Objective To generate HLA - A * 0201 and A * 2403 restricted HBcAg - specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) clones. Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were derived from a HLA - A * 0201/2403 - positive patient with chron- ic hepatitis B . PBMCs were stimulated respectively using two synthetic peptides( HBc18 ～ 27 and HBc 117 ～ 125) , and epitope -specific CTL clones were generated by limiting dilution technique with PHA alone or combined with synthetic peptides. The cell clones were then characterized by IF staining,FCM and LDH release. Results After 2 weeks of in vitro stimulating PBMCs, specific CTL lines were established. 29 T clones were generated from those CTL lines using HBc18 ～27 stimulating. Among the 29 clones ,28 clones belonged to CD8~+ T cells and all displayed cytolytic activity. 12 CD8 +T clones were generated from those CTL lines using HBc117 ～ 125 stimulating. Specific cytotoxic activity was observed in 9 of those clones. The other three displayed less cytolytic activity. In the process of cloning, PHA was used alone or combined with synthetic peptides,and the achievement showed a rate of 15.62% and 14.58% . Conclusion HBc18 ～ 27 and HBc117 ～ 125 are capable of activating CD8~+ T cells in PBMCs of HLA - A * 0201 /2403 patient with chronic hepatitis B. In the process of CD8~+T cloning, synthetic peptides could not increase the rate of successful cloning.

Objective To explore the satisfaction of tertiary hospital employees, and to offer a basis for human resources management and decision-making improvement in hospitals.Methods The total area of China was divided into eastern, central and western areas by stratification sampling, and totally 15716 employees from 104 university hospitals and provincial hospitals in the three areas were selected by convenience sampling and investigated. This study was conducted online, and the time of sample return was from October 1st to November 30th, 2015. The employees were investigated for their satisfaction with the status of hospital management with the National Monitoring of Employees' Satisfaction Scale, which took into consideration such characteristics as position, sex, age, marital status, education, income, labor relations, working years and title.Results As for the position, the employees specialized in nursing showed the highest degree of satisfaction (91.10 points), while the employees working on medical positions had the lowest degree of satisfaction (85.34 points). Female employees had a higher degree of satisfaction than male ones, and married employees had a slightly lower degree of satisfaction than unmarried employees. Medical employees at different levels showed different degrees of satisfaction. Clinical front-line employees had lower satisfaction with their give and take than the employees on other positions.Conclusions The HR department of hospitals should pay attention to the employees' real concerns, and take measures to improve medical and nursing staffs' job satisfaction.

Objective To observe the effect of the supine-posture ripple wood training in preventing motion sickness caused by linear acceleration.Methods Totally 61 motion sickness sensitive males were screened by a vertical oscillation simulator and divided into mildly sensitive group(Graybiel score 1-15,n=28)and severely sensitive group(Graybiel score 16,n=33).The participants in the 2 groups received 5-d ripple wood training,30 min/d.The movement frequency of the ripper wood was maintained at 0.25-0.35 Hz,with an acceleration of 0.15-0.25 g.Graybiel score during the training period was recorded.The static balance function test was conducted before and after training on the 1st and 5th day.Results During the training period,the Graybiel scores and motion sickness incidence in the severely sensitive group were decreased with the increase of training days,and all participants achieved complete acclimatization on the 4th day.The Graybiel scores of the mildly sensitive group were low during the whole period,and the complete acclimatization period was 2 d.There was no significant difference in the sway area of the severely sensitive group in static balance function test before and after training(P＞0.05).The mean velocity of the severely sensitive group in static balance function test was significantly increased after training versus before training on the 1st day(P＜0.01),and there was no significant difference before and after training on the 5th day(P＞0.05).There were no significant differences in the sway area or mean velocity of the mildly sensitive group during the whole training period(all P＞0.05).The validation experiment showed that the motion sickness incidence and the symptom severity were significantly decreased in both groups;the motion sickness incidence of the mildly sensitive group decreased from 100.00％(28/28)to 35.71％(10/28);the incidence of severe symptoms in the severely sensitive group decreased from 100.00％(33/33)to 6.06％(2/33)and the vomiting incidence decreased from 96.97％(32/33)to 6.06％(2/33).Conclusion The supine-posture ripple wood training has great effect in preventing motion sickness,with widespread use and simple operation.

Objective:To explore potential predictors of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (RMPP) in early stage. Methods:The prospective multicenter study was conducted in Zhejiang, China from May 1 st, 2019 to January 31 st, 2020. A total of 1 428 patients with fever >48 hours to <120 hours were studied. Their clinical data and oral pharyngeal swab samples were collected; Mycoplasma pneumoniae DNA in pharyngeal swab specimens was detected. Patients with positive Mycoplasma pneumoniae DNA results underwent a series of tests, including chest X-ray, complete blood count, C-reactive protein, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and procalcitonin. According to the occurrence of RMPP, the patients were divided into two groups, RMPP group and general Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (GMPP) group. Measurement data between the 2 groups were compared using Mann-Whitney U test. Logistic regression analyses were used to examine the associations between clinical data and RMPP. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to analyse the power of the markers for predicting RMPP. Results:A total of 1 428 patients finished the study, with 801 boys and 627 girls, aged 4.3 (2.7, 6.3) years. Mycoplasma pneumoniae DNA was positive in 534 cases (37.4%), of whom 446 cases (83.5%) were diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia, including 251 boys and 195 girls, aged 5.2 (3.3, 6.9) years. Macrolides-resistant variation was positive in 410 cases (91.9%). Fifty-five cases were with RMPP, 391 cases with GMPP. The peak body temperature before the first visit and LDH levels in RMPP patients were higher than that in GMPP patients (39.6 (39.1, 40.0) vs. 39.2 (38.9, 39.7) ℃, 333 (279, 392) vs. 311 (259, 359) U/L, both P<0.05). Logistic regression showed the prediction probability π=exp (-29.7+0.667×Peak body temperature (℃)+0.004×LDH (U/L))/(1+exp (-29.7+0.667×Peak body temperature (℃)+0.004 × LDH (U/L))), the cut-off value to predict RMPP was 0.12, with a consensus of probability forecast of 0.89, sensitivity of 0.89, and specificity of 0.67; and the area under ROC curve was 0.682 (95% CI 0.593-0.771, P<0.01). Conclusion:In MPP patients with fever over 48 to <120 hours, a prediction probability π of RMPP can be calculated based on the peak body temperature and LDH level before the first visit, which can facilitate early identification of RMPP.

Esophageal cancer is one of the malignant tumors that poses a threat to human health, with both high incidence and malignancy. Currently, surgery following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for locally advanced esophageal cancer; however, the long-term prognosis remains unsatisfactory. In recent years, inhibitors of programmed death protein-1 (PD-1) and its ligand (programmed death ligand-1, PD-L1) have achieved breakthrough progress in other solid tumors, and research on esophageal cancer is gradually being conducted. With the demonstration of good efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in the first-line and second-line treatment of advanced unresectable esophageal cancer, their incorporation into neoadjuvant treatment regimens has become a hot topic. Therefore, this article reviews the mechanism of action of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors and their application in the neoadjuvant treatment of esophageal cancer.
