Dendritic cells (DC) are important antigen-presenting cells in the development of anti-leukemic T-cells responses and it' s reported that DC can differentiate from monocytes or granulocytes in vitro. In the present study, the human leukemic DC were generated from acute promyelocytic leukemic( APL)cells after treatment with cytokines. M3 APL cells were isolated from peripheral blood of patients and incubated with rhGM-CSF( 100ng/ml)or rhGM-CSF( lOOng/ml) plus rhIL-4(500U/ml)for 14 days and the cells were co-cultured wirh TNF-?(100ng/ml)during last 3 days. The results demonstrated that both proliferation and differentiation of APL cells were induced by GM-CSF as the number of cultured cells increased and the cells expressed high level of CD45. Some cells displayed the characteristics of monocytes which expressed CD14 and some were leukemic DC as they expressed GDI a. The co-culturation of APL cells with GM-CSF and TNF-? augmented the differentiation of cells and about 35 percent of leukemic DC generated (was obtained). The maturation of APL cells could also be induced by GM-CSF plus IL-4 but there were few monocytes generated and about 10 percent of the cells were leukemic DC. If cultured for 3 weeks, the number of leukemic DC increased to 60 percent. The addition of TNF-? could augmented GM-CSF and IL-4 induced maturation of cells significantly and 90 percent of leukemic DC generated. Analysis of the cells with electric microscopy indicated that these leukemic DC displayed the similarly morphologic characteristics as monocyte-derived DC and there were still a few granules in their cytoplasm. The leukemic DC expressed high levels of HLA-DR, B7-1, B7-2 and CD54 molecules and could stimulate allo-T cells to proliferate in vitro. Such kind of leukemic DC might be useful tools for the generation of specific anti-tumor CTL and play important roles in immunotherapy of APL.

Fractures of the calcaneus are the most common type of tarsal bone injuries, and about 75% of total calcaneal fractures are intraarticular. Despite increasingly more experiences with this type of fractures, however, there is considerable debate regarding their diagnosis and management. Controversies involve the most appropriate classification system, treatment options, indications for surgery, surgical approaches, and postoperative management. On the basis of current main views on the diagnosis and treatment of intraarticular calcaneal fractures, this article holds that for displaced intraarticular calcaneal fractures, operative treatments are superior to conservative ones.

Objective To investigate the Toxoplasma gondii infection status in pregnant women with history of adverse preg?nancy and risk factors in Bazhou area,Hebei Province. Methods A total of 302 pregnant women with the history of adverse pregnancy were chosen as respondents(an experimental group)in the hospital from March 2012 to December 2015,and 197 pregnant women without the history of adverse pregnancy as a control group. TOX?IgG and TOX?IgM were detected by using ELI?SA in two groups. The risk factors of Toxoplasma infection were surveyed by questionnaires. Results The total positive rate of Toxoplasma antibodies was 28.15%(85/302)in the experimental group,which was significantly higher than that[9.64%(19/197)]in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=24.76,P<0.05). The positive rates of TOX?IgM,TOX?IgG and TOX?IgM+TOX?IgG were 6.95%(21/302),18.54%(56/302),and 2.65%(8/302)respectively in the ex?perimental group,which were higher than 2.03%(4/197),7.61%(15/197),and 0%(0/197)respectively in the control group (χ2=6.07,11.67,3.76,all P<0.05). The questionnaire survey showed that the proportions of keeping pets,cutting board re?gardless,liking to eat hot pot or barbecue,eating raw meat,often eating in the restaurant in the pregnant women with Toxoplas?ma infection were higher than those in the pregnant women without Toxoplasma infection,and the differences were statistically significant(χ2=22.57,3.96,5.87,7.40,4.86,all P<0.05),and therefore,the above unhealthy habits may be important risk factors. Conclusions Toxoplasma infection could lead to adverse pregnancy outcomes. Therefore,the above?mentioned unhealthy habits should be avoided,especially during pregnancy period.

Objective To explore application of standardized patients (SPs) in intensive training of clinical competency for general practice trainees. Methods Fifty-three general practice trainees in Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital were enrolled in the study, randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. Control group proceeded in routine clinical rotation, while intervention group accepted intensive training course with SPs as trainers. Three months after intervention, clinical skills of the two groups were compared in a simulated medical environment. Results There was no statistically significant difference in their baseline characteristics between the two groups (P >0.05). Competency in history taking, physical examinations,communication with patients, comprehensive consultation, medical record writing as well as case-analysis,improved significantly in intervention group after intervention, as compared to those before it ( P < 0. 01 ),with the highest score of communication skill of 82 ± 10. Although competency of history taking, physical examinations, comprehensive consultation, medical record writing also improved significantly three months later in control group as compared to their baselines (P < 0. 01 ), while no statistically significant difference in their communication skills was found ( P > 0. 05 ). Scores of skills in physician-patient communication,comprehensive consultation as well as medical record analysis were significantly higher in intervention group than those in control one after intervention ( P < 0. 01 ), but no significant difference in physical examinations was found between the two groups ( P > 0. 05 ). Conclusions Application of SP in intensive training course for clinical competency can remarkably improve their competency in interpersonal communication and comprehensive consultation for general practice trainees.
