Traditional sample entropy fails to quantify inherent long-range dependencies among real data. Multiscale sample entropy (MSE) can detect intrinsic correlations in data, but it is usually used in univariate data. To generalize this method for multichannel data, we introduced multivariate multiscale entropy into multiscale signals as a reflection of the nonlinear dynamic correlation. But traditional multivariate multiscale entropy has a large quantity of computation and costs a large period of time and space for more channel system, so that it can not reflect the correlation between variables timely and accurately. In this paper, therefore, an improved multivariate multiscale entropy embeds on all variables at the same time, instead of embedding on a single variable as in the traditional methods, to solve the memory overflow while the number of channels rise, and it is more suitable for the actual multivariate signal analysis. The method was tested in simulation data and Bonn epilepsy dataset. The simulation results showed that the proposed method had a good performance to distinguish correlation data. Bonn epilepsy dataset experiment also showed that the method had a better classification accuracy among the five data set, especially with an accuracy of 100% for data collection of Z and S.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of using recombinant infectious clones of hu-man coronavirus OC43 (HCoV-OC43) as a vector for the expression of exogenous genes and to analyze the insertion sites. Methods Based upon pBAC-OC43FL, a full-length cDNA infectious clone of HCoV-OC43, three recombinant expression plasmids ( pBAC-OC43-GFPΔNS2, pBAC-OC43-GFPΔNS12. 9 and pBAC-OC43-N-GFP) were respectively constructed by replacing NS2 and NS12. 9 genes with the reporter gene en-coding the green fluorescent protein ( GFP ) and inserting the reporter gene after the N gene by using the overlapping-PCR and in vitro ligation. Reverse genetics techniques were used for viral rescue. All of the res-cued virus strains were characterized by immunofluorescence assay ( IFA) and Western blot ( WB) assay af-ter transfecting BHK-21 cells with the recombinant viruses. Results Two recombinant viruses, OC43-GFPΔNS2 and OC43-GFPΔNS12. 9, could be successfully rescued by transfection the BHK-21 cells with pBAC-OC43-GFPΔNS2 and pBAC-OC43-GFPΔNS12. 9 plasmids. The expressed GFP was observed in BHK-21 cells transfected with pBAC-OC43-GFPΔNS2 or pBAC-OC43-GFPΔNS12. 9 plasmids, but not in the cells transfected with the pBAC-OC43-N-GFP plasmid. An efficient and stable expression of GFP was observed in the pBAC-OC43-GFPΔNS2 plasmid-transfected cells. The 10th generation of OC43-GFPΔNS2 virus was ob-tained after repeated freezing and thawing. The expression of GFP and N protein were detected in cells infec-ted with the OC43-GFPΔNS2 virus after 10 passages. Conclusion The NS2 gene of HCoV-OC43 could be used as a promising insertion site of the pBAC-OC43 FL infectious clone for the expression of exogenous genes. This study might provide a platform for further researches on the replication of HCoV-OC43 and the development of human coronavirus-based vectors.

Objective To study the expression of thymic stromal lymphopoietin(TSLP) and the activation of DCs in OVA-induced murine asthma model, and investigate the effects and underlying mecha-nisms of TSLP on lung inflammation. Methods Thirty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into control group, OVA group and TSLP neutralizing antibody treated group. The asthma model was evaluated by airway responsiveness and histological analysis of lung tissues ; The levels of TSLP mRNA in lungs were determined by quantitative real-time PCR; The expression of TSLP in lungs were determined by immunohistochemistry and Western blot; The expression of CD40, CD80, CD86 in BALF was detected by FACS. Results Both the histological analysis of lung tissues and the airway responsiveness were all consistent with the characteris-tic of murine asthma model. The expression of TSLP and TSLP mRNA in the OVA group was significantly in-creased compared with blank group. The expression of CD40, CD80, CD86 in BALF from OVA group was increased significantly compared with the control group. Furthermore, treating mice with TSLP neutralizing antibody reduced the expression of CD40, CD80, CD86 on dendritic cells, and IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 in the OVA group. Conclusion Our study indicate that TSLP was highly expressed in the bronchial epithelia of murine asthma model, via upregulation of CD40, CD80, CD86, induce DCs to active CD4~+ T cells and pro-duce type 2 responses, so that aggravating the lung inflammation of asthma. Blocking TSLP is capable of in-hibiting the production of Th2 cytokines, thus presents a promising strategy for the treatment of asthma.

Objective To investigate the incidence of and clinical factors influencing neonatal birth defects from different assisted reproductive technology. Methods Between October 1998 and December 2006,1271 newborns from mothers treated by in vitro fertilization techniques [ including in vitro fertilization (IVF), intracytoplasmic sperm injection (1CSI) and thaw embryo transfer (Thaw-ET) ] matched with 269 newborns from mothers treated by artificial insemination were enrolled in Reproductive Medicine Center in First Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University. Their medical information was analyzed retrospectively to compared neonatal characteristics, the incidence of birth defect and anomalous organs involved between in vitro fertilization group and artificial insemination group. Results In group of in vitro fertilization, those newborns with low birth weight from IVF, ICSI and Thaw-ET were 20. 0% ( 134/671 ), 22. 4% (92/410), 18.9% (36/190)respectively, which were more than 11.5% (31/269) cases in group of artifical semination with statistical significance (P < 0. 05 ). The rates of multiple pregnancy of 23.8% ( 160/671 ), 25.4% (104/410) ,21.1% (40/190) in subgroup of 1VF, ICSI and Thaw-ET were significantly higher than 10. 0% ( 27/269 ) in group of artifical insemination( P < 0. 05 ). The rate of macrosomia in group of in vitro fertilization was significantly lower than that of artificial insemination group (3.9% vs 8. 2%, P <0.05). However, the incidence of birth defect involved in various organs did not show significant difference between two groups ( P>0.05 ). Conclusions The incidence of multiple pregnancy demonstrated obviously increasing trends born with various In Vitro Fertilization techniques, which pave the way to high risk pregnancy. However, the incidence of newborn birth defect was not increased significantly. Thus, to lower occurrence of multiple pregnancy was the key approach to obtain neonates health.
