Objective To investigate the expression of S-phase kinase associated protein 2 (Skp2) in rats with acute liver failure (ALF) and its significance. Methods There were 256 male SD rats used in this study, among which 240 were injected with D-galactosamine (D-GaIN) to set up ALF model. The rats were divided into 3 groups: ALF model group, free hepatocellular transplantation group, microencapsulated hepatocyte transplantation group, which were intraperitoneally injected with 2 mL of RPMI 1640 culture medium, free hepatocellular suspension and microencapsulated hepatocyte suspension, respectively. The other 6 rats were in control group and the rest 10 rats were used for hepatocyte isolation. Expressions of Skp2 protein in hepatocytes of rats at different time points were detected by immunohistochemical technique. Levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and total bilirubin (TBil) were detected by automatic biochemistry analyzer. The survival rate in each group was observed. Comparisons among groups were done using one-factor analysis of variance. Results Levels of ALT, AST and TBil decreased more significantly by intraperitoneal transplantation of microencapsulated hepatocytes than those by intraperitoneal transplantation of free hepatocytes (P<0. 05). Skp2 labeling indices after 36 h of injection in ALF model group, free hepatocellular transplantation group and microencapsulated hepatocyte transolantation grouo were (28. 2±6.1) %, (41.4± 10. 5) % and (68. 0±10.8) %, respectively (F=29. 08 , P<0. 05). There were 4, 6 and 11 out of 15 rats survived in the 3 groups, respectively. Conclusion The dynamic observation of Skp2 expression could be used to judge the regeneration of hepatocytes.

Objective To investigate the clinical superiority of Chaiqin tiaogan capsule in the treatment of hepatitis B virus.Methods 126 cases of patients admitted to hospital from January 2014 to June 2015 were randomly divided into two groups, the control group (interferon and lamivudine) and the experimental group (interferon, lamivudine and Chaiqin tiaogan capsule), each group of 63 cases.The HBsAg and HBV-DNA negative rate, the changes of liver function and the incidence of adverse reactions in the experimental group were observed and compared.Results The HBsAg negative rate and the HBV-DNA negative rate after treatment three and six months in the control group were significantly higher than the experimental group ( P<0.05).The levels of ALT, AST and DBiL in the control group and the experimental group were significantly decreased, and the levels of ALT, AST and DBiL after treatment six months in the control group were significantly lower than the experimental group ( P <0.05 ) .There were no serious adverse reactions in the control group and experimental group, there was no significant difference between two groups.Conclusion Chaiqin tiaogan capsule can effectively inhibit HBV replication and improve liver function, it has good tolerability and safety applied to clinical.

Objective To investigate the correlation of serum total bile acid (TBA) levels with the inflammation grades of liver tissue in chronic liver diseases.Methods Cyclophorase assay was used to detect the serum TBA levels in 172 patients with various chronic liver diseases,and the inflammation grades of liver tissue were determined by liver biopsy.The correlation between serum TBA levels and the inflammation grades of liver tissue was evaluated using SPSS 12.0 software.Results Serum TBA level was positively correlated with the inflammation grade of liver tissue ( r =0.275,P < 0.01 ).The inflammation grade reached G2 when serum TBA was 20 μmol/L.Conclusion Serum TBA level may be useful for evaluating the inflammation grade of liver tissue in chronic liver diseases.

Objective To analyze the clinical features and risk factors for mortality of patients with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) in Zhoushan, the eastern coastal of China with high incidence of severe fever with thrambocytopenia syndrome bunyavirus infection, to provide reference for reducing the mortality rate of SFTS.Methods Clinical data of 107 cases of SFTS from Zhoushan Hospital during June 2011 to June 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the prognosis, patients were divided into survival group and death group.The clinical features and the laboratory results were analyzed with a case-control method to analyze the prognostic factors.Normal distribution data were compared with the independent t test.Kolmogorov-Smirnov Z test were used in data with skewness distribution.Categorical data were analyze by chi-square test.The related risk factors were analyzed with the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve and multivariate unconditioned logistics regression analysis.Results Seventeen cases among 107 STFs patients died, yielding the mortality rate of 15.9%.The proportion of patients suffering from two or more underlying diseases, with disorders of consciousness, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), the level of creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) as well as sepsis-related or sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score in death group were all significantly higher than those in the survival group (all P<0.05).The Ca2+ level and fibrinogen level in death group were significantly lower than those in the survival group (both P<0.05).Indexes mentioned above were analyzed by ROC curve, and the calculated cut-off value was set as the optimal diagnostic thresholds.These data were then included into the multivariate logistic regression analysis.It turned out that Ca2+<1.625 mmol/L, APTT >73.45 s, SOFA scores >9 were the independent risk factors for mortality of SFTS (OR=6.947, 8.459 and 11.770, respectively, all P<0.05).Conclusion Ca2+, APTT and SOFA score are the independent risk factors for prognosis of SFTS, which provide reference for prognostic evaluation of SFTS.

Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 2018;34(11):914-917
Objective To understand the basics and existing problems of labor dispatchers at institutions of healthcare and public health, and to provide reference for its improvement. Methods In October 2017, 3548 dispatchers from 29 such institutions in Beijing were investigated to find out the basic salary and welfare, career development and labor disputes of their dispatchers. Descriptive statistics was used to analyze the data. Results Among those dispatched of 29 institutions surveyed, 51. 2% were employed upon staffing quota, 31. 1% were dispatched and 17. 7% were employed in other forms. Labor dispatchers had higher educational level as a whole, mainly college and undergraduate education, accounting for 79. 6%;their social security was well assured, and there were few cases of labor disputes. Conclusions It is necessary to further improve the management of labor dispatch personnel, highlight post management, improve salary and welfare mechanism, smooth career development channels, and strengthen the awareness of risk prevention and control.

Objective:
To analyze the prevalence of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus(SFTSV)infection in Zhoushan island of Zhejiang province and the duration of serum positive IgG antibody in patients infected with SFTSV.
Methods:
One thousand one hundred and twenty-two healthy people from Zhoushan island of Zhejiang province were recruited for cross-sectional study in August 2019, including 641 from non-epidemic areas and 481 from epidemic areas. The serum SFTSV-IgG antibody was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the positive rates of SFTSV-IgG antibody were compared between people from the epidemic areas and non epidemic areas. Meanwhile, the antibody titer of SFTSV-IgG in 19 patients confirmed between July 2011 and June 2018 was detected by indirect ELISA. SPSS 17.0 software was used to analyze data.
Results:
The positive rate of SFTSV-IgG antibody was 1.5% (7/481) in the epidemic area, which was higher than that in the non-epidemic area (0/641) (
