How to reduce immune response is an unprecedented challenge for rAAV gene medicine. Recent studies suggested that lowering dosage of the vector used could reduce immune response caused by rAAV gene medicine. Nevertheless, it would also decrease the transgene expression, leading to failure of gene treatment. It is therefore important to take appropriate steps to maintain high gene expression level and pharmacodynamic, while the dosage of rAAV used is reduced. Here, steps to enhancing gene therapy, such as optimization of the administration, reconstruction of the viral vector and selection of the promoter, are discussed in order to achieve maximum outcome.

OBJECTIVE To investigate inspection report sheets preserving type and hand hygiene behavior among patients,and to discuss countermeasures to ensure medical safety for patients. METHODS Random sampling investigation was carried out between one experimental group,whose members were general clinic patients,and one control group,whose members were physical examinees for employment. Statistical analysis for the original data was taken by using SPSS software. RESULTS In the experimental group and in the control group respectively,the ratio of patients who had correct cognition on the biosafety of inspection report sheet was 66.90% and 78.72%,80.80% and 94.86% patients washed hands after touching inspection report sheets,71.00% and 87.00% patients suggested that biosafety label be tagged on the inspection report and hand washing facilities be supplied in the hospital. CONCLUSIONS The hospital is responsible to popularize the knowledge about hand hygiene behavior and hospital infection education,to append specific hand washing facilities,and to improve the patients' understanding of biosafety and hand washing compliance.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture plus auricular point sticking in treating polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Method A total of 80 PCOS patients were randomly divided into a treatment group of 40 cases and a control group of 40 cases. The treatment group was intervened by acupuncture plus auricular point sticking, while the control group was intervened by acupuncture only. The clinical efficacy was observed in the two groups after 3 treatment courses. Result The menstrual condition and basal body temperature (BBT) were compared in the two groups before and after the treatment. The menstrual condition and BBT in the treatment group were significantly improved (P<0.01); the menstrual condition was improved (P<0.05) and the BBT condition was significantly improved in the control group (P<0.01). The total effective rate was 82.5% in the treatment group, significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Acupuncture plus auricular point sticking can produce a satisfactory efficacy in treating PCOS.

Objective To screen serum markers in patients with PBC by high-throughput protein chips encoded by the human genome. Methods High-throughput protein chips (contains a total of 38 400protein spots, including 17 718 human genes encoding proteins) were used to screen sera from 21 PBC patients, 20 disease control patients and 10 normal controls. Bioinformatics software was used to analyze information and statistical software was used to analyze the data to confirm the serum markers of PBC. Results The detection rate of protein spots using anti-GST antibody on the chip was 97. 6%, and the signal intensity correlation coefficient of double protein spots was 0. 98. Four serum markers( PDHA1, DBT,DLAT and HK1 )were screened by high-throughput protein chips between PBC group and the control group with a statistically significant. The positive rate of the four markers in the three groups was 66. 67% ( 14/21), 5.00% (1/20) and 0(0/10); 57. 14% ( 12/21 ), 5.00% (1/20) and 0(0/10); 52. 38% ( 11/21 ),0(0/20) and 0(0/10); 52. 38% ( 11/21 ), 0(0/20) and 0(0/10) respectively. All the four markers were different in the three groups with statistically significant (PDHA1 :x2 = 16. 79, P ＜0. 01 ;Fisher exact test,P=0. 000; DBT:x2 =12.86, P＜0. 01;Fisher exact test, P=0. 004; DLAT and HK1:Fisher exact test,P ＜0. 01 or 0. 05). Of those markers, antibodies to PDHA1, DBT and DLAT were the component of AMAM2 which had been used as the marker of PBC. Antibody to HK1 was identified as new marker of PBC,whose sensitivity to PBC was 52. 38% and specificity was 100. 00%. There were no serum marker were screened between the AMA-M2 positive and negative PBC patients. Only antibody to CENPB was identified to be significantly expressed between the ACA positive and negative PBC patients ( Fisher exact test, P =0. 000). Conclusions High-throughput protein chip encoded by the human gene is a technology for quick and comprehensive screening of new markers of PBC. Antibodies to HK1 could be used as new marker for PBC with highly sensitivity and specificity. No serum marker is found between the AMA-M2 positive and negative PBC patients whereas only antibody to CENPB is identified as marker between the ACA positive and negative PBC patients.

Objective To investigate genetic polymorphisms of IRF7/KIAA1542 (rs4963128, rs2246614) and STAT4 (rs7574865) and their relationships with lupus nephritis and various autoantibodies present in Chinese Han population of SLE patients. Methods A total of 748 SLE patients and 750 healthy controls belonging to the Chinese population were enrolled into this study. They were genotyped using MALDI-TOF-MS method. Autoantibodies including anti-SSA, anti-SSB, anti-Sm, anti-RNP and anti-dsDNA were determined either by indirect immunofluorescence or double immunodiffusion methods. Results In the healthy group, rs7574865 (STAT4) T/T, T/G, G/G genotype frequency and T, G allele frequencies were as follows: 9.4% , 45. 6% , 45. 0% , 32. 2% , 67. 8% , the corresponding case group as follows: 17.0% , 48.1%, 34.9%, 41.0%, 59.0%, genotype and allele frequencies were significantly different (x2 = 26.30, P<0.01). Compared with the control group, in the case group, T/T genotype frequency and T allele frequency were significantly increased, and in three genetic models ( additive model, dominant model, recessive model), the genotype frequencies were significant difference (P <0. 01). Two polymorphic loci of rs4963128 and rs2246614 (IRF7/KIAA1542) were not statistically significant (x2 =4.49,5.32,P>0.05) in case group and control group, but the rs2246614 genotype frequencies had a statistically significant in recessive model (P <0. 05) , whereas rs4963128 genotype frequencies was no significant difference in the three genetic model (P=0.068, 0.958, 0.067, respectively). In the clinical subphenotype analysis, IRF7/KIAA1542 (rs4963128) in lupus nephritis group (OR = 2. 69, 95% CI = 1. 89-3. 82, P < 0.01) ,anti-SSA antibody group ( OR = 0. 61, 95% CI = 0. 43-0. 87, P < 0. 05 ) and anti-SSB antibody group ( OR =0. 36, 95% CI = 0. 23-0. 56, P < 0.01) of the analysis were statistically significant. At the same time, IRF7/KIAA1542 (rs2246614) in the joint comparison of positive and negative symptoms were also statistically significant (OR=1.34, 95% CI = 1. 06-1. 69, P < 0. 05). Conclusions This findings provide strong evidence suggesting that STAT4 ( rs7574865 ) is the susceptible factor of SLE in Chinese Han population. However, there is not a significant relationships between IRF7/KIAA1542 (rs4963128, rs2246614) polymorphisms and the risk of SLE, but the associations of IRF7/KIAA1542 (rs4963128, rs2246614) with the a variety of clinical subphenotypes, such as lupus nephritis, joint symptoms and production of anti-SSA antibody and anti-SSB antibody implicates IRF7/KIAA1542 as a putative candidate gene of SLE.

Objective: To discuss the difference between pyrophosphoric acid method and infrared spectrophotometry for the determination of silica content in dust. Methods: The content of silica in the laboratory comparison samples organized by CDC Occupational Health Institute in China in 2018, and purchased quality control samples were determined by pyrophosphate method.

Objective To explore the feasibility of 3D printed individualized applicator for the intracavitary HDR-brachytherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods CT scan was performed in 1 case of recurrent rT1 nasopharyngeal carcinoma and 1 case of T2 residual nasopharyngeal carcinoma and the obtained images were transmitted to 3D image processing software.The geometric contour parameters of the nasopharyngeal cavity were obtained and a pipeline was designed to make it close to the recurrent gross tumor volume (rGTV).Individualized cavity applicators were created by using 3D printer.The applicator was inserted into the patient's nasopharyngeal cavity through oral cavity.The source tube and false source were inserted into the preset pipe of the applicator.CT scan was performed again and the images were transmitted to the 3D brachytherapy planning system.Mter delineating the target volume and organ at risk,treatment plan was optimized.After completing the first treatment,the applicator was removed.Before second treatment in a few days,CT scan was reviewed to confirm whether the position was correct.Results When the applicator was inserted into the nasopharyngeal cavity,it could be fully aligned with the nasopharyngeal wall and self-fixed without additional fixation measures.Comparing the location of false source in multiple reviews of CT scan,the error was ≤ 1 mm.No significant discomfort was reported throughout the treatment.In optimized three-dimensional treatment,100％ prescription dose curve included the full rGTV,maximum dose of the brain stem and spinal cord was＜30％ prescription dose.Recurrent patients were given with a prescription dose of DT 40Gy/8 fractions/4 weeks and patients with residual tumors were given with 12Gy/2 fractions/1 week.No tumor recurrence was observed at postoperative 3 months in two cases.Conclusions The 3D printed individualized nasopharyngeal intracavitary applicator has the advantages of self-fixation,accurate location,good repeatability and good patient tolerance.The short-term outcome is effective,whereas its long-term clinical effect and adverse reactions need to be further observed.

Major air pollutants include particulate matter, ozone, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, etc. Recent posts have confirmed that air pollution has a variety of adverse health effects on people's health.For professional people, because of occupational hazards of these major atmospheric pollutants also exist in the workplace, is likely to suffer from the double hazards of occupational hazards and air pollutants in the workplace, if similar pollutants are present in the home, the daily exposure concentration of the occupational population may be significantly higher than that of the general population. Exposure limits and testing methods for major atmospheric pollutants (particulate matter or dust, ozone, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide) are set by relevant standards in workplace air, ambient air and indoor air. However, due to different places and different management departments, there are differences in the detection methods of the same indicators, which brings difficulties to estimate the total daily exposure level. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the "consistency" of the detection method of relevant pollutants in the air, in order to provide scientific basis for estimating the daily exposure level of pollutants in different populations.
