3. Construction of expression vector for NT4-ADNF-9 fusion gene
Academic Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University 2009;21(2):104-108
Objective: To construct the prokaryotic expression vector bearing fusion gene NT4-ADNF-9 and lay foundation for further study on genetic therapy of neurosensory deafness. Methods: By means of asymmetrical primer/ template, double stranded cDNA of activity dependent neurotrophic factor-9 (ADNF-9) was obtained, which included restriction enzymes sites on the two extremities. ADNF-9 cDNA was ligated to the signal and leader peptides of neurotrophin 4 (NT4), and the fusion gene was named NT4-ADNF-9. Then it was subcloned into prokaryotic expression vector pBV220, and called pBV220/ NT4-ADNF-9. Results: Evidences of DNA sequence analysis and restriction enzymes digestion showed that we recombined ADNF-9 cDNA to the 3′terminal of the signal and leader peptides of NT4, and the fusion gene was subcloned into pBV220 successfully. Bioactivity of the products was proved that it could support the cell survival and neurite growth in the primary cultures of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of embryonic day-8 chicken neurons as compared to the control. Conclusion: Prokaryotic expression vector pBV220/NT4-ADNF-9 can be constructed successfully and the bioactivity is satisfactory.

Objective To study the rehabilitation for batches of the wounded suffering from the earthquake in hospital. Methods 91 cases of trauma occurring in the earthquake were reported. Results There was no dead and any complication happened. 90 cases could self-care as they discharged. Conclusion Multiple specialty rehabilitation would be effective on the wounded suffering from earthquake.
7.Clinical analysis of elderly patients with osteoporotic hip fractures
Chinese Journal of General Practitioners 2017;16(8):618-620
Clinical data of 448 patients aged ≥60 years with osteoporotic hip fractures admitted in Shanghai Huashan Hospital between January 2010 and December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Among 448 cases,there were 143 males and 305 females;196 cases aged 80-89 years (43.8%) and 137 cases aged 70-79 years (30.6%);304 cases of femoral neck fracture (67.9%) and 144 cases of intertrochanteric femoral fracture (32.1%);the fractures caused by fall in 328 cases (73.2%) and comorbidity with hypertension and diabetes mellitus in 415 cases (92.6%).Two hundred and sixty eight patients were followed up for 2 years,among whom re-fractures occurred in 17 cases.The study indicates that health education is important for prevention of osteoporotic fractures in elderly people.

Objective:To explore the discrimination against the patients with mental disorders and current situation of awareness of mental health knowledge of medical postgraduates and their relationship.Methods:A questionnaire survey was conducted among 132 medical postgraduates in October 2016 using the assessment scale of discrimination against patients with mental disorders and mental health knowledge awareness questionnaire,which derived from mental health work indicators survey and evaluation program issued by the General Office of the Ministry of Health in 2010.Results:There was significant gender difference (P <0.01)in the overall score and the score of each dimension of assessment scale of discrimination against patients with mental disorders,and the score of mental health knowledge was (13.93-± 3.13).There was significant negative correlation between scores of assessment scale of discrimination against patients with mental disorders and mental health knowledge.Multiple linear regression analysis showed that awareness of mental health knowledge could predict the discrimination against the patients with mental disorders and all its factors.Conclusion:Awareness of mental health knowledge in medical post graduates can predict the discrimination against the patients with mental disorders.Medical universities should carry out corresponding education and publicity work with pertinence.

Objective To assess the blood safety under the current sero-screening program and gain experience on how to implement NAT as a routine assay for blood screening in China. Methods Sera from 103,539 non-remunerated donors of Shanghai blood center were tested by Chiron's Procleix(TMA HIV-1/HCV Assay in 2 study stages with 8 and 24 sample-pool respectively. Results 5 NAT positive samples were found to be Anti-HCV EIA-2 test positive at the same time. No window period cases of HIV-1/HCV were found in this donor group. But 275 (0.27% ) anti-HCV and 107 (0. 10%) anti-HIV false positive samples were identified by the second sero-screening. Conclusion The blood quality of Shanghai city was high to be close to the level of developed countries and the window period risk of HIV-1 and HCV was less than 1:100,000. With its high sensitivity and specificity,Procleix( TMA HIV-1/HCV Assay can be used in routine blood screening in China.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the effect of astragaloside IV on neurological function and the protein expres -sion of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), Notch1 and NF-κB in acute cerebral hemorrhage (ACH) rats.METHODS:ACH model in rats was established via injection of autologous blood , and the rats were divided into 4 groups:sham, ACH, ACH+astragaloside IV (100 mg/kg) and ACH+astragaloside IV (200 mg/kg) groups.The impairment of neurological func-tion in each group was graded , and the brain coefficient and water content were calculated .The serum level of NSE was measured by ELISA.Additionally, the expression of Notch1 and NF-κB was determined by Western blot .RESULTS:As-tragaloside IV improved the neurological function and decreased the brain coefficient and water content in ACH rats .Moreo-ver, the ACH-induced increase in NSE was inhibited after astragaloside IV treatment .Similarly, astragaloside IV also sig-nificantly attenuated the expression of Notch 1 and NF-κB in ACH rats.CONCLUSION: Astragaloside IV attenuates the impairment of neurological function in ACH rats , which may be through decreasing the NSE level and down-regulating the expression of Notch1 and NF-κB.
