Objective To establish a semi-quantitative method for measurement of HCV RNA by use of primers and probe, which was sensitive and designed by ourselves, a new europium fluorescent chelate BHHCT. Methods 44 serum samples of HCV infected patients and 20 samples of the healthy people were collected. HCV RNA in serum sample was extracted by HCV fluorescence PCR diagnostic kit produced by Zhongshan University DAAN Gene Co Ltd, and amplified by RT-PCR in which one PCR primer was pre-labeled with biotin. The amplified products were hybridized with capture probes pre-fixed on the microplate. The biotin in the amplified products was conjugated with europium labeled streptavidin. So europium was linked to the target DNA. Then the fluorescent of europium was measured. Results The linear range of this assay was 10 - 10 copies/ml. Both sensitivity and specificity were 100%. Conclusion Europium labeled RT-PCR assay is a sensitive, specific, fast and non-radioactive contaminant method for the measurement of HCV RNA.

Objective To investigate early reduction of the dose of immunosuppressive drug after allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation(allo-PBSCT)for patients with refractory or relapsed leukemia.Methods Between Janaury 2004 and December 2006,15 patients with relapsed or refractory leukemia in Department of Hematology,the First Affiliated Hospital,Sun Yat-Sen University and Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital,CAMS & PUMC,received allo-PBSCT from their relatives,12 from HLA-identical siblings.The preparative regimens included BuCy and TBICy with or without cytarabine.Cyclosporine A(CsA)or tacrolimus was used for graft-versus-host disease(GVHD)prophylaxis,with rapid decreasing starting on day 30 of post transplant if no GVHD appeared in receipts of matched sibling tranplantation.Results(1)Faster engraftment was achieved in all patients.Grade Ⅰ~Ⅱ acute GVHD appeared in 5 patients.Chronic GVHD occured in 7 of 11 evaluable patients.(2)Of 9 patients with an lower CsA or tacrolimus dosage,only 1 developed grade Ⅰ acute GVHD,4 chronic GVHD,2 extramedullary relapse.(3)After a median follow-up of 328 days,8 patients has leukemia-free-survival(LFS),4 relapsed,and only 1 had transplantation-related mortality(TRM)in the first 3 months post-transplant.The estimated LFS at 1 year and 2 years was 51% and 25%,respectively.Conclusion Patients with advanced leukemia might benefit from allo-PBSCT with significant lower treatment failure incidence.Dose reductions of CsA and tacrolimus in early transplant might enhance graft-versus-leukemia effect,and improve long-term LFS.

Objective To assess the incidence,risk factors and mortality of acute kidney injury(AKI)in patients with chronic myelogeneous leukemia(CML)after myeloablative allogenetic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT). Methods Renal function in 93 CML patients undergone myeloablative allo-HSCT was retrospectively analyzed by the RIFLE criteria. Results Thirty-nine patients (41.9%) developed AKI at a median of 40 days after allo-HSCT, including 24 AKI-R patients(25.8%), 10 AKI-I patients(10.8%) and 5 AKI-F patients (5.4%). The morbidity of AKI in patients with ≥Ⅲ acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) and without ＜Ⅲ GVHD was (81.82±11.63)% and (36.59±5.32)% (P=0.0037)rospectively. The morbidity of AKI in patients with increased total bilirubin and without increased total bilirubin was (72.73±13.43)% and (37.04±5.37)%(P=0.0192) respectively. ≥Ⅲ aGVHD was peor-prognostic factor of AKI and RR was 2.773 [95%CI (1.073-7.167), P=0.035]. RR of AKI-I and AKI-F in patients with ≥Ⅲ aGVHD was 6.320195%CI (1.464-27.291), P=0.013]. The mortality within 100 days after allo-HSCT of patients with AKI was significantly different as compared to patients without AKI (P=0.001). Six-mouth survival rates of different class AKI patients after myeloablative allo-HSCT were (86.96±7.02)% (AKI-R), (70.00±14.49)% (AKI-I), 0 (AKI-F) (P=0.000)respectively. Conclusions AKI is one of the main complications in CML patients after myeloablative allo-HSCT. ≥Ⅲ aGVHD and increased total bilimbin are poor-prognostic factors of AKI, and higher morbidity of AKI-I and AKI-F can be found in patients with ≥Ⅲ aGVHD. With the deteriorated AKI, 6-month survival is decreased. RIFLE criteria is sensitive to the early diagnosis of renal function. Moreover RIFLE can monitor the progression of AKI and predict the clinical outcome.

Objective To analyze morbidity and prognosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with acute leukemia after myeloablative allogenetic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).Methods Renal function and related clinical data in 66 patients receiving myeloablative alloHSCT were retrospectively analyzed.Renal function was evaluated by RIFLE criteria,which defines AKI as three grades of severity-risk (AKI-R),injury (AKI-I) and failure (AKI-F).Results Thirtyseven recipients (56.1%) developed AKI at a median of 29 days after allo-HSCT,including AKI-R(19 recipients,28.8 %),AKI-I (11 recipients,16.7 %),AKI-F (7 recipients,10.6 %).Compared with baseline value,serum creatinine level in the recipients was significantly increased at the 21st day after transplantation (P＜0.05).During 100 days after HSCT,the morbidity of AKI-F in recipients with HVOD and without HVOD were respectively (55.56 ± 22.22)% and (9.01 ± 4.75)% (P＜0.01).The morbidity of AKI in recipients with or without increased total bilirubin was respectively (68.75 ± 24.54)% and (8.38 ± 4.17)% (P＜0.01).The morbidity of AKI in recipients with or without increased CsA concentration was respectively (66.67 ± 10.29) % and (44.44 ± 8.28) % (P＜0.05).100-day survival rate in recipients after myeloablative allo-HSCT without AKI,with AKI-R,AKI-I and AKI-F was respectively (89.66 ± 5.66) %,(83.88 ± 8.54) %,(81.82 ± 11.63) % and (42.86 ± 18.7) % (P＜0.05).Conclusion AKI is one of the main complications in patients with acute leukemia after myeloablative allo-HSCT.The influence of different class AKI on the mortality was different.The earlier diagnosis,prophylaxis and treatment of AKI by the RIFLF criteria might increase the survival rate in recipients with HSCT.

Objective To explore the characteristics of attenuated plaque (AP) in culprit lesions for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in elderly patients.Methods This study included 166 ACS patients meeting the conditions from Jan.1, 2013 to Sep.31, 2014.Clinical data, vascular lesions determined by coronary angiography and intravenous ultrasound (IVUS)-demonstrated characteristics of culprit plaque, which included presence of AP, maximum attenuation arc, extravascular elastic membrane area, lumen area, plaque area, plaque burden and remodeling index, were recorded.Results Compared with non-elderly group, elderly group had a higher proportion of multiple coronary-artery lesions (50.0％ vs.35.1％, x2=6.525, P =0.038), more attenuation plaques (62.0 ％ vs.45.9％, x2 =4.245, P=0.039), a larger maximum attenuation arc[(142±80)° vs.(115±54)°, t=5.254, P=0.000], larger plaque area[(14.2±3.9)mm2 vs.(12.3 ± 4.1) mm2, t=2.325, P=0.022], more plaque burden [(81.1±14.2)％ vs.(76.4±13.5)％, t=2.025, P=0.042] and higher remodeling index [(1.19±0.17) vs.(1.09±0.13), t=4.245, P=0.031].Conclusions The onset of ACS is more closely related with the unstable plaque in elderly patients, and strengthening the measures for plaque stabilization will be helpful in the prevention and treatment of ACS in the elderly.

Objective To analyze the outcomes and the prognostic factors of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in combination with imatinib for Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). Methods All 32 patients with Ph+ ALL achieved hematologic complete remission (CR) at time of transplantation, including 27 cases in the first CR (CR1) and 5 in CR2. Nineteen patients achieved molecular remission (MR). Among 32 patients, 4 received autologous HSCT (AHSCT), and 28 allogeneic HSCT (allo-HSCT). The conditioning regimens comprised of total body irradiation (TBI), cyclophosphamide, fludarabine and cytarabine. The median number of transfused mononuclear cells was 5. 6 × 108/kg, and that of CD34+ cells was 2. 94 × 106 /kg. Thirty-one patients were administrated imatinib orally before transplantion, at a dose of 400～600 mg/day, and 16 patients after transplantation, including 7 for prevention at a dose of 300～400 mg/day and 9 for salvage treatment at a dose of 400 ～ 600 mg/day. Results Hematopoietic reconstitution was achieved in all 32 patients. Three-year estimate of overall survival (OS) was (62. 1±8. 6)%, leukemia-free survival (LFS) (59. 2 ± 8. 7)%, relapse rate (RR) (17. 7 ± 7. 2)% and transplant-related mortality (26. 2 ± 8. 0) %. All 4 undergoing AHSCT were alive, and 3 out of them were in continuous CR with durations of 14, 18 and 67 months respectively. The univariate analysis for prognosis in allo-HSCT showed that the OS of HLA-matched sibling donors group was 76. 5 %,higher than that of unrelated or haploidentical donors group (27. 3 %, P＜0. 05), and so was LFS (70. 6 % vs 27. 3 %, P＜0. 05). RR in patients achieving MR at time of transplantation was 5. 6 %,lower than that in those not achieving MR (40. 0 %, P＜0. 05). RR in patients in CR1 at time of transplantation was 12. 5 %, lower than that in those in CR2 (50 %, P ＜0. 05). Conclusion Imatinib improved the outcomes of HSCT for Ph+ ALL, especially to patients achieving MR at time of transplantation and transplantation in early stage (CR1).

Objective:To compare the efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in the treatment of osteoporotic lumbar compression fracture (OLCF) via the approach through midpoint transverse process-transition zone of articular process and the unilateral transpedicular approach.Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 794 patients with OLCF treated in Honghui Hospital affiliated to Xi′an Jiaotong University School of Medicine from January 2017 to December 2019. The patients were divided into transitional-zone puncture group (400 patients, 400 vertebrae) and pedicle puncture group (394 patients, 394 vertebrae) according to the envelope method. The transitional-zone puncture group was treated with PVP via the approach through midpoint transverse process-transition zone of articular process, and the pedicle puncture group was treated with PVP via the unilateral transpedicular approach. The operation time and radiation dose were documented. The visual analogue score (VAS) and Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI) were evaluated before operation and at 1 day, 3 months, 1 year after operation. The cement distribution and the incidence of complications such as cement leakage, re-fracture of the injured vertebra, spinal cord nerve injury and facet joint injury were detected.Results:The patients were composed of 270 males and 524 females, at the age of 68.9-78.5 years [(73.7±4.8)years]. All patients were followed up for 12-14 months [(13.4±0.8)months]. The operation time and radiation dose in transitional-zone puncture group were reduced compared with pedicle puncture group ( P<0.01). There was no significant difference in VAS and ODI between the two groups before operation (all P>0.05). The VAS between transitional-zone puncture group [(2.1±0.9)points, (2.3±1.1)points, (2.7±1.3)points] and pedicle puncture group [(2.3±0.7)points, (2.5±0.9)points, (2.9±1.1)points] was obviously reduced from that before operation (all P<0.01), significantly different at 1 day, 3 months, 1 year after operation ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The ODI between transitional-zone puncture group (14.3±1.8, 13.6±3.4, 11.3±4.4) and pedicle puncture group (25.5±5.7, 20.7±6.3, 20.6±6.9) was significantly different at 1 day, 3 months, 1 year after operation (all P<0.01), and all were obviously reduced from that before operation (all P<0.01). With regard to the cement distribution, the number of bilaterally cemented vertebrae in transitional-zone puncture group (324) was more than that in pedicle puncture group (94) ( P<0.01). The incidence of cement leakage, re-fracture of the injured vertebra and facet joint injury was 8.25%(22/400), 0.00%(0/400) and 3.25%(13/400) in transitional-zone puncture group, significantly different from 20.81%(82/394), 2.03%(8/394) and 9.90%(39/394) in pedicle puncture group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). There was no significant difference in spinal cord nerve injury between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:For OLCF, PVP via the approach through the midpoint transverse process-transition zone of articular process and the unilateral transpedicular approach are both effective, but the former has advantages of shorter operation time, smaller radiation dose, greater dispersion of bone cement and lower incidence of cement leakage, re-fracture of the injured vertebra and facet joint injury.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of leuprolide acetate in the treatment of endometriosis. Methods From Nov. 2007 to Oct. 2012, the patients who confirmed to be endometriosis were randomly divided into test group of 113 cases and control group of 116 cases. The test drug was the sustained-release agent of leuprolide acetate. The control drug was Enantone. The drugs were used for 3 times in total. After treatment, the ovarian mass volumes measured with type-B ultrasound, the scores of the patient′s subjective symptoms during non-menstrual and menstruation days, the pelvic signs during non-menstrual days, the changes of hormones [estradiol (E2), FSH, LH], and adverse events were observed. Results After the treatment, the rate of changes of ovarian mass volume (among them, at 12 weeks after the first injection, the median was -55.83% in the test group, -68.22% in the control group, P=0.336), the distinct improvement rate of symptom scores and pelvic signs during non-menstrual days [among them, at 12 weeks after the first injection, the rate of lower abdomen pain was 47.5%(48/101) in the test group, 44.0%(44/100) in the control group, P=0.881], the hormone (E2, FSH, LH) levels [among them, at 12 weeks after the first injection, the serum level of E2, was (33±38) pmol/L in the test group, (38± 40) pmol/L in the control group, P=0.414;the serum level of FSH, was (5.1±2.8) U/L in the test group, (5.3± 2.3) U/L in the control group, P=0.666;the serum level of LH, was (0.6±0.8) U/L in the test group, (0.6±0.9) U/L in the control group, P=0.907], had no statistically significant difference between the two groups (all P>0.05). The distinct improvement rate and improvement rate of symptom (lower abdomen pain, low back pain) scores during menstruation days at 12 weeks after the first injection, the rates of lower abdomen pain were 73.9%(34/46), 15.2%(7/46) respectively in the test group, 72.3%(34/47), 2.1%(1/47) respectively in the control group, had statistically significant difference between the two groups (P=0.026). There was no serious adverse event occurred in both two groups. The incidence rate of adverse event was 33.6%(38/113) in test group, 23.2% (27/116) in control group, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.082). Conclusion Leuprolide acetate is effective and safe in the treatment of endometriosis.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for content determination of chlorogenic acid and periplocin in Miao medicine Periploca forrestii. METHODS:HPLC method was adopted. The determination was performed on Xtimate C18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid solution(gradient elution)at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 220 nm,and column temperature was maintained at 25 ℃. The sample size was 10 μL. Cluster analysis was conducted according to the content of chlorogenic acid and periplocin in samples by SPSS 23.0 software. RESULTS:The linear range of chlorogenic acid and periplocin were 0.040 6-1.8 μg(r＝0.999 4)and 0.016 8-2.3 μg(r＝0.999 9),respectively. RSDs of precision,stability and repeatability tests were all lower than 5.0%. The quantitation limits were 0.918 0,0.084 3 μg/mL, and detection limits were 0.102 0,0.025 3 μg/mL, respectively. RSD of durability were lower than 3.0%. The recoveries were 102.66%-104.00%(RSD＝0.53%,n＝6),96.44%-100.79%(RSD＝1.73%,n＝6),respectively. RSD of durability were lower than 3.0%. The result indicated that 18 batches of samples were divided into 3 categories by cluster analysis. S2,S4,S10,S12 and S14-S18 were divided into one category;S1,S3,S5-S7,S9,S11 and S13 were divided into another category;S8 was regarded as one category. CONCLUSIONS:The method can be applied for quality control and evaluation of P. forrestii. The contents of chlorogenic acid and periplocin in P. forrestii from different producing areas are different greatly. There is a certain correlation between the content of each component and the producing area.
