Objective To investigate the correlation between hepatitis B virus(HBV)markers and AFU,ALT,GGT.Methods 570 eases of HBV-infected people were divided into 4 groups according to the different performance modes.150 healthy people were considered as control group.rate method was used to detect AFU,ALT and GGT.Estimate the differences between the groups were compared.Results The comparison between the AFU,ALT,GGT in different performance mode of HBV and the control group showed:the differences of group 1,group 2 and group 3 were statistically significant(P＜0.01),the difference of group 4 was not significant(P＞0.01).The correlation between AFU,ALT,GGT of different performance mode showed:the changes of AFU and ALT,GGT in group 1,group 2 and group 3 were positively change-related.But the changes of AFU,ALT and GGT were not clearly related.The distribution of the rise of serum enzyme activity in different performance mode showed:the AFU,ALT and GGT rised in different proportion in group 1,group 2 and group 3.Conclusions The AFU,ALT and GGT activity of HBVinfected persons should be detected at the same time,and evaluate the damage of liver cells.This will do help to predict the progression of hepatitis.

Objective To screen and identify the recombinants from the cDNA library of the adult Paragonimus west-ermani (PwA) for immunodiagnosis and immunoprophylaxis. Methods PwA cDNA library was screened with the PwA antigen immunized rabbit sera(IRS) pre-absorbed by the extract of E. coli XLl-Blue. The recombinants from positive clones were amplified by PCR, sequenced and cut off by KpnI/BarnHI and, then sub-cloned into pRESETB vector. The fusion protein was expressed,analysed by SDS-PAGE and identified by Western blotting with immune rabbit serum against worm antigen of Paragonimus westerrnani. Results The inserted cDNA fragment from the positive clone Pw-2 was about 800 bp, which contained an open reading frame(ORF) encoding Pw pre-procathepsin L belonging to cysteinase family. Expression product of Pw-2 was a fusion protein of 32 kDa, which can be recognized by immune rabbit serum against worm antigen of Paragonimus 晈esterrnani. Conclusion A recombinant plasmid Pw-2 encodes Pw pre-procathepsin L is constructed.

Objective To compare the research status and hotspots of immunotherapy for liver cancer at home and abroad. Methods Papers about immunotherapy for liver cancer published from the establishment to 2019 were searched in PubMed database and Chinese database. Information were extracted and sorted by BICOMB-2 software, and then we created the word matrix and co-occurrence matrix of high-frequency subject headings. The cluster analysis of subject headings was conducted by gCLUTO 1.0. NetDraw 2.089 was used to draw social network diagrams, UCINET 6.212 was used to conduct the centrality analysis. Results There were 2 081 foreign literatures and 901 Chinese literatures, involving 655 foreign periodicals and 275 Chinese periodicals. Four themes of immunotherapy for liver cancer were determined: the correlation between the immune inoculation of hepatitis B patients and the occurrence of liver cancer, the study between dendritic cells and immunotherapy for liver cancer, the study of the combination of radiotherapy and immunotherapy on liver cancer, and related research of natural killer cells and liver cancer immunotherapy. Conclusion The number of researches on immunotherapy for liver cancer have shown an increasing trend year by year. We can learn from the international research status and hotspots to create a new way for liver cancer treatment.

Objective:To investigate the correlations of β cell dedifferentiation in non-diabetic subjects with risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:Immunofluorescence staining with insulin and β cell dedifferentiated marker ALDH1A3 was used to evaluate the β cell dedifferentiation levels in 38 non-diabetic and 23 T2DM. Correlation analyses were performed between β cell dedifferentiation levels and available clinical parameters including age, body mass index, HbA 1C level, triglycerides, and cholesterol levels in non-diabetic subjects. Results:β cell dedifferentiation level defined by the positive expression of ALDH1A3 in β cells(ALDH1A3 + INS + cell proportion) was significantly elevated in T2DM subjects( P<0.001). In PreD subjects, ALDH1A3 + INS + cells proportion were decreased( P=0.050) and negatively correlated with HbA 1C( r=-0.44, P=0.006), but not with age and body mass index. The analysis of correlation with lipidemic parameters showed that ALDH1A3 + INS + cells proportion was positively correlated with plasma total cholesterol level( r=0.39, P=0.045), but not plasma total triglyceride. Conclusion:ALDH1A3 + INS + cells were found to be decreased in prediabetes, suggesting that there may be enhanced β-cell identity in prediabetes to compensate for insulin secretion requirements; ALDH1A3 + INS + cells were elevated in people with high plasma total cholesterol levels, suggesting that total cholesterol may be one of the factors that induce β-cell dedifferentiation.

Background and Objectives: Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) are recognized as an advantaged source for the prevention and treatment of diverse diseases including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, alterations in characteristics of ASCs from the aforementioned T2DM patients are still obscure, which also hinder the rigorous and systematic illumination of progression and pathogenesis. Methods: and Results: In this study, we originally isolated peripancreatic adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells from both human type 2 diabetic and non-diabetic donors (T2DM-ASCs, ND-ASCs) with the parental consent, respectively. We noticed that T2DM-ASCs exhibited indistinguishable immunophenotype, cell vitality, chondrogenic differentiation and stemness as ND-ASCs. Simultaneously, there’s merely alterations in migration and immunoregulatory capacities in T2DM-ASCs. However, differing from ND-ASCs, T2DM-ASCs exhibited deficiency in adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation, and in particular, the delayed cell cycle and different cytokine expression spectrum. Conclusions The conservative alterations of T2DM-ASCs in multifaceted characteristics indicated the possibility of autologous application of ASCs for cell-based T2DM treatment in the future.

Objective To retrospectively compare the efficacy of Serva NB1 collagenase with Vitacyte GOLD collagenase on islet isolation of pancreas.Methods All the human pancreata were obtained from Chinese organ donors.In GMP laboratory,the pancreata were trimmed and distended with Serva NB1 collagenase (Serva NB1,n =12) or Vitacyte GOLD collagenase (Vitacyte GOLD,n =5) and digested according to a modified Ricordi semi-automatic protocol,and the digestion duration was recorded.The digested islets were then collected and washed,followed by the continuous density purification in a Cobe 2991 cell separator.The islet yield,purity,viability and glucose-stimulated insulin release (GSI) were determined each time after purification.Quantity and quality of isolated islets were determined by digestion efficacy.Results The digestion duration in Vitacyte GOLD collagenase group was significantly shorter than in Serva NB1 collagenase group to achieve the same digestion endpoint (P＜ 0.05).The islets yields of different sizes were variable between the two groups.The Vitacyte GOLD collagenase digestion produced more islets with a diameter range of 50-100 μm than the ServaNB1 collagenase digestion (P＜0.05),but the latter yielded more islets with a diameter range of 251-300 μm and 301-350μm (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in total islets yields,viability,and GSI between two collagenase digestions (P＞0.05).Conclusion Both Vitacyte GOLD collagenase and Serva NB1 collagenase can be used for the clinical islet isolation in China.

Objective:To evaluate the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy combined with hiatal hernia repair surgery for weight loss and antireflux.Methods:This study included 21 obese patients with gastroesophageal reflux who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy at the Weight Loss Metabolism Center of the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery of Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from Dec 2019 to Dec 2020. Patients were divided into simple bariatric surgery group (9 cases) and simultaneous combined surgery group (12 cases).Results:In the combined surgery group, 1 case had postoperative gastric leakage. The postoperative body weight, waist circumference, and BMI indexes of the two groups showed a downward trend ( F=5.154, P=0.013; F=14.319, P<0.001; F=6.725, P=0.004). There was a statistically significant difference in the excess weight loss in both the two groups at 6 months after the operation compared to 1 month after the operation ( t=8.927, P<0.001; t=8.926, P<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in postoperative lower esophageal sphincter resting pressure and Gerd symptom score in the bariatric surgery group compared with preoperative ( t=-0.891, P=0.507; t=0.629, P=0.298). The postoperative Gerd symptom score of the patients in the combined surgery group was significantly lower than that before the operation, and the resting pressure of the lower esophageal sphincter was significantly higher than that before the operation, ( t=-10.539, P<0.001; t=5.066, P=0.038). Conclusion:Combined surgery have the same weight loss effect as in simple bariatric surgery in obese patients with gastroesophageal reflux, in addition to stronger anti-reflux effect.

Objective: To investigate the effect factors of liver enzymes elevation by monitoring the liver function changes before and after intraportal islet transplantation. Methods: 16 diabetic patients who received intraportal islet transplantation in our hospital were analyzed. The levels of aspartic aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT)and total bilirubin (TBil)were monitored after islet transplantation. Results: Among those 16 diabetic patients who received intraportal islet transplantation, 11 patients showed an increased AST and 8 patients showed an increased ALT, among which a 2.5-fold increase in AST was observed in 4 patients and over 1.5-fold elevation of ALT was observed in 3 patients. The level of TBil were in the normal range before and after transplantation in all patients. Transplanted tissue volume of islet was the main factor for significantly increased AST (P<0.05) in this study. It is also shown that the change in portal pressure is related to the AST elevation after islet transplantation. Conclusions The amount of transplanted islet tissue volume is related to the liver enzymes elevation after intraportal islet transplantation. Therefore, the improvement of the purity of islet to reduce the amount of transplanted tissue could be benefit to prevent the liver injury after islet transplantation. Meanwhile, the purified islets should be injected as slowly as possible to maintain a stable portal pressure.

OBJECTIVE To quantitatively and qualitatively analyze the progress of potentially inappropriate medication （PIM） research by means of bibliometrics， and to predict the hotspots and trends of PIM， so as to provide reference for PIM research in China. METHODS The research literature related to PIM were searched from Web of Science core database， and the publication trend of the literature was analyzed on the bibliometric online analysis platform and CiteSpace 5.8.R3 software. The research results were visualized and analyzed， and the research hotspots of PIM were summarized through gCLUTO. RESULTS About PIM research， the annual number of the literature issued from 2012 to 2021 showed a continuous growth trend totally； the United States had the largest number of literature （241 pieces）； the University of Sydney in Australia was the research institution with the largest number of literature （59 pieces）； O’Mahony D from University College Cork， Ireland， published the most literature （23 pieces）； the research of PIM involved 57 disciplines， among which there was the largest number of literature about gerontology （384 pieces）； International Journal of Clinical Pharmacy was the journal with the largest number of literature （61 pieces）； Journal of the American Geriatrics Society was cited most frequently （1 197 times）. The hotspots of PIM research mainly focused on seven aspects： the standard of PIM， the safety and economy research of PIM， the risk factors research of PIM， the PIM research of chronic patients， the PIM research of antipsychotics， the research of pharmacists’ participation in PIM management， and the PIM research about palliative care of tumor patients. CONCLUSIONS The heat of research on PIM has been on the rise， and there is little cooperation between countries and institutions， and more cooperation is needed. In the future， the focus of Chinese pharmacists’ research on PIM may be on the deep localization of PIM standards， PIM intervention and precise medication guidance， and PIM management of specific diseases and drugs.
