To investigate the protection effect of DNA vaccine in mammalian and avian systems, the DNA vaccine was inoculated in both BALB/c mice and SPF chickens immunized with DNA vaccines encoding hemagglutinin (HA) from A/Goose/GuangDong/1/96 (H5N1) virus. The mice and chickens were immunized twice, 3 weeks apart, by electroporation into muscles or intramuscular injection. Two weeks after the second immunization, the mice and chickens were challenged with a lethal dose of homologous virus. The mice and chickens immunized by electroporation obtained completely protection against the virus, and could effectively inhibited viruses to replicating in mouse lung and chicken cloaca. At the same time, these protections were companied by high levels specific antibody to H5N1 AIV, while the blank plasmid controls experience 100 percent mortality following challenge. Furthermore, in the experiment of mice by eletroporation,stronger obviously CTL activity were observed after challenge. Thus, the cellular immune responses of the mice immunized by electroporation were exhibited. These results strongly demonstrate that HA DNA vaccines provide effective protection against influenza virus infection in mammalian and avian, and suggest that electroporation is one of the efficient gene delivery systems for the transfer of influenza DNA vaccine in both humoral immunity and cellular immunity.

BACKGROUNDTo study the association between psychosocial factors and the development of lung cancer.
METHODSCase-control matched study was employed in the study. A standardized life event, social support and defense mechanisms interview was administered respectively. Total 118 lung cancer patients who were diagnosed pathologically were chosen as case group, and 118 matched healthy people were as control group. The pair had the same gender, the same race, and the same occupation, and lived in the same area, and the age difference between the two groups was ±3 years.
RESULTSUnivariate analysis showed that smoking, defect of sleeping, alcohol consuming, smoking and drinking during meal, preserved food consuming, irregularity of life increased the risk of lung cancer development (P < 0.05). The scores of life events, social support had no significant difference between two groups (P > 0.05), but the scores of stress life events was higher in cancer group than that in control group. The immature factors of defense mechanisms in cancer group were higher than those in control group (P < 0.05). Multiple qualified logistic regression showed that smoking and defect of sleeping were the main risk factors of lung cancer genesis.
CONCLUSIONSThere is certain association between psychosocial factors and lung cancer development. The immature defensive factor is the psychosocial factor of lung cancer genesis, and smoking, defect of sleeping, alcohol consuming, smoking and drinking during meal, preserved food consuming, irregularity of life are the risk factors of lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and their clinical significance. Methods Peripheral blood and brain tissue samples were obtained from 60 TBI patients. According to the GCS score, 60 TBI patients were divided into the moderate damage group, the severe damage group and the especially severe damage group. According to the different time points after the injury, the patients were divided into <6 hours group, 6-24 hours group, 24-72 hours group and >72 hours group. The 60 control brain tissue samples were obtained from patients with cerebral aneurysms and undergoing craniotomy at the same time; and control peripheral blood were collected from 60 healthy people. The levels of HIF-1α were measured with RT-PCR and Western blot . One-way ANOVA and t-test were used to analyze the results with SPSS 18.0. Results The expression of HIF-1α in the control group [peripheral blood: HIF-1α mRNA (0.35±0.12), HIF-1α protein (0.28±0.06) ;brain tissue: HIF-1α mRNA (0.65±0.08),HIF-1α protein (0.78±0.08)] was obviously lower than those in the TBI groups, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Along with the damage degree aggravating, the expression of HIF-1α was increased. The expression of HIF-1α in the especially severe damage group was statistically higher than those of the severe damage group and the moderate damage group (P<0.05). The expression of HIF-1α was increased along with the extension of time after the injury. The expression of HIF-1α in the 24-72 h group was significantly higher than those of the >72 h group, 6-24 h group and <6 h group (P<0.05). Conclusions The expression of HIF-1α is closely related to the severity of TBI and may play an important role in the progress of TBI.

Objective:To investigate the outcomes of periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) through modified Smith-Petersen or Bikini approach with an auxiliary posterolateral incision for developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH).Methods:85 patients (97 hips) who underwent PAO through modified Smith-Petersen or Bikini approach with auxiliary posterolateral incision for DDH in the 920th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force of Chinese People's Liberation Army or the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2016 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 70 females and 15 males, with an average age of 28.6±8.4 years (12-49). According to the Hartofilakidis classification, all patients were classified as type Ⅰ. There were 77 hips classified as Grade 0 and 20 hips classified as Grade 1 according to the T?nnis classification. The X-ray evaluation including the lateral central edge angle (LCEA), t?nnis angle (TNS) and anterior central edge angle (ACEA), visual analogue score (VAS) and modified Harries hip score (mHHS) were recorded preoperatively and during each postoperative follow-up. The cumulative sum (CUSUM) method was used to fit the learning curves of operation time.Results:All patients were followed-up with an average of 52.7±18.9 months (21 to 84). The average operative time and intraoperative blood loss were 95.9±28.2 min (65 to 215) and 414.7±97.0 ml (250 to 900), respectively. The learning curve of operation time was 10 cases. The average LCEA 32.39° (30.29°, 34.92°), TNS 3.14° (1.56°, 5.67°) and ACEA 31.55° (29.07°, 33.88°) were all significantly improved compared to preoperative values ( Z=-30.764, P<0.001; Z=30.595, P<0.001; Z=-38.134, P<0.001). The average VAS was reduced from 5.18±0.88 points preoperatively to 1.27±0.93 points postoperatively with significant difference ( t=51.231, P<0.001). The average mHHS was increased from 73.12±9.17 to 92.02±4.05 postoperatively with significant difference ( t=-26.902, P<0.001). No patients received total hip arthroplasty during the follow-up period. Conclusion:Bernese PAO through modified Smith-Petersen or Bikini approach with a small auxiliary posterolateral incision was not only a safe and effective method for the treatment of DDH but also shortened the learning curve and reduced difficulty of the surgery.

Objective:To observe any effect of ultrashortwave (USW) therapy on inflammatory cytokines and the MAPK pathway of rats with a spinal cord injury.Methods:Seventy-nine Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a control group ( n=35), an intervention group ( n=35) and a sham group ( n=9). Allen′s method was used to establish a contusion model of SCI in the rats of the control and intervention groups, while the sham group′s spinal tissues were exposed but not stricken. Beginning twenty-four hours after SCI modeling, the intervention group was given 7min of USW therapy daily, five days a week till the day of sacrifice for sampling the target area of spinal cord for tests. Then, motion function was evaluated using Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan (BBB) scoring. One, three and seven days after the SCI modeling, immunofluorescence and western blotting were employed to observe any changes in inflammatory factors and the MAPK pathway in the lesioned area. Results:Fourteen days after the modeling the average BBB score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group′s average. Moreover, 7 days after the modeling the average content of the domains containing protein 3 (NLRP3), interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-6 receptor and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in the target area of the spinal cord of sham group showed significantly lower levels than in the other 2 groups. And the levels in the intervention group were significantly lower than in the control group. Seven days after the modeling the number of cells positive for zinc finger protein 36 (TTP) in the lesioned area of the intervention group was significantly greater than among the control group. At the same time the levels of MAPK-activated protein kinase 2 (MK2), phosphorylated-mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated version (p-MK2) and TTP in the control and intervention groups were significantly higher than in the sham group. And there were significant differences between the intervention group and control group in the levels of MK2, p-MK2 and TTP.Conclusion:Ultrashortwave therapy can inhibit inflammation by regulating the MAPK inflammatory pathway, promoting the recovery of motion functions, at least in rats.
