Objective To evaluate the dynamic changes of T lymphocyte subsets in children with hand-foot-and-mouth disease(HFMD)and to provide new evidence for the therapy and prognosis.Methods Peripheral venous blood samples of 346 HFMD cases in acute stage who were hospitalized in Beijing Ditan Hospital from May 1,2008 to August 31,2008 were collected and T lymphocyte subsets were assayed by flow cytometer.Meanwhile,T lymphocyte subsets of 67 HFMD cases in recovery phase were also detected.The pathogens were determined by reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)using pharynx swab samples from 99 cases.Different samples were compared by independent-sample t test,paired t test or variance analysis.Results The average levels of T lymphocyte subsets of HFMD children in different agc groups were all lower than reference levels of healthy children in according age groups.In severe cases.T lymphocyte(TL)/lymphocyte (L)ratio in all age groups,helper T cell(Th)/L ratio in children older than 1 year,TL,Th and Th/suppressor T cell(Ts)ratio in children of 1-2 years old were all lower than those in common eases (P＜0.05).The Th/L ratio tended to increase with the disease progression.Ratios of TL/L and Th/L in common cases were increased in recovery phase(TL/L:56.3±8.6 vs 61.1±9.1,t=2.56,P＜0.05;Th/L:30.2±7.2 vs 34.9±7.9,t=2.90,P＜0.05)and all indices of severe cases except Ts/Lratio and Th/Ts ratio increased apparently in recovery phase(P＜0.01).TL[(1.738±0.976)×10~6/Lvs(2.696±1.946)×10~6/L,t=2.17,P＜0.05],Th/L ratio(25.9±7.0 vs 30.2±7.2,t=2.34,P＜0.05),Th[(0.864±0.550)×10~6/L vs(1.459±0.879)×10~6/L,t=2.90,P＜0.01]and L[(3.352±1.458)×10~6/L vs(4.664±2.435)×10~6/L,t=2.32,P＜0.05]of severe cases in acute phase were all lower than those of common cases(P＜0.05),while those were not significantly different in recovery phase between two groups(P＞0.05).The T lymphocyte subsets of enterovirus(EV)71 positive cases were lower than EVT1 negative cases,but there was no significant difference between these two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion T lymphocyte immune responses may be correlated with HFMD onset and progression.

The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of nardosinone (Nar) on neuronal injury induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) in primary cortical cultures isolated from embryos at gestational day 14. MTT method was used to determine the dosage regimen of Nar in primary neuronal cultures and observe the influence of Nar on the neurons suffering OGD; Western blotting analysis was used to detect expressions of protein kinase A (PKA), Ras related protein 1 (Rap1), mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1 (MEK1) and phospho-extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (p-ERK1/2) of OGD-injured or uninjured primary cultured neurons after Nar treatment. Results showed that Nar (50 and 100 micromol x L(-1)) improved the cell viability during OGD damage (P < 0.01) and increased the expression of PKA, Rap1, MEK1 and p-ERK1/2 in injured neurons. Additionally, elevations of PKA, Rapl, MEK1 and p-ERK1/2 in uninjured neurons were caused by Nar (50, 100 and 200 micromol x L(-1)) with a dose-dependent tenclency as well (P < 0.01). In conclusion, Nar could protect against the neuronal injury exposed to OGD, which may be relevant to the promotion of PKA and ERK signaling pathway.

Objective To monitor the evaluation of heparin dose in activated clotting time (ACT) during PCI perioperation,and explore its application in clinical care.Methods Totally 327 patients with coronary angiography,PTCA and stent implantation,using heparin to anticoagulating simultaneously in conduit room of the 306th Hospital of PLA from April 2014 to April 2015.By ACT monitoring and preoperative nursing visit,we collected patients' risk factors,and made operation plans;patients were assigned to five groups by the stage of age,and ten year-old was taken as a stage.ACT was closely observed in the operation,and the risk situation of patients was also observed;after operation,specific guidance was taken.Results There were patients with substandard ACT in each group after operation,and needed additional heparin.71 cases of patients with preoperative application of tirofiban,their postoperative ACT were within the target range 200-250 s;among 256 patients without preoperative application of tirofiban,there were 41 patients whose ACT value does not reach the required target value and needed additional heparin,wherein the incidence rate of substandard VCT value of 55-64 year-old group was the highest and was 20％.Eight cases without preoperative application of tirofiban,had sheath pipe pulled out because of errhysis in femoral artery sheath pipe puncture after operation,but their VCT value was within the target range of target value.All patients had no intraoperative and postoperative stroke,bleeding and thrombosis,etc.Conclusions ACT monitoring and effective coordination of care,can ensure the safety of heparin used in interventional procedures.

Objective:To investigate the trademark registration situation of grade-A tertiary hospitals in China, so as to analyze the current situation of hospital brand protection and explore suggestions for hospital brand protection.Methods:The top 50 hospitals ranked in the 2021 National Hospital Comprehensive Ranking by the Hospital Management Research Institute of Fudan University, excluding military hospitals, were selected as the sample hospitals. The trademark registration information of the 50 sample hospitals was queried through the China Trademark Website of the Trademark Office of China National Intellectual Property Administration on March 15, 2023, and the registration of the full name, abbreviation, hospital emblem and other trademarks of the hospitals was counted. Results:Among the 50 sample hospitals, 26 hospitals already held hospital brand trademarks, which meant that at least one of the hospital′s full name, abbreviation, and emblem was registered as a trademark, accounting for 52%; 7 hospitals did not hold any trademarks, accounting for 14%; 17 hospitals held other trademarks but did not hold hospital brand trademarks, accounting for 34%. Among the 26 hospitals that already held brand trademarks, 11 hospitals only registered in one category. There were 3 hospitals with expired registered trademarks.Conclusions:Nearly half of the sample hospitals did not hold hospital brand trademarks, indicating that the trademark registration and brand protection of tertiary hospitals in China need to be strengthened. It is suggested to establish a hospital brand protection system, clarify the trademark management department, standardize the responsibilities of trademark management, and improve the use of trademarks, so as to do a good job in hospital trademark registration and brand protection.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an acute or chronic autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of pathogenic autoantibodies and immune complexes, and multiorgan damage. It is a highly heterogeneous disease and commonly developed in women of childbearing age. The cause of systemic immunopathological injury in SLE is due to the production of autoantibodies by overactivated autoreactive B cells. The treatment of SLE by targeting B cells is very effective, suggesting the critical role of B cells in the development and progression of SLE. However, the current B cell depletion therapies all target the total B cell population, which are not capable of clearing specifically autoreactive B cells since the specific marker molecules and the mechanisms associated with the development of SLE remain unclear. With the development of science and technology, high-throughput sequencing technology provides new ideas for the study of B cell abnormalities in SLE. This review focuses on the progress in high-throughput sequencing to reveal new abnormalities in B cell receptors, new B cell subsets and B cell-related novel therapeutic targets, hoping to provide reference for better understanding the pathogenesis and exploring therapeutic strategies.

Purpose: This study explored the association of the elasticity modulus and shear wave velocity (SWV) of the tibialis anterior muscle, as measured by two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE), with the intracompartmental pressure (ICP) determined using the Whitesides method in a New Zealand rabbit model of acute compartment syndrome (ACS). Additionally, it evaluated the viability of 2D-SWE as a noninvasive, quantitative tool for the early detection of ACS. Methods: An ACS model was established through direct external compression by applying pressure bandaging to the lower legs of 15 New Zealand rabbits using neonatal blood pressure cuffs. Another five animals represented a non-modeled control group. To measure the elasticity modulus and SWV of the tibialis anterior muscles, 2D-SWE was employed. Blood oxygen saturation, serum creatine kinase (CK), and myoglobin levels were monitored. Subsequently, the anterior tibial compartment was dissected, and the tibialis anterior was removed for hematoxylin and eosin staining to assess muscle injury. Results: The elasticity modulus and SWV of the tibialis anterior muscle increased with compression duration, as did serum CK and myoglobin levels. ICP was strongly positively correlated with these parameters, particularly mean velocity (r=0.942, P<0.001) and CK (r=0.942, P<0.001). Blood oxygen saturation was negatively correlated with ICP (r=-0.887, P<0.001). Histological analysis indicated progressive muscle cell swelling over time, with damage transitioning from reversible to irreversible and culminating in necrosis. Conclusion In a rabbit ACS model, ICP was strongly positively correlated with muscle elasticity modulus/SWV. Consequently, 2D-SWE may represent a novel tool for assessing early-phase ACS.
