Objective To construct short hairpin RNA (shRNA) recombinant expression vector for herpes simplex virus typeⅡ(HSV-2) UL29 gene and observe its inhibitory effect on HSV-2. Methods Four interference target sites of HSV-2UL29 gene were selected to construct 4 groups of small hairpin RNA respectively,named shRNA recombinant expression vector. The expression vectors were transfected into HEK293 cells with liposome. HEK293 cells were infected with HSV-2 after expression vector being transfected. The viral titer was estimated by end-point titration assay. The level of transcription was estimated by Real-Time PCR method. The expressing effect of protein was detected by Western-blot. Results Recombinant expression vector pGPU6/GFP/Neo-shRNA was constructed successfully. The result of end-point titration assay showed that the viral titer was reduced comparing with blank control (P<0.05). The result of RT-PCR showed that inhibition rates were respectively 28.80%, 59.95%, 66.08%and 36.27% comparing with blank control, and there were significant differences (P < 0.05). The effect of UL29shRNA1461 group was the best one. The result of Western-blot showed that the expressing quantity of ICP8 was reduced. Conclusion Recombinant expression vector pGPU6/GFP/Neo-shRNA can interfere HSV-2 UL29 gene expression from different cell level in vitro, which can inhibit the replication of HSV-2 genome in HEK293 cells. Thus, RNA interference (RNAi) is conducive to the further exploration of viral therapy.

Objective To develop a predictive model for pulmonary embolism(PE)based on the related clinical symptoms,signs,and the labo-ratory index,so as to improve the positive rate of CTPA. Methods The model was developed from a database of 119 patients with suspected PE. The risk factors of suspected PE were analyzed by logistic regression analysis ,which included significant differences in the prevalence of PE be-tween non-diseased and non-diseased groups. Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves was draw to determine the cut-off value of the clini-cal probability. It was validated in an independent sample of 106 patients with suspected PE. Results According to the univariate analysis ,17 of 51 variables show a significant difference between PE and non-PE patients. The model comprised 4 variables:age,dyspnea,D-dimer and unilater-al leg swelling. The area under the ROC curve is 0.776,and the cut-off value is supposed to be 0.38. In the validation sample,27% patients had PE confirmed by CTPA. The prevalence of PE was 54%when the clinical probability was above 0.38. Conclusion The proposed predictive mod-el in this study can improve the positive rate of CTPA ,simplify the diagnosis process of suspected PE patients.

Objective:
This study aimed to explore the relationship between childhood sexual abuse (CSA) and sexual orientation among college students, and to explore possible sex difference.
Methods:
By using multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method, 4 034 students were selected from 4 college schools. Self-made questionnaire was used to collect the demographic information, CSA experiences and sexual orientation. Logistic regression models were conducted to examine sex differences in the relationship between different types and timing of CSA and sexual orientation.
Results:
The reporting rates of heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual and asexual orientation of college students were 93.2%, 0.7%, 3.7% and 2.4%, respectively. For males, contact CSA (OR=14.70, 95%CI=5.73-37.72), both contact and noncontact CSA (OR=4.33,95%CI=1.91-9.84) in elementary school or earlier were associated with sexual orientaion. non-contact CSA (OR=4.20, 95%CI=2.21-7.98), both contact and noncontact CSA (OR=3.57, 95%CI=1.65-7.70) in middle school were related to sexual orientation. However, for females, non-contact CSA (OR=1.78, 95%CI=1.02-3.13) and both contact and non-contact CSA (OR=3.13, 95%CI=1.35-7.23) in elementary school or earlier were associated with sexual orientation.
Conclusion
CSA experiences are associated with sexual orientation in sex-specific manner, with significant stronger association among males.
