BACKGROUND:Screening of fare blood types has been successively implemented and completed in Europe, America and Japan, but there is a large gap in China. Previous studies have mainly focused on the southern Han populations, and little is reported on PCR-SSP systematic analysis of gene frequencies of rare blood groups in Xinjiang Uygur populations. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the gene frequency distribution of RBC MNS, Duffy, Kel, Dombrock, Diego, Kidd, Scianna, Colton and Lutheran blood groups from Xinjiang Uygur populations, thereby providing a strategic support for human population genetics and clinical blood deployment. METHODS:PCR-SSP method was used to make genotyping and statistical analysis in 158 Xinjiang Uygur persons from nine rare blood groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Gene frequencies of these nine rare blood groups were M=0.579 1, N=0.420 9, S=0.174 3, s=0.800 9, Fya=0.699 4, Fyb=0.300 6, K1=0.015 8, K2=0.984 2, Doa=0.234 2, Dob=0.765 8, Dia=0.047 4, Dib=0.952 6, JKa=0.541 2, JKb=0.452 6, Sc1=1.000, Sc2=0, Coa=0.994, Cob=0.005 9, Lua=0, Lub=1.000, Aua=0.810 2, Aub=0.189 9. Results from chi-square test showed that the observed value and expected value of genotypes were in line with the law of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P > 0.05), and in the MNS blood group of Xinjiang Uygur population, it was rarely found that S-s- frequency was 0.025 3 in four cases and Jka-b- frequency was 0.006 3 in one case. This study demonstrates that the frequency distribution of MNS, Duffy, Dombrock and Diego blood groups in the Xinjiang Uygur population, with its own unique frequency distribution characteristics, is different from that in other ethnic populations; the gene distribution of Kel, Kidd and Colton blood groups shows either similarity or difference between the Xinjiang Uygur population and reported Tibet and Han populations; Scianna and Lutheran blood groups show a monomorphic distribution in the Xinjiang Uygur population, which is similar to that in the Tibet and Han populations. These findings provide the basic data for exploring the origin and evolution, ethnic hematology and construction of rare blood database of the Xinjiang Uygur population.

OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of baicalin on Aβ25-35 induced learning and memory deficits and changes in autophagy-related genes in mice so as to explore the related mechanisms of Alzheimer disease (AD) treatment . METHODS C57 mice were administered with 3μL Aβ25-35 3 mmol·L-1 by intracerebroventricular injection to establish an AD model. Baicalin was given by intracerebroventricular injection at the dose of 25, 50 and 100 mg · kg-1 for 15 d, respectively. The total distance and the central grid residence time were measured in the open-field test. The escape latency and the time to reach the platform were monitored in the Morris water maze trial. The autophagic vacuoles in the hippocampus of the mice were observed by transmission electron microscopy before the protein expressions of microtu?bule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) and Beclin1 in brain tissue were analyzed by Western blot?ting assay. RESULTS Intracerebroventricular injection of Aβ25-35 could reduce the total distance from (3984±321)cm to (2790±306)cm and extend central grid residence time from (3.6±1.2)s to (8.8±2.9)s in the open-field test. The escape latency of water maze also increased from (22.0 ± 1.9)s to (38.8 ± 2.2)s. Autophagic vacuoles or late autophagic vacuoles and increased Beclin1 and LC3 and protein level were observed in the hippocampus after Aβ25-35 injection. Intraperitoneal injection of Baicalin 50 and 100 mg · kg-1 for fifteen consecutive days extended the total distance in open-field test to (3705 ± 337)cm and (3968 ± 448)cm, respectively, while the central grid residence time was reduced to (5.6 ± 1.8)s and (3.9±1.5)s, respectively. The total time taken to reach the platform in water maze test was reduced to (28.6± 1.9)s, (22.9 ± 1.7)s. Mitochondrial swelling, vacuolar membrane structure or autophagic vacuoles were visible in the hippocampus. LC3 and Beclin1 protein expression was significantly up-regulated(P<0.01). CONCLUSION Baicalin shows protective effect against Aβ25-35 induced learning and memory deficits, and this effect may be related to the activation of autophagy in the mouse hippocampus.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of different enteral nutrition methods combined with swallowing rehabilitation training in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease complicated by dysphagia.Methods:A total of 120 patients with Alzheimer's disease and dysphagia who received treatment in the Department of Geriatric Medicine, the Second Hospital of Jinhua from October 2019 to March 2021 were included in this study. They were randomly and evenly divided into four groups: A, B, C, and D. Patients in groups A, B, C, and D were given nasogastric tube feeding, naso-intestinal tube feeding, nasogastric tube feeding + swallowing rehabilitation training, and naso-intestinal tube feeding + swallowing rehabilitation training, respectively. After 12 weeks of treatment, total response rate, nutritional status, and complications were compared between the four groups.Results:After 12 weeks of treatment, total response rate in group D was the highest (100.0%), which was significantly higher than that in the other three groups (group A: 13.3%; group B: 40.0%; group C: 73.3%; χ2 = 45.88, 25.71, 9.23, all P < 0.05). After treatment, the nutritional status [body mass index (BMI): (21.42 ± 1.85) kg/m 2, (23.17 ± 2.03) kg/m 2] and patient satisfaction (60.0%, 100.0%) in groups C and D were significantly superior to those in group A [BMI: (19.01 ± 1.72) kg/m 2; patient satisfaction: 10.0%) and group B [BMI: (19.86 ± 1.69) kg/m 2; patient satisfaction: 33.3%]. Group D had the best nutritional status ( t = 7.01, 5.14, 1.78, all P < 0.05) and the highest patient satisfaction ( χ2 = 49.09, 30.00, 15.00, all P < 0.001). Conclusion:Naso-intestinal tube feeding combined with swallowing rehabilitation training is the best treatment for Alzheimer's disease complicated by dysphagia among the studied enteral nutrition feeding methods and therefore deserves clinical promotion.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with cerebral infarction induced by symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis.Methods One hundred and eighty-nine cerebral infarction patients with symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis were collected. According to National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores at 72 h of admission minus baseline NIHSS scores, these patients were divided into END group (n=51,≥2) and non-END group (n=138, <2). Clinical data and laboratory results were retrospectively collected. Univariate Logistic regressionwas used to analyze the differences of above data between the two groups, and multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of END in patients with cerebral infarction induced by symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis.Results There were significant differences between the END group and the non- END group in age ([69.1±10.6] yearsvs.[65.8±10.4] years), baseline NIHSS scores (10.6±4.6vs. 5.1±4.1), intracranial artery stenosis site (anterior circulation, 82.4%%vs. 66.7%), intracranial artery stenosis degree (occlusion, 66.7%vs.44.2%), cholesterol level ([6.7± 1.0] mmol/Lvs. [4.8±0.8] mmol/L) and lymphocyte count ([2.3±2.2]×109/Lvs.[1.5±0.6]×109/L,P< 0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age (OR=2.411, 95%C1: 1.102-5.273,P= 0.028), intracranial artery occlusion (OR=122, 95%CI: 3.635-4102,P=0.007) and baseline NIHSS scores (OR=2.464, 95%CI: 1.189-5.105,P=0.015) were risk factors for END.Conclusion Patients with symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis induced cerebral infarction, especially those with old age, intracranial artery occlusion or low baseline NIHSS scores, need more attention to avoid END.

9.Current situation of nosocomial enterovirus infection in newborn infants and its prevention and control strategies
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2020;35(11):817-819
Enterovirus is a common cause of neonatal virus infection, which is primarily transmitted by fecal-oral and respiratory routes and can cause nosocomial infection and outbreak in nursery or neonatal intensive care unit.Most infants with enterovirus infection are asymptomatic or just have mild self-limiting symptoms.Severe infection is less common but with significantly increased mortality, and may be complicated by the encephalitis/meningoencephalitis, myocarditis and/or hepatitis.Early recognition and prompt isolation of infants with enterovirus infection are important strategies for nosocomial infection control.
