ObjectiveTo investigate the distribution of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1)subtypes and the relationship with transmission routes in Shenzhen city. MethodsThe epidemiological survey was conducted in 429 subjects with HIV-1 infection.Vein blood was collected and prepared with anticoagulation.Thereafter,the viral nucleic acid was extracted and subsequently amplified for HIV-1 env,gag genes by reverse transcription nested polymerase chain reaction. The viral sequences were analyzed using Mega software and compared with those in HIV database. The HIV-1 subtypes were confirmed and evolutionary tree was established. The gene discrete rate of different subtypes was calculated.ResultsFour hundred qualified samples were identified as CRF01_AE (n=207),CRF07_BC (n=115),CRF08 _BC (n=14),CRF02_AG (n=1),B (n=49) and C(n=14),respectively.CRF01_AE was the predominant subtype that was detected in the subjects with different transmission routes,such as homosexual contact,heterosexual contact,intravenous drug use and hospital-acquired infection. Among these,sexual contact was the most common route.There were nine cases infected with subtype B HIV-1 in 10 case who were blood borne. The gene discrete rate was more significant in subtype B HIV-1 compared to the other subtypes.According to the evolutionary tree analysis,the viruses under the same subtype formed the relatively independent clusters by different transmission routes. But some overlaps were observed as well. Conclusions Tbere are many HIV-1subtypes in HIV-1 infected subjects in Shenzhen, while the recombinant viruses present as the predominant form.Transmission routes are various with sexual contact as the most common route.Every subset distributes unevenly and forms its own characteristic.Overlap can be observed among the gene distribution of different HIV-1 subtypes.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA)combined with autologous peripheral blood stem cells(PBSC)transplantation in the treatment of lower extremity ischemic disorders.Methods Fourty-two cases of lower extremity ischemic disorders in the treatment group were treated with PTA and autologous peripheral blood stem cells injection and 40 cases in control group were treated with PTA exclusively.Results All the procedures were successful.In treatment group,ABI improved from 0.32 ±0.11 to(at the 3rd month)and 0.49 ±0.13(at the 6th month)(t=-6.765,-6.040,P＜0.05)while TcPO_2 improved from(26.1 ± 2.3)mm Hg to(32.7 ±4.2)mm Hg(at the 3rd month)and(34.5 ±2.7)mm Hg(at the 6th month)(t=-8.901,-14.250,P＜0.05).In control group,ABI improved from 0.30 ±0.12 to 0.47 ±0.15 and 0.47 ±0.130=-5.631,-5.873,P＜0.05)while TcPO_2 increased from(25.9 ±2.4)mm Hg to(28.9 ±2.9)mm Hg(at the 3rd month)and(28.9 ± 2.1)mm Hg(at the 6th month)(t=-5.090,-5.389,P＜0.05).There was significant difference in TcPO_2 on follow-up between the two groups after the treatment(P＜0.05).Conclusion Autologous PBSC transplantation in combination of PTA was effective for the treatment of lower extremity ischemic disorders.PBSC injection helps to increase TcPO_2.

Objective To investigate the HBV- positive pregnant women about the knowledge of the route of hepatitis B transmission, hepatitis B hazards, health care during pregnancy, announcements of child- care to explore targeted and effective health education model with self- designed question-naires. Methods Nurses in obstetrics department carried out this questionnaire investigation in the outpa-tients of HBV- positive pregnant women, after that the results underwent statistic analysis. Results The overall knowledge of HBV- positive pregnant women in announcements of child- care, health care during pregnancy and hepatitis B hazards was not very well, and the announcements of child- care was the lowest, followed by health care during pregnancy and hepatitis B hazards. The route of hepatitis B transmission was better, but still not satisfactory. The education should highlight these areas. Well- educated women were better than those who lack education. The age between 20 to 30 years old was better. Conclusions The HBV-positive pregnant women is lack of heath knowledge, so we should gave health intervention in a multi- level, multi- stage standardized and a variety of ways.

Background Excessive production,deposition and contraction of extracellular matrix (ECM) of human lens endothelial cells (LECs) is one of main causes to posterior capsular opacification (PCO).Researches indicated that Wnt3a protein was involved in production of ECM and fibrosis in epithelial cells,but its effect on LECs is still unclear.Objective This study aimed to elucidate the roles of Wnt3a in production of ECM and gel contraction of LECs.Methods Lipofectamine-mediated transient transfection technique was used to introduce cDNA of Wnt3a gene and pcDNA3-HA vector into the LEC cell line SRA01/04 to act as Wnt3a transfection group and control group respectively.After 48 h of transfection,Western blot was used to detect the expression of Wnt3a,main components of ECM Col-Ⅰ,Col-Ⅳ and integrin β1.Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression and distrubition of α-SMA and F-actin;collagen contraction was observed by mingling SRA01/04 cells with Col-Ⅰ.Results After 48 hours of transfection using lipofectamine 2000,the expressions of wnt3a protein in SRA01/04 cells was 0.703 ±0.105 in the wnt3a transfected group,and that in the control group was 0.290 ± 0.066,showing a significant difference between the two groups (t =5.782,P＜0.01).Western blot assay showed that the expression levels of Col-Ⅰ and Integrin β1 was 0.697±0.021 and 0.875±0.055 in the Wnt3a transfected group,and which was significantly higher than 0.370±0.020 and 0.580±0.030 in the control group (t =19.600,8.156,both P＜0.01).The expression level of Col Ⅳ in the Wnt3a transfected group was higher than that of the control group (0.430±0.020 vs 0.383 ±0.031),but the difference was not significant (t =2.514,P＞0.05).Immunofluorescence assay revealed that F-actin and α-SMA were weakly expressed in the cell membrane primarily in the control group,while they were strongly expressed in the cell membrane,cytoplasma in the Wnt3a transfected group.Tewnty-four hours after addtion of Col-Ⅰ,the gel contraction area ratio appeared to be more obvious in comparison with the 8 hours (64.1％ ±2.3％ vs 98.9％ ± 1.0％),and gel contraction area ratio was lower in the Wnt3a transfected group than that in the control group (64.1％ ± 2.3％ vs 93.9％ ± 3.1％).Conclusions The overexpression of Wnt3a activates the production of ECM,and the remodeling of celluar skeleton and cellular contraction.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of technologies for arteriovenous malformation(AVM ) ,which are skull to boneless head CTA by surface shaded display technique (hereinafter referred to as the SSD‐CTA technology) .Methods Totally 27 patients of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were selected ,which were diagnosed with AVM by VCTDSA .The original data to our hospital CT workstation were imported ,SSD‐CTA technology to bone reconstruction were performed ,and the data of the two groups were compared .Another 5 patients in our hospital which were diagnosed with AVM by SSD‐CTA examination were selected ,and compared the results with DSA .Results The quality score of SSD‐CTA reconstructed image was less than that of VCTDSA ,but the diagnosis of the two technologies for AVM had no significant statistical difference (P>0 .05) .The number of AVM patients from our hospital wsa too less to do the statistical analysis .The detail resolution of SSD‐CTA was less than DSA ,but the diagnosis of SSD‐CTA was consistent with DSA .Conclusion SSD‐CTA has clinical practical val‐ue ,can be used as a check ,intracranial venous malformation diagnosis .
