OBJECTIVE To investigate the degree of risk of viral prevalence of HBV,HCV and HIV through blood transfusion in Beijing Hospital in China,and to assess the need of a national Haemovigilance System. METHODS Retrospectively,7883 blood bank specimens (collected from 2004 to 2007) were re-examined using 8 indicators (including 5-item Hepatitis B,anti-HCV,anti-HIV and Syphilis) for the prevalence of most common viral infection. RESULTS From the blood bank specimens,the prevalence of HBsAg was 0.88% (69),the anti-HBc positive blood,only the anti-HBc was found in 2.65% of the specimens,while both the anti-HBc and the anti-HBe were found in 2.09% of the specimens. The prevalence of anti-HCV was 0.09% (7). CONCLUSIONS We need to establish the national Haemovigilance System to strengthen the monitoring of the above HbsAg,HBcAb and HCV indicators to prevent the transfusion-transmitted infection. Only in this way can the public confidence in blood safety be improved.

Doctors must carry out informed consent in medical treatment.However,to ensure patients' rights and interests mostly,this obligation needs exempted in some special cases.This article studies the insufficiency in the existing regulation on doctors' obligations exemption.It also lists some constructive suggestions based on the existing theory to solve this problem.

Objective To analyze the schistosomiasis epidemic of 4 national pilots in Dongting Lake regions during 5 years period, and provide references for control strategy and policy making. Methods Four longitudinal monitoring pilots were set up in Dongting Lake regions from 2000 to 2004, and the field work in pilots was carried out based on “National Scheme on Schistosomiasis Epidemic Monitoring”. Results During the monitoring period, the infection rate of Schistosoma japonicum kept at 4% in Dongjia, 5% in Xinshang and over 12% in Quanxing, but in Changjiang, the rate was 8.92% in the first year of monitoring period, and stayed at 4% in the next 4 years. For all pilots, 20-49 age group had the highest infection rate, with the rate in male being higher than that in female and centering on the fishermen, farmers and students in occupation. There was the occurrence of acute and new advanced cases. The infection rate in domestic animals was fluctuated at 20%. There was extensive distribution of infected snails on marshlands outside embankments. Conclusion Schistosomiasis is seriously endemic in Dongting Lake regions, and intensive control measures are necessary.

Objective To explore whether Helq deletion affect the pluripotency of stem cells. Methods Helq knockout embryonic stem cells were obtained by CRISPR?Cas9 gene editing technique. Results The results of immunoflu?orescence analysis showed that the expression of Oct4 and Nanog had no obvious difference to that of the control cells. The Helq-/ - embryonic stem cells could produce viable pups by tetraploid complementation, indicating that their pluripotency was not affected. Meanwhile, we found that day 2 epiblast?like cells also were obtained through differentiation of the Helq-/ - embryonic stem cells in vitro. Immunostaining and real?time PCR analysis showed that the gene expression of Helq-/ - epiblast cells were similar to the wild type cells. Conclusions Taken together, it is proved that the genomic in?stability caused by Helq deletion does not affect the pluripotency of pluripotent stem cells.

Objective To study the morphological changes of external eyes before and after epicanthoplasty combined with blepharoplasty and to explore a simple and efficient method to correct epicanthus. Methods A total of 120 eyes in 60 patients were operated on with the inverted L-sharp epicanthoplasty combined with double-eyelid blepharoplasty and the follow-up began 2 months after the surgery. The height and physiognomic length of the eyelid and the length and angle of the eyelash were measured and compared with preoperative meansurements, as well as the distance of the inner canthus. The ratios between the inner-canthus distance and the physiognomic eyelid breadth and the diameter of eyebrow and eye were also described. Results The contours of the eyelid fissure and the double-eyelid were natural and the surgical scare was seen unconspicuous 3 months after the operation. Changes in the palpebral fissure , the angel and length of the exposed eyelash were all significantly different by paired-sample t test (P < 0.01). The vertical and horizontal lines through the entocanthion and the vertical line through the gnomic ectocanthion combined with the horizontal line through the brow ridge formed a square structure. Conclusions This inverted L-shape epicanthoplasty combined with blepharoplasty may be effective in reconstructing the contours of the entocanthions as well as the shape of the double eyelids. It can also achieve better cosmetic effects in the proportional relation between the eyes and eyebrows. Therefore, it deserves clinical promotion.

BACKGROUND:Whether controling of post-injury inflammatory response combined with neural stem cel (NSC) transplantation can improve the curative efficacy for spinal cord injury stil remains unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the repair of spinal cord tissue, myelin regeneration, axon regeneration, motor function recovery and the possible mechanism after early application of tumor necrosis factor α antagonist (Etanercept) combined with tyrosine kinase C (TrkC) gene-modified NSC transplantation. METHODS:TrkC-overexpressed NSCs (TrkC-NSCs) were constructed by lentiviral transfection technique. The rat models of spinal cord transection injury were prepared, and then subjected to Etanercept combined with TrkC-NSCs transplantation. The number of neurons and neuroregeneration after injury were measured by Nissl's staining, immunofluorescence and western blot. The rat motor function was detected by Basso Beattie Bresnahan score and evoked potential. The myelin regeneration was detected by electron microscopy and toluidine blue staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the other groups, the Etanercept combined with TrkC-NSCs transplantation group had more survived anterior horn motor neurons at 28 days after injury, more myelin-encapsulated axons, higher Basso Beattie Bresnahan score, greater amplitude of the evoked potentials, and relatively shorter latency (alP < 0.05). These findings indicate that early application of tumor necrosis factor-α antagonist combined with TrkC-NSCs transplantation after spinal cord injury in rats can effectively promote myelin regeneration, axon regeneration, and further promote motor function recovery.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of the SPM-based interhemispheric asymmetry analysis (SIAA) of 18F-FDG PET brain imaging in localization of temporal lobe epileptic foci.Methods A total of 73 patients (42 males,31 females,average age: (27.10±9.78) years) diagnosed as temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and 30 healthy volunteers (17 males,13 females,average age: (33.79±5.46) years) from March 2012 to July 2015 were enrolled in this retrospective study.18F-FDG PET brain imaging was performed on all subjects to localize temporal lobe epileptic foci.The results of 18F-FDG-PET were analyzed by SIAA,visual analysis and asymmetry index (AI) analysis.The accuracy of the three methods was evaluated according to the postoperative pathological results and curative effect.χ2 test and partition of χ2 test were used to analyze the data.Results The accuracies of localization with SIAA,visual analysis and AI analysis were 87.67％(64/73),75.34％(55/73) and 69.86％(51/73),respectively (χ2=6.993,P<0.05).The accuracy of SIAA was higher than that of visual analysis and AI analysis (χ2 values: 5.818 and 8.481,both P<0.017),while there was no significant difference between AI analysis and visual analysis (χ2=0.500,P>0.017).Conclusion The SIAA of 18F-FDG PET brain imaging may be a more objective and accurate method in localization of TLE foci.

OBJECTIVE: A three-dimensional morphology of the maxillary sinus was reconstructed. We studied the relationship between sinusitis and three-dimensional morphology, volume as well as gasification coefficients. METHOD: One hundred and fifty adult subjects were selected in this study, and divided into three groups: normal bilateral maxillary sinus, unilateral maxillary sinusitis and bilateral maxillary sinusitis, with fifty cases in each group. Use Siemens helix CT for sequential scanning of the nasal-sinus. After scanning, the DICOM data was recorded in DVD-R and transferred into another computer for reconstruction and measurement. RESULT: The volume of the normal maxillary sinus group was (15 018.64 +/- 473.36) mm3. The volume of the maxillary sinusitis group was (14 971.86 +/- 360.93)mm3. There was no significant difference between the values of volumes for the normal maxillary sinus group and maxillary sinusitis group. The gasification coefficient was 0.345 +/- 0.071 for the normal maxillary sinus group, 0.252 +/- 0.057 for the maxillary sinusitis group. There was significant difference between the two groups. CONCLUSION Maxillary sinus reconstruction permits more vivid visualization of the three-dimensional structure and three-dimensional shape of the maxillary sinus. The occurrence of the maxillary sinusitis is closely related to the three-dimensional shape of the maxillary sinus and the gasification coefficient measured. The more regular the three-dimensional shape of the maxillary sinus, with the gasification coefficient >0.300, the lower the probability of the maxillary sinusitis. Otherwise, the probability increases. Adult inflammation of maxillary sinus may be originated from a relatively larger volume of maxillary sinus in childhood and adolescence.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical application of the vacuum-sealing drainage (VSD) in the prevention of lymph leakage after inguinal lymphadenectomy.

METHODSFrom September 2003 to September 2013, 60 cases who underwent inguinal lymph nodes dissection received VSD (n = 30), or traditional pressure dressing and drainage( control group, n = 30) after operation. The flap blood supply, healing process and incidence rate of lymph leakage were observed.

RESULTSTwenty-eight cases in VSD group were effective. Eleven cases were cured, ten cases were effective, and nine cases were invalid in control group. The cure rate, effective rate and healing period were significantly different between the two groups (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONSThe incidence of lymph leakage after inguinal lymphadenectomy can markedly decrease with VSD application. VSD could be an ideal preventive method for post-operative lymph leakage.
