Objective :
To systematically evaluate the adherence to antiretroviral therapy among HIV/AIDS patients in China, so as to provided evidence-based insights into improving the efficacy of antiretroviral therapy.
Methods:
Publications pertaining to the adherence to antiretroviral therapy among HIV/AIDS patients in China were retrieved in CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed, and Cochrane Library from 2012 to 2022. A meta-analysis was performed using the software Stata 16.0. Sensitivity analysis was performed with the leave-one-out method, and the publication bias was evaluated using funnel plot and Begg's test.
Results:
A total of 1 171 publications were screened, and 33 publications were included in the final analysis, which covered 11 218 subjects in 19 study areas and included 18 high-quality publications and 15 medium-quality publications. Meta-analysis showed that the pooled adherence to antiretroviral therapy was 86.57% (95%CI: 86.01%-87.12%, P<0.05) among HIV/AIDS patients, and subgroup analysis showed high adherence among HIV/AIDS patients in eastern China (92.13%, 95%CI: 91.45%-92.82%). Sensitivity analysis showed the robustness of the meta-analysis results, and no publication bias was detected as revealed by the funnel plot and Begg's test (P>0.05).
Conclusions
The adherence to antiretroviral therapy is 86.01% to 87.12% among HIV/AIDS patients in China. Intensified health education and follow-up management is required among HIV/AIDS patients in China.

Objective To investigate the expression levels of miRNA in kidney biopsies of child patients with nephrotic syndrome and the possibility of miRNA as potential markers in differentiating the pathologic subtypes of nephrosis.Methods Kidney biopsy specimens from 41 child patients with nephrotic syndrome,including 22 with nesangial proliferative glomeplonephritis (MsPGN),8 with minimal change disease (MCD) and 11 with endocapillary proliferative glomerulonephritis (ECPGN),were collected,and adult nephridial tissues from 8 patients without renal inadequacy were selected as controls.The expression levels of miR-191,miR-151-3p,miR-150,miR-30a-5p and miR-19b in nephridial tissues were detected by RT-qPCR,and their correlations with renal function related parameters were analyzed.Results Compared with the controls,the miR-191 levels in kidney tissues of child patients with nephrotic syndrome increased significantly (P < 0.01),while the miR-151-3p levels decreased obviously (P < 0.01).The expression levels of miR-150 in MCD patients were significantly lower than those in MsPGN and ECPGN patients and the controls (P < 0.05).The expression levels of these miRNAs were positively correlated with serum IgG,TP and Cr levels,but negatively with serum TC levels (P <0.05).Conclusion The expression levels of miRNA in kidney tissues of child patients with nephrotic syndrome are related to pathological typing of nephrosis,and miR-150 may be a potential marker which may differentiate MCD from other subtypes of nephrosis.

AIM: To discover specific neural stem cell (NSC) proliferation-promoting factor, which will contribute to study on development of nervous system and treatment of nervous system diseases. METHODS: The extracts of forebrain, midbrain,afterbrain and cerebellum of neonatal mice were prepared, and the NSCs of newborn mice were cultured in vitro. Neurospheres were observed, immunocytochemical staining of characteristic protein, nestin, and MTT assay were performed to identify NSCs and their proliferative properties. RESULTS: A great deal of neurospheres were formed in the presence of the extracts of afterbrain and cerebellum, which were positive for characteristic protein (Nestin) of NSC showed by immunocytochemical staining. CONCLUSION: The afterbrain and cerebellum extracts can increase the total number of NSCs isolated from newborn mice in vitro in a dose-dependent manner.

Objective To establish the chromatographic fingerprint of mushroom polysaccharides by 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone( PMP) pre-column derivatization. Methods The mushroom polysaccharides was extracted by hot distilled water, precipitated by alcohol, and hydrolyzed into monosaccharides by Trifluoroacetic Acid (TFA). The hydrolysate was derivatized with 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone ( PMP ) and tested via HPLC to study the monosaccharide components in mushroom polysaccharides. Results Fingerprint was established with 13 common peaks, 6 peaks in which were identified as mannose, D-glucuronic acid, D-glucose, galactose, xylose and L-fucose. The glucose accounted for the most, followed by mannose, galactose and fucose. Conclusion Development of fingerprint chromatogram by HPLC is a stable, simple, and repeatable way, which can be applied to the quality control of mushroom polysaccharides.

Objective:
To learn the status and influencing factors of the purchase of supplementary insurance for adverse events following immunization ( AEFI ) by parents in Changsha, so as to provide basis for the development of compensatory strategies.
Methods:
Stratified random sampling method was used to select the parents who lived in Changsha for more than six months and had children under seven years old as subjects. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect the information about demographic features, awareness of AEFI and the purchase of supplementary insurance. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for purchasing supplementary insurance.
Results:
Among 712 respondents ( response rate, 94.93% ) , 354 ( 49.72% ) purchased supplementary insurance. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the parents aged 36-71 years ( OR=0.325, 95%CI: 0.144-0.732 ) were less likely to purchase supplementary insurance; the parents who were aware of supplementary insurance ( OR=3.622, 95%CI: 2.218-5.913 ) and compensation range ( OR=1.332, 95%CI: 1.164-1.524 ) , and who scored higher in the knowledge and attitude of AEFI ( OR=1.137, 95%CI: 1.049-1.231 ) were more likely to purchase supplementary insurance.
Conclusion
About 49.72% of the parents purchased of supplementary insurance. Age, awareness of supplementary insurance and compensation range,as well as knowledge and attitude of AEFI were associated with the purchase of supplementary insurance.

Objective To investigate the duodenum absorptive character of monosialotetrahexosylganglioside sodium (GM1) in rats.Methods The contents of phenolsulfonphthalein (as indicators) and GM1 were determined with ultraviolet-visible (UV) method and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method in rats with in situ cycle intestinal perfusion model.Results The ratio of duodenum absorption of GM1 was 10% in 2 h after cycle and 22% in 6 h after cycle,respectively.The Ka was (0.030± 0.012)h,and absorption t1/2 was (25.50 ± 8.56)h in 8 h after cycle.Conclusions GM1 is absorption in rat duodenum,and the accumulate absorption of GM1 is almost linearly related to the cycle time.The absorption dynamics of GM1 may be first-order kinetic process.

Objective:To explore the relationship between empathy, professional values and nursing ability of nurses in geriatric hospital, and to explore the mediating effect of empathy between professional values and clinical nursing ability of geriatric nurses.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. In June 2022, 401 nurses from Beijing Geriatric Hospital were investigated by general data questionnaire, the Nursing Professional Values Scale, the Jefferson Scale of Empathy-Health Professional and the Geriatric Nursing Competence Scale, and the mediation effect of empathy was analyzed by sequential inspection method.Results:The score of the Jefferson Scale of Empathy-Health Professional was (114.25 ± 16.70) points, the score of the Nursing Professional Values Scale was (100.83 ± 17.76) points, the score of the Geriatric Nursing Competence Scale was (2.15 ± 0.76) points. Empathy was positively correlated with professional value and geriatric nursing ability ( r=0.456, 0.386, both P<0.01), while professional value was positively correlated with geriatric nursing ability ( r=0.421, P<0.01). In addition, empathy played a partial mediating effect between professional values and geriatric nursing ability, accounting for 27.78% of the total effect. Conclusions:This research shows that the nurses' empathy, professional value, geriatric nursing ability have significant positive correlation, and empathy between professional value and geriatric nursing ability play a partial intermediary role. It is suggested that managers should promote the cultivation of empathy and positive professional values of geriatric nurses through diversified training and perfect incentive measures, so as to stimulate work enthusiasm and improve the overall geriatric nursing ability.
