An assay for the affinity of serum anti-HBc in chronic hepatitis B patients and asymptomatic HBsAg carriers by 125I,22Na double isotope radioimmunoassay is described.In 7 asymmptomatic HBsAg carriers and 9 chronic hepatitis B patients.the affinity of anti-HBc was 3.25±2.13×106L/Mole in the former,whereas 0.75±0.56×106L/Mole in the latter.The titers of anti-HBc did not correlate to the affinity of anti-HBc and its possib]e role in the pathogenesis of hepatitis B is discussed.

Objective To study the percentage and cause of new seizure types in epilepsy patients and attempt to evaluate the value of new seizure types.Methods All 1074 eapilepsy patients were envolled in the retrospectively study.The types of seizure were diagnosed according to International League Against Epilepsy seizure classification and neuroimaging results of the patients.The Wilcoxon signed rank sum test was used to assess the difference of age at first seizure and mean duration of epilepsy patients with and without new seizure types.The chi-square test was used to compare the abnormal proportion of EEG and neuroimaging results of epilepsy patients.Results Two hundred and thirty-one(21.5%)of 1074 epilepsy patients experienced new seizure type.Five hundred and eighty-four patients had partial seizure with 132 (22.6%)experiencing new types of seizure while 490 patients had generalized seizure with 99(20.2%)experiencing new types of seizure.Five hundred and seventy-six(53.6%)had abnormal EEG and 237 (22.1%)had abnormal neuroimaging in 1074 epilepsy patients.A hundred and twenty-three(52.3%)of 231 patients with new seizure types had abnormal EEG,and 75(32.5%)of them had abnormal neuroimaging. The possible causes for the new types of seizure could be found in 41 patients.There were no significant difference in the age of the first onset between the patients with and without the new types of seizure while there was significant difference in the average course of disease between them(χ~2=18.511-23.836.P＜0.05).There were significant differences in the rates of abnormal results of examination of nervous system and imaging outcomes.Conclusions There may be different causes of new seizure types.The study of new seizure types is helpful in diagnosis,treatment and prevention of epilepsy.

Objective　To explore the possibility of R plasmid (pRST98) encoding resistance to antimicrobial agents in S. typhi mediate virulence to its host bacteria. Methods　pRST98 was transferred into a less virulent strain of S. typhimurium RIA for creating a transconjugant pRST98/RIA. The standard S. typhimurium virulence strain SR-11 which carries a 100kb virulence plasmid was used as a positive control, and RIA as a negative one. Infection with S. typhimurium was employed to assess the effect of pRST98 on the virulence of host bacteria by LD50 of peroral (p.o.) and intraperitoneal (i.p.) infection of BALB/c mice. After oral inoculation of the bacteria into BALB/c mice, mesenteric lymph nodes, spleen and liver were examined for quantity of bacteria and for the histopathological changes. The three strains were also studied for their in vitro adhesion and invasion of HEp-2, CHO and HeLa cells. Three chromosomally isogenic strains, i.e., plasmid-containing wild-type S. typhi strain, plasmid artificially cured strain and plasmid-reintroduced into the cured strain were compared for their resistance to the bactericidal activity present in human, rabbit and guinea pig sera. Results　The p.o. and i.p. LD50 of pRST98/RIA was 700 and 75 folds less than that of RIA. The bacteria counting in mesenteric lymph nodes, spleen and liver were more (P<0.05) and more severe histopathological changes were observed in pRST98 harboring S. typhimurium. However, pRST98 did not affect the adhesion and invasion of S. typhimurium to the cells. Experiments showed that pRST98 mediated resistance to serum bactericidal effect in host bacteria (P<0.05). Conclusion　This is the first report about a plasmid carrying genes coding for drug resistance and virulence in S. typhi. The data presented here suggested that novel virulence gene or related sequences, which are important in the pathogenesis of Salmonella infection could exist on pRST98.

Objective To explore the value of time-invariant CTA in assessing collateral circulation of patients with acute ischemic stroke and assisting clinicians in predicting clinical outcomes.Methods The score of collateral circulation was compared between single-phase and time-invariant CTA.NIHSS score was calculated at admission and two weeks after admission.A 50% or greater decrease in NIHSS score over two weeks was considered as major neurologic improvement,which showed good clinical outcome;otherwise,it indicated bad outcome.The predictive ability of time-invariant CTA for clinical outcomes was assessed based on ROC curves.Results Compared with single-phase CTA,more collateral vessels could be viewed on time-invariant CTA.The average score of collateral circulation on time-invariant and single-phase CTA was 1.50±0.69 and 1.15±0.49 respectively (P=0.006<0.05 ).Time-invariant CTA had the moderate predictive ability for clinical outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AUC=0.810;P=0.032<0.05). Conclusion The time-invariant CTA showed potential value in assessing collateral circulation of patients with acute ischemic stroke and assisting clinicians in predicting clinical outcomes.

Objective To study the effects of caesarean section on breastfeeding.Methods Divides into 2 groups stochastically 120 example c-section parturient woman,each group of 60 examples,the control group gives obstetrics conventional nursing;The observation group carries on the target-oriented behavior intervention and psychological unblocking by professional nurse to the parturient woman:Uses the pre-natal health education seepage,instructs the parturient woman to feed correctly nurses the skill,promotes the wet-nurse nutrition,dredges intervention measures promptly and so on mammary gland tube.Results The observation group parturient women compare the control group to secrete young timing advance,secrete the young quantity to increase,the early nursing success ratio is high,the difference has the significance (P<0.01).Conclusion Early interventions to parturient after caesarean section is propitious to their health recover and elevate the success rate of early breast feeding.

Objective To investigate the effects of rehabilitation intervening in different stage on activities of daily living of old stroke patients. Methods 74 old cases were divided into 3 group according to the time from onset of stroke to rehabilitation intervention: group A (＜3 months), group B (3～6 months), and group C (>6 months). They were treated with routine rehabilitation for 2 months and assessed with Barthel Index before and after rehabilitation. Results All the patients improved their ADL significantly after rehabilitation (P=0.000), and those in group A improved more than in group C (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between group A and B, and group B and C (P>0.05). Conclusion The rehabilitation can effectively improve the ADL of old stroke patients. The early the rehabilitation intervenes, the better the ADL is.

BACKGROUND:Restenosis after angioplasty severely limited the application and long-period therapeutic effects of percutaneous coronary intervention. Changes in smooth muscle cel phenotype and their proliferation are important mechanisms of restenosis after angioplasty.
OBJECTIVE:To use bal oon in vivo transduction of osteopontin short hairpin RNA (OPN-shRNA), to inhibit osteopontin expression at the injured blood vessels of a rabbit model of experimental atherosclerosis, and to prevent restenosis after angioplasty.
METHODS:A total of 20 rabbit models of atherosclerosis were established and randomly equal y assigned to empty plasmid group and OPN-shRNA plasmid group. The plasmid recombinant OPN-shRNA and empty plasmid were transferred to the ventral aorta by bal oon.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After bal oon dilatation, specific green fluorescence was detected in the layer of vascular smooth muscle in the two groups. Moreover, with prolonged time of transfection, fluorescence intensity gradual y decreased. Compared with the empty plasmid group, the expanded artery lumen area obviously increased in the OPN-shRNA plasmid group, and plaque burden evidently reduced. Results indicated that bal oon catheter used in regional blood vessels in rabbit models of atherosclerosis could successful y transduce OPN-shRNA plasmid. The restenosis of the expanded blood vessels lessened, and thrombus burden relieved. It is of great importance to prevent the occurrence of restenosis after angioplasty in rabbit models.

Objective To investigate the effect of comprehensive nursing intervention on the quality of life of patients suffering from hypertension. Methods A total of 120 cases of essential hypertension were evenly randomized into observation group and control group. Both groups received conventional antihypertensive drug and nursing, and additionally, the observation group was given intervention of comprehensive nursing including dietary regulation, exercise training, emotional care and medication instruction. The intervention lasted 3 months. Before and after the intervention, traditional Chinese medicine ( TCM) symptom classifying list and World Health Organization ( WHO) QOL-BRIEF were applied to evaluate the therapeutic effect of the two groups. The changes of blood pressure, clinical manifestation and the quality of life were also compared between the two groups. Results (1) After intervention, the systolic pressure and diastolic pressure were both improved in the two groups ( P<0.05 or P<0.01 compared with those before treatment) , and the improvement in the observation group was superior to that in the control group (P<0.01). (2) After intervention, the scores of TCM symptom scores and QOL-BRIEF total scores were improved in the two groups ( P<0.05 or P<0.01 compared with those before treatment) , and the improvement in the observation group was superior to that in the control group ( P<0.01). Conclusion TCM comprehensive nursing intervention can effectively relieve hypertension and improve the quality of life of hypertension patients.
