Objective · To compare the prevalence of tobacco advertisement before and after implementation of the new edition of Advertising Law of the People's Republic of China and evaluate the effects of implementation of the new Advertising Law. Methods · Tobacco sales places, public places, and streets in Shanghai were randomly selected to observe tobacco advertisement and complete the survey. The survey was carried out in 10 districts of Shanghai in June 2015 with 10 tobacco sales places selected in each district, and in 4 districts of Shanghai in June 2016 with 25 tobacco sales places selected in each district. Sales places included convenient stores, tobacco stores, supermarkets, and kiosks. In addition, public transport waiting points, public transport vehicles, hospitals, shopping centers, restaurants, bars, and Internet cafes were selected into survey in 2016. Results · In 2016, the proportion of tobacco sales places having tobacco advertisement was lower than that in 2015, but the proportion of tobacco promotion behaviors was higher. In 2016, 128 public places and streets were investigated and only 1 had outdoor tobacco advertisement. Conclusion · The new edition of Advertising Law has significant effect on controlling tobacco advertisement, but tobacco sales places still have tobacco advertisement with various disguised promotion forms. Tobacco sales places have diversified business styles and minors often enter these places. It is recommended that a clear definition of disguised forms of tobacco advertisement should be made, tobacco advertisement at tobacco sales places needs to be supervised, the release of tobacco advertisement should be strictly reviewed, and existing tobacco advertisement should be severely punished, so as to prevent minors from exposing to tobacco advertisement and information luring smoking.

Objective To study the prevalence of HIV-1 drug-resistant strains in antiretroviral therapy-naive HIV-1 infectors,and provide background information for HIV-1 drug resistance survey and clin-ical antiretroviral therapy in Beijing in 2008. Methods Referring to the guidelines for HIV drug resistance threshold survey(HIVDR-TS) of WHO, collecting 60-70 plasma samples of HIV-1 infectors who were detec-ted in 6 months and not more than 25 years,we detected HIV-1 pol genotype and genetic mutations associated with drug resistance,counted the prevalence of drug-resistant strains, and evaluated the prevalent level. Re-Sults Of 61 plasma samples answering for the standards, 50 were successfully sequenced and genotyped pol sequence. The major infection route was homosex, which accounted for 62%. B, CRF01_AE, and CRF07_ BC were major genetic subtype, which accounted for 42%, 28% and 26%, respectively. One Pl-resistant strain was found, the incidence of which was 2% (1/50). One NRTI-resistant strain was found, the inci-dence of which was 2% (1/50). No NRTI-resistant strain was found, the incidence of which was 0. The in-cidence of drug-resistant strains in the protease (PR) region was 2%, and the incidence of reverse tran-scriptase (RT) region was also 2%. Both of the prevalence were classified as low level ( <5% ). Conclu-sion PR, RT-resistant HIV-1 strains were found in drug-naive infectors, and the prevalence was low in Beijing. Current antiretrovirai therapy regiments were still feasible. Most of the AIDS patients did not need to test drug resistance before antiretroviral therapy.

Objectiye To investigate the expression of regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) and occluding in brain, and investigate the role of expression of RANTES in the change of blood-brain barrier permeability of rats with acute pancreatitis. Methods 49 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 7 groups according to random number table, including sham-operated group (SO) , acute edematous pancreatitis (AEP) 3, 6 h group and acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) 3, 6, 12 and 24 h group. AEP and ANP were induced by retrograde injection of 0. 5% and 5% sodium taurocholate, respectively. RT-PCR, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry methods were performed to assess the expression of RANTES and occludin mRNA and protein in brain tissue. Results The RANTES mRNA expressions in SO, AEP 3, 6 h, ANP 3, 6, 12, 24 h group were 0, 0, 0, 0.36±0.05, 0.47±0.04, 0.65±0.05, 0.83±0.07, respectively; The RANTES protein expressions were 0, 0, 0, 0.42±0. 03, 0. 57±0.04,0.78±0.08, 1.05±0.08, respectively; the values in ANP group were significantly lower than those in SO group and AEP group (P<0.01). The occludin mRNA expressions were 1.21±0.07,1.17±0.07, 1.15±0.08,0.84±0.07,0.77±0.05,0.64±0.09,0.56±0.09, respectively, the occludin protein expressions were 1.18 ±0.08, 1. 16 ±0. 10, 1. 11 ±0. 10, 0. 90 ±0. 03, 0. 65 ±0."05, 0.57 ±0.05, 0.48 ±0.05, respectively, the values in ANP group were significantly lower than those in SO group and AEP group (P< 0.01). The expression of RANTES was positively related to the pancreatic pathologic score (r = 0. 936,P< 0. 001) ; the expression of occluding was negatively related to the pancreatic pathologic score (r = - 0. 943, P < 0.001). The expression of RANTES was negatively related to the expression of occluding (r = -0. 943, P <0. 001). Conclusions The expression of RANTES was progressively increased in the brain tissue in rats with ANP, while the expression of occluding was progressively decreased; RANTES may play an important role in the change of blood-brain barrier permeability via down-regulating the expression of occluding.
