Objective:To analyze the incidence characteristics of occupational chronic benzene poisoning under two diagnostic criteria.Methods:In March 2020, 126 patients who were divided into the old criteria group (74 cases) and the new criteria group (52 cases) were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were diagnosed with occupational chronic benzene poisoning, and were diagnosed in our hospital during the period of January 2009 to December 2019. The gender composition, age of onset, years of benzene exposure, industry distribution, work type, benzene concentration in working environment and diagnostic grade of the two groups of patients were analyzed and compared. The follow-up of 22 benzene poisoning observation subjects under the old criteria were retrospectively analyzed.Results:There were no statistically significant differences in gender composition, age of onset, years of benzene exposure, industry distribution and work type between the old criteria group and the new criteria group ( P>0.05) . In the old criteria group and the new criteria group, 41.9% (31/74) and 17.3% (9/52) of the patients' workplace benzene concentration exceeded the maximum allowable concentration, respectively. The composition of different benzene concentration in the workplace between the two groups showed statistically significant ( P<0.05) . In the old criteria group, the proportion of mild poisoning (79.7%, 59/74) was the majority, while in the new criteria group, the proportion of moderate and severe poisoning (51.9%, 27/52) were the majority, and there was statistically significance in the composition ratio of diagnostic grade between the two groups ( P<0.05) . Under the old criteria, after folow-up of 22 cases of benzene poisoning observation subjects, we observed that 8 cases (36.4%) progressed to the level of chronic benzene poisoning. Conclusion:The revision of diagnostic criteria for benzene poisoning may affect the composition of diagnosis classification. Based on the rights and interests of workers, formulating more complete diagnostic criteria and system policies will be more conducive to the development of occupational benzene poisoning prevention and control.

Objective: To explore the impact of ticagrelor on myocardial microcirculation in patients of non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: A total of 80 NSTEMI patients treated in our hospital from 2015-03 to 2015-12 were enrolled. All patients received coronary angiography (CAG) and PCI, they were randomly divided into 2 groups: ticagrelor (TA) group and clopidogrel (CA) group, n=40 in each group. The baseline condition, PCI related parameters, plasma levels of SOD, MDA at pre- and 24h, 72h post-PCI were compared, the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) within 30 days after PCI was also compared between 2 groups. Results: The baseline condition, proportion of infarction-related vessels, average length and diameter of implanted stents were similar between 2 groups, all P>0.05. Compared with CA group, TA group had the less post-operative CTFC in LAD and RCA, P<0.05; while CTFC in LCX was similar between 2 groups, P>0.05. The ratios of acute pre-operative, post-operative TIMI grade 3 and slow flow incidence were similar between 2 groups, P>0.05. The peak values of CK-MB and cTnI in TA group were lower than CA group, P<0.05. Compared with baseline condition, MDA levels at 24h and 72h post-operation were increased in both groups, all P<0.001; compared with CA group, TA group had the lower MDA level at 24h post-operation, P=0.023, MAD was further reduced at 72h post-operation in TA group, P=0.043. Compared with baseline condition, SOD levels at 24h and 72h post-operation were decreased in both groups, all P<0.001; compared with CA group, TA group had the higher SOD level at 24h post-operation, P=0.013, SOD was elevated at 72h post-operation in both groups, the elevation was more obvious in TA group, P=0.049. The incidence of MACE was similar between 2 groups within 30 days of PCI,. Conclusion: Ticagrelor could improve myocardial microcirculation in NSTEMI patients after PCI; it was safe and without obvious adverse effects.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the clinical value of serum 1,3-beta-D-glucan (BG) and galactomannan (GM) detection for early diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis (IA) in patients after renal transplantation.
METHODSBlood samples collected from 69 renal transplant recipients were divided into diagnosis group, clinical diagnosis group, suspected diagnosis group, and non-infected group for detection of serum BG and GM.
RESULTSThe mean serum levels of BG in the diagnosis group, clinical diagnosis group, and suspected diagnosis group were significantly higher than that in non-infected group (P<0.05). The sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of BG was 69.49%, 70%, 93.18% and 35.71% for IA diagnosis, respectively. The serum levels of GM in the 3 diagnosis groups were also significantly higher than that in the non-infected group (P<0.05) with the sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of 84.75%, 90%, 96.15% and 52.63% for IA diagnosis, respectively.
CONCLUSIONIncreased serum BG and GM levels can serve as the evidence for early diagnosis of IA with a high diagnostic sensitivity and specificity in renal transplant recipients.

Objective To investigate the effect and underlying mechanisms of ghrelin in a rat model of renal fibrosis. Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups , including sham operation +saline or brain gut peptide treatment group , model + saline or brain gut peptide treatment group. Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) was established by left ureteral ligation. 7 days and 14 days after operation, the rats were sacrificed , while the kidney tissue of obstruction side was harvested for pathlogical changes through Masson coloration. Expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-β1) and phosphorylated Smad3 (p-Smad3) in renal tissues were analyzed through immunohistochemistry. Expression of α-SMA and TGF-β1 mRNA was detected by real-time-PCR. Apoptosis kidneys cells were marked with TUNEL. Results Ghrelin inhibited renal fibrosis by reducing the production of collagen , restraining extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition and decreasing the expression of α-SMA. Meanwhile, ghrelin inhibited the accumulation of myofibroblasts by blocking the transforming growth factor-β1/Smad3 (TGF-β1/Smad3) signaling pathway. Moreover, ghrelin could attenuate renal tubular cell apoptosis induced by UUO injury. Conclusion Ghrelin can reduce renal fibrosis and renal cell apoptosis induced by UUO , demonstrating that ghrelin is a potent antifibrotic agent that may have therapeutic potential for patients with obstructive nephropathy.
