To identify the expression of the molecule recognized by Pf18-3 mAb (Pf18-3 molecule) on various cells. Meth-ods: The expression of pr18-3 molecule was assayed by flow cytometry and confocal laser scanning microscope . Result: The molecule recog-nized by Pf18-3 mAb expressed on TSC and other stromal cells. Whereas, fresh thymocytes were Pf18-3 negative. Interestingly, the expressionof Pf18-3 molecule was gradually up-regulated on thymocytes after activation by ConA. This molecule mainly expressed on CD4+ CD8+ andCD4+ CD8- cells. Under confocal laser scanning microscope, the staining of fluorescence showed as ring around the cell, it changed grsduallystronger and thicker with activation. Conclusion: This study indicated that the Pf18-3 molecule was co-expressive molecule of MTSC and acti-vated tlymocytes,it was concemed closely about the activation of CD4+ C D8+ and CD4+ CD8- cells.

OBJECTIVE:To analyse the advantages and disvantages of split tablets given to in-patients.METHODS:We collected13kinds of oral tablets(10tablets each kind and260pieces of the split tablet altogether),which were often splitted by pharmaceutists.We tested and analysed the weight variation of the split tablet on the basis of the dosage consistency metioned in the USP which is applied to the whole tablet.RESULTS:None of the13kinds of prescription drug passed the consistent testing after splitting.There was some relationship between the effect of the split tablet and its shape.It was relatively easy to break off the tablet with nick in half.The loss of dosage inevitably occurred during the process of splitting the tablet.CONCLUSION:Breaking off the tablet in half led to high ratio of weight variation.The modus operandi of splitting the tablet in half for saving expenses can only be applied to those drugs with low toxicities and relatively flat dose-effect curve.In the case of those drugs which bear high toxicities and steep dose-effect curve,carefulness should always be taken when applying such method.

Acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis (AOSC) is one of the most serious acute abdomen.The incidence of abdominal infection is significantly improved when patients were complicated with AOSC and diabetes mellitus,and then bile leakage,intestinal fistula and even death were induced by abdominal infection.The management of abdominal infection is very important for the prognosis of patients.One patient with AOSC and diabetes mellitus was admitted to the No.425 Hospital of PLA from May to July in 2013.Recurrent abdominal infection and abscess occurred after the operation due to his family members' refusal of surgery at early period and lax control of blood glucose before and after surgery,and then bile leakage and intestinal fistula were induced.The patient underwent operation for 3 times,and was cured after receiving fasting,gastrointestinal decompression,parental nutrition,somatostatin administration and antibiotic treatment.

Objective To investigate the possible existence of HBoV in children with acute respiratory infections in Nanjing area and explore its relationship with clinical characteristics.Methods A total of 397 nasopharyngeal secretion samples were collected from children with acute respiratory infection,admitted from July 2009 to June 2010 in Nanjing Children'S Hospital affiliated to Nanjing Medical University,and 50 cases of children without symptoms of respiratory infection were recruited as control group,whose nasopharyngeal secretion samples were also collected.HBoV was determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.MP and CT were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR in those HBoV-positive samples.RSV,ADV,IVA,IVB,PIV-1,PIV-2,PIV-3 and hMPV were detected by direct antigen-specific immunofluorescence assays.HBoV NP-1 fragments were amplified and sequenced in 5 HBoV positive samples randomly selected.The results were compared with the known GenBank sequence,and thereby the phylogenetic tree was established.The epidemiological characteristics,clinical presentation and the final clinical diagnosis of HBoV were analyzed according to the clinical data of the HBoV-positive patients.Results Thirty-three HBoV-positive cases were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method with a positivity rate of 8. 3% ( 33/397 ). Among the 33 HBoV-positive cases, 19 cases (57.6%) were multiple infections with HBoV and other pathogens, the top three of which were MP (27.3% ,9/33 ),RSV (24.2% , 8/33 ) and PIV-3 ( 12. 1% ,4/33 ). Affected children aged from 7 to 36 months old accounted for 75.8% of the total ( 25/33 ). The measured HBoV NP-1 gene sequences of 5 specimens were consistent,indicating a high homology (99% to 100% ) with the stl, st2 and WHL-1. Conclusions HBoV is one of the pathogens of children's acute respiratory infections in Nanjing. HBoV NP-1 gene is highly conserved,with little variation in different seasons and in different regions and therefore can be used as a marker for real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and other methods.
