Objective To evaluate prove the clinical efficacy of anti HBV therapeutic vaccine in the treatment of chronic HBV carriers. Methods 600 patients diagnosed as chronic HBV carrier based on the criteria formulated by the National Conference of Viral Hepatitis in 1997 were enrolled for the study. The patients were randomly assigned into 2 groups. In the first group, 300 patients were given anti HBV therapeutic vaccine subcutaneously once a month, tagether with vitamin C 500mg p o. once a day for 12 months. Patients in the second group received normal saline 2 ml/month by subcutaneous injection and vitamin C 500mg/day p o. for 12months. There were no significant deferences in the age, sex, duration of the illness and the positive rate of serum HBV markers between the 2 groups. At the week 12, 24 and 48 after treatment, the patients were reexamined in the hospital. Serum HBsAg, HBeAg, HBV DNA, anti HBe, anti HBs and ALT were assayed before the treatment and at week 12, 24 and 48 during the course of the therapy. The efficacy of the treatment was evaluated on basis of the results of the assessment of parameters described above at week 48. After completion of the treatment, 208 patients in the treatment group and 196 cases in the control group were followed up for 12 months, and serum HBV markers were checked at the 12th month. The changes in HBV markers during the follow up study were analysed to evaluate the sustained effect after the therapy was ceased. Results The seronegative rates of serum HBsAg, HBeAg and HBV DNA in the treatment group were 14 7%, 32 0% and 37 3%, respectively, and they were significantly higher compared with the control group ( P

Objective:To compare the incidence of complications associated with arm and chest ports by Meta-analysis.Methods:To Janurary 2019, studies published in PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane, CBM and Wanfang regarding complication comparison between arm ports and chest ports were searched. Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was applied to evaluate the quality of studies. Review Manager 5.3 software was applied to conduct this meta-analysis.Results:A total of 19 articles covering 4 203 patients were included. The results showed that the incidence of pneumothorax ( OR value was 0.22, 95% CI0.05-0.88, P value was 0.03) and artery injury ( OR value was 0.24, 95% CI0.07-0.77, P value was 0.02) between arm ports group and chest ports group were statistically significant. No significant difference was observed in infection ( OR value was 0.81, 95% CI0.58-1.12, P value was 0.20), thrombosis ( OR value was 1.25, 95% CI0.64-2.45, P value was 0.52), extravasation ( OR value was 1.13, 95% CI0.54-2.35, P value was 0.75), catheter misplacement ( OR value was 1.58, 95% CI0.95-2.61, P value was 0.08), skin incision ( OR value was 0.64, 95% CI0.23-1.74, P value was 0.38), sepsis ( OR value was 0.68, 95% CI0.27-1.70, P value was 0.41) and exudate ( OR value was 0.88, 95% CI0.32-2.42, P value was 0.80). Conclusion:The incidence of pneumothorax and artery injury in arm ports is significantly lower than in chest ports, there was no difference in other complications. More studies are needed to further confirm the advantages of arm ports.

Epilepsy is a chronic and recurrent paroxysmal disease which is a manifestation of brain disorder caused by many reasons. The medication adherence of epilepsy children is affected by various factors and remains to be improved. This paper reviewed the measuring methods, current situation, influencing factors and intervention of medication adherence among epilepsy children so as to provide a reference for improving medication adherence and treatment effects of epilepsy children.

Objective:To investigate whether in vitro cultured human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) express sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP), assess their susceptibility to hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and analyze the role of NTCP during HBV infection. Methods:BMSCs were infected with HBV-positive serum under different conditions. HBV DNA load in cell culture supernatants as well as in BMSCs and the amount of hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis B virus e antigen (HBeAg) in cell culture supernatants were detected. To analyze the role of NTCP, BMSCs were first transfected with small interfering RNA targeting NTCP (NTCP-siRNA) and then infected with HBV-positive serum under different conditions. Virus loads and the amount of HBsAg and HBsAg were also detected. Western blot assay was performed to measure the expression of NTCP in BMSCs in each group.Results:In vitro cultured adherent BMSCs were susceptible to HBV infection albeit with a really low efficiency, but the infection efficiency was significantly increased when infecting the BMSCs in suspension. NTCP was expressed in BMSCs and the expression could be upregulated during HBV infection, especially in BMSCs in suspension. HBV infection was blocked when BMSCs were transfected with NTCP-siRNA. Conclusions:In vitro cultured human BMSCs were susceptible to HBV infection and the expressed NTCP served as a functional receptor for HBV. Human BMSCs could be used as a highly susceptible and stable cell model that needed no molecular adjuvant modification for research on the early stages of the HBV life cycle and for development of antiviral therapy.

Objective? To explore the effects of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) on negative emotion and medication compliance in school-age children with epilepsy. Methods? Totally 68 school-age children with epilepsy hospitalized from May 2017 to June 2018 were selected by convenient sampling. The children admitted between May and November 2017 were included into the control group (n=34), and the children admitted from December 2017 to June 2018 were included into the intervention group (n=34). Patients in the control group received conventional nursing care, while patients in the intervention group received CBT on this basis. The Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED), Depression Self-Rating Scale for Children (DSRSC) and Medication Compliance Questionnaire were used to evaluate the children before and 2 months after intervention. Results? The SCARED and DSRSC scores of the intervention group were lower than those of the control group, and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＜0.05). The Medication Compliance Questionnaire score of the intervention group was higher than that of the control group, and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＜ 0.05). Conclusions? CBT can improve the negative emotion and medication compliance of school-age children with epilepsy.
