Objective To investigate the prevalence of TT virus infection in pregnant women in Shenzhen and the role of mother-to -child transmission route in the TTV infection. Methods TTV DNA were detected by nested PCR in sera, cord blood and breast milk samples from 400 mother-infant pairs. TTV DNA positive mothers were followed up for 6 months for monitoring TTV DNA. Thirty two TTV DNA PCR products amplified from blood and milk samples of 13 mother-infant fairs were cloned and sequenced. Results By means of PCR, TTV DNA were detected in 62 of mothers' serum samples, 4 of 400 cord blood samples, and 20 of 400 milk samples, respectively. Therefore, 6.5%(4/62) of infants are likely to be infected with TTV from their mothers during the fetal period. Direct sequencing of TTV DNA from 13 mother-child pairs showed identical isolates (nucleotide homology from 97.5% to 99%), Follow-up sera of 42children, whose mothers were TTV DNA positive, showed 16 cases turned out to be existence of TTV viremia at 6 months old. Conclusions Our data proved the mother-to-child transmission route of TTV infection.TTV can be transmitted transplacentally and postnatally by the way of breast feeding as well. The increase of TTV prevalence during the 6 months after birth, suggests the postnatal transmission route of TTV may be of more importance, and further study is needed to address whether preventive measure should be done.

Objective To study the role of the chimeric hsp70/CD80 DNA vaccine for treatment for TB. Methods C57BL/6N mice challenged with H37Rv were immunized with the chimeric hsp70/CD80 DNA vaccine, hsp70 DNA vaccine and BCG in order to compare the therapeutic role of these vaccines. Results The levels of interferon ? (IFN-?) in the serum of mice in hsp70/CD80 group (1336.98?129.64) pg/ml was significantly higher than in group BCG (121.54?56.39) pg/ml, pcDNA3 (192.00?64.36) pg/ml and pcDNA3 hsp70 (542.33?99.77) pg/ml. The growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in live and spleen were inhibited significantly in hsp70/CD80 vaccinated mice. Conclusions The chimeric hsp70/CD80 DNA vaccine was more efficient than BCG and hsp70 DNA vaccine alone in treating TB.

Objective To study the distribution of the G/A variant at position -30 of the glucokinase gene promoter in southern Chinese subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and to investigate the association between different genotypes and indices of glucose metabolism. Methods Four hundred and fourty four unrelated Chinese subjects 〔aged (50.8?12.2)years〕 without diabetics were studied, among them 222 subjects with NGT and 222 with IGT. The G to A substitution at position -30 of the glucokinase promoter, resulting in the loss of a BsiHKA Ⅰ cut site, was detected after BsiHKA Ⅰ digestion of PCR amplified genomic DNA. Results Allele frequency of the A variant was 18.2% in NGT (similar to finding in native Japanese) and 19.8% in IGT subjects. Fasting plasma glucose level was significantly higher in subjects with the A allele (n=153; GA:AA=137:16), when compared to the GG subjects (n=291), 〔(5.35?0.59 vs 5.19?0.53) mmol/L, P=0.006〕. Higherfastingglucoselevelwasalsofound when only IGT subjects with the A variant and GG allele were analyzed 〔(5.54?0.58 vs 5.35?0.52) mmol/L, P=0.02〕. In subjects with NGT, there was no significant difference in fasting plasma glucose levels between different GCK genotypes. Conclusion GCK gene promoter -30 G/A variant is associated with higher fasting plasma glucose levels, and may contributes to the development of IGT in Southern Chinese.

Objective To analyze the content, quality, the type of nursing documents and the actuality of domestic emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI), and to provide basis and reference for the development of more objective and scientific preoperative nursing guidelines. Methods Wanfang DATA, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), CqVIPwere retrieved by computer, and supplemented by manual searches.Then the articles which in accordance with inclusion criteria were analyzed by descriptive analysis. Results A total of 114 literatures from 2004 to 2016 were involved, most of them were presented from 2010 to 2014, all of them were published in nearly 70 kinds of journals. There were merely 9 kinds of nursing journals, 26 literatures in all. Literatures came from different levels of hospital, including 47 provincial hospitals, 50 municipal hospitals, 17county hospitals. Only 3 of them had fund support. According to the types of research, there were 61 quasi- experimental studies, 35 retrospective analysis and 18 experience summarization. The most of literatures about perioperative nursing and whole nursing were 39. Nursing experience literatures were 27, nursing cooperation or nursing intervention or nursing study were 15, others were 12. Only preoperative nursing were 4. All of this content were much the same, with minor innovativeness. Conclusions Researches of domestic nursing scholars on intraoperative and postoperative nursing of emergent PCI are more than preoperative nursing, and the attention to preoperative nursing is not high, we should strengthen the importance to preoperative nursing and increase the study of nursing before the operation in order to strive for the precious time when rescuing patients with acute myocardial infarction.
