Objective To investigate the expression and early diagnosis value of CD64 index levels in peripheral blood cells in patients with postoperative traumatic sepsis.Methods A number of 420 trauma patients were enrolled in the study,and they were divided into the postoperative traumatic sepsis group(130 cases)and postoperative general trauma group(290 cases)according to the clinical manifestations. The CD64 levels in peripheral blood were measured by flow cytometry,and the levels of C-reactive protein(CRP)and white blood cell count (WBC)were detected.The diagnostic value of these indexes on postoperative traumatic sepsis were evaluated.Results The CD64 index, CRP and WBC levels in postoperative traumatic sepsis group were significantly higher than postoperative general trauma group(P <0.05). After appropriate treatment,the CD64 index,CRP and WBC levels decreased significantly compared with the preoperative levels(P <0.05). The correlation analysis showed that the CD64 index in peripheral blood and CRP level were positively correlated(r =0.79,P <0.01).How-ever,the CD64 index in peripheral blood and WBC level were of no significant correlation(r =0.028,P >0.05).The ROC curve analysis showed that when CD64 index(7.21)considered as the boundary for early diagnosis of postoperative traumatic sepsis,the sensitivity and spe-cificity of diagnosis for postoperative traumatic sepsis were 85.1% and 87.8%,the area under the ROC curve(AUC)was 0.865(95%CI 0.784 ~0.929),which was significantly better than CRP index.Conclusion The expression of CD64 is higher in patients with postoperative traumatic sepsis,which can be used as an effective indicator for early diagnosis of postoperative traumatic sepsis,and it has an important clin-ical application value.

Purpose To study the levels and subcellular localization of β-catenin in 5 different molecular subtypes of breast carcino-mas. Methods An immunohistochemical study was undertaken for measuring the levels and subcellular localization ofβ-catenin in 58 breast carcinomas. Results ( 1 ) The cytoplasmic expression of β-catenin was 21. 1%, 50%, 60%, 100% and 60% ( TNBC 84. 6%) in Lumina A, Lumina B, HER-2-OE, basal-like breast carcinoma ( BLBC) and uncl phenotype respectively. High cytoplas-mic expression was associated with the BLBC and TNBC subtypes ( P<0. 05 ) . ( 2 ) An association was identified between high cyto-plasmic expression of β-catenin, and high tumor grade (P<0. 01), abnormal E-cadherin, positive Ki-67 and CK5/6 (P<0. 05), negative ER and PR (P<0. 01), but no association was observed for lymph node metastasis, tumor size and patients’age. Conclu-sion An association is identified between high cytoplasmic expression, and high tumor grade, positive Ki-67 and CK5/6, negative ER and PR, that means a high cytoplasmic expression ofβ-catenin is associated with an adverse outcome in breast cancer. High cytoplas-mic expression are associated with the BLBC and TNBC subtypes whcih recognizing Wnt signaling as a rational target in TNBC and BLBC. The results of the study have implications for therapeutic target identification and the design of future clinical trials for TNBC and BLBC.

Objective To explore the value of bone marrow biopsy ( BMB) in early diagnosis of aggressive NK cell leukaemia( ANKL). Methods The clinical data of ten cases with ANKL were retrospectively analyzed,morphology, immunophenotype and hybridization in situ of bone marrow were analyzed. Results In all cases, BMB showed hypercellular, with 4 cases markedly hypercellular. Atypical neoplastic cells demonstrated focal and fascicle growth pattern and were composed of median-sized cells with a few cytoplasm, slightly irregular nuclei, fine chromatin, indistinct nucleoli and some mitotic counting. Characteristic histocytes with haemophagocytosis were observed in the bone marrow slides. The neoplastic cells were positive for CD2、CD3e、CD7、CD56、TIA-1. EBER was found positive in all cases. Conclusion Bone marrow biopsy and immunochemistry were essential and reliable diagnostic tool in early diagnosis of ANKL.

Many species of the genus Asarum plants are used as Chinese traditional or folk medicines, in Chinese which are known as "Xixin" (Asari Radix et Rhizoma) , "Bei-Xixin" , "Hua-Xixin" and "Nan-Xixin" , etc. In order to get a clear picture of resources distribution and varieties on Chinese markets of the crude drug Xixin and provide scientific basis for their resource conservation and sustainable use, during recent years we conducted field investigations and market researches many times. The results showed that the resources of both official Xixins and non-official Xixins were decreased because of the ecological environment damage and over-digging, especially species whose population size was small. Bei-Xixin derived from A. heterotropoides var. mandshuricum was the most species on the Chinese markets except for a few areas of China. Hua-Xixin derived from A. sieboldii and non-official Xixins were mainly used in their producing areas. Cultivation of Hua-Xixin should be greatly developed, and wild resources of non-official species must be preserved strictly.

Blast injury of the chest injury is the most common wound in modern war trauma and terrorist attacks, and is also the most fatal type of whole body explosion injury. Most patients with severe blast injury of the chest die in the early stage before hospitalization or during transportation, so first aid is critically important. At present, there exist widespread problems such as non-standard treatment and large difference in curative effect, while there lacks clinical treatment standards for blast injury of the chest. According to the principles of scientificity, practicality and advancement, the Trauma Society of Chinese Medical Association has formulated the guidance of classification, pre-hospital first aid, in-hospital treatment and major injury management strategies for blast injury of the chest, aiming to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

AIM: To explore the mechanism of fructus lycii in treating dry eye based on network pharmacology and experimental verification.METHODS: Taking “fructus lycii” as key words, the active ingredients and target of fructus lycii were searched by using Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform(TCMSP). Gene targets related to dry eye(DE)were searched by GeneCards and OMIM databases. The target genes of fructus lycii and DE were imported into Venn software to obtain the intersection target map of them. After that, the data were imported into the String database to obtain the PPI protein-protein interaction network diagram. Using Cytoscape3.7.2 software, the PPI protein-protein interaction network diagram was constructed for active ingredients, target sites and related diseases of fructus lycii. The Bioconductor platform and R language were used for gene ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis. And the key targets in the pathogenesis of DE were verified by experiments.RESULTS: Through TCMSP, 45 types of effective chemical components of fructus lycii, 174 target genes corresponding to active components and 131 common target genes with DE were screenedout. In accordance with the network topology of “drug-composition-disease-target”, 27 main effective components of fructus lycii were found in the treatment of DE. The PPI network was analyzed according to the high degree value, which is the key targets of fructus lycii for DE treatment, mainly including AKT1, VEGFA, CASP3, IL1B, JUN, PTGS2, CXCL8, etc. According to GO enrichment analysis, 166 biological functions and processes of fructus lycii for DE treatment were obtained. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that 31 signaling pathways were involved. Additionally, experimental verification displayed that the protein expressions of AKT1, interleukin-6(IL-6), tumor necrosis factor(TNF-α)and IL-17 in conjunctiva tissue of the DE model group were significantly increased.CONCLUSIONS: Through network pharmacology, this study confirmed that the treatment of DE by fructus lycii is a complex process involving multi-components, multi-targets and multi-pathways, and that the treatment of DE by fructus lycii is mainly regulated by anti-inflammatory and apoptosis-related molecules.

A novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) epidemic has occurred in Wuhan, Hubei Province since December 2019, caused by a novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) never been seen previously in human. China has imposed the strictest quarantine and closed management measures in history to control the spreading of the disease. However, severe trauma can still occur in the NCP patients. In order to standardize the emergency treatment and the infection prevention and control of severe trauma patients with hidden infection, suspected or confirmed infection of 2019-nCoV, Trauma Surgery Branch of Chinese Medical Doctors' Association organized this expert consensus. The consensus illustrated the classification of the NCP patients, severe trauma patients in need of emergency surgery, emergency surgery type, hierarchical protection for medical personnel and treatment places. Meanwhile, the consensus standardized the screening, injury severity evaluation, emergency surgical treatment strategy and postoperative management strategy of severe trauma patients during the epidemic period of NCP, providing a basis for the clinical treatment of such kind of patients.
