.
