Objective To compare the survival rates from two conservative strategies in the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma (pemetrexed plus cisplatin or pemetrexed plus carboplatin ).Methods Seventeen cases diagnosed of malignant pleural mesothelioma at clinical stages of or over Butchart Ⅲ in our hospital during 2005 -2009 were treated with pemetrexed plus cisplatin (10 cases,Group A)or pemetrexed plus carboplatin (7 cases,Group B ).The difference in the survival rates between these two groups was compared.Results The early survival rate (0 -3 months)in pemetrexed plus cisplatin (group A)-treated group was more than that of pemetrexed plus carboplatin group (group B),but the difference was not statistically significant (x2 =0,1.52,1.52,respectively,P ＞ 0.05 ).For the medium-term survival rate (4 - 9 months),group A was better than group B,and the difference was statistically significant( x2 =5.21,4.41,4.41,4.50,4.50,4.55,respectively,P ＜ 0.05 ).The two groups produced comparable long-term survival rate s (10 -12months) ( x2 =1.31,0.09,0.09,respectively,P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion To increase the medium-term survival rate (4 -9 months)of patients with MPM,we prefer to using pemetrexed plus cisplatin regime.For the patients with more severe side effects which can be relieved by folic acid and VitB12,this regime is also recommended.Otherwise,for the patients with unrelievable side effects,especially for those with poor physical condition or a short survival expectation,pemetrexed plus carboplatin is suggested.

Objective:To investigate the distribution and influencing factors of the ocular biological parameters related to refractive development in school-age children.Methods:A cross-sectional study was performed.A total of 1 091 children aged 6-12 years old from July, 2017 to August, 2018, resident in downtown of Zhenjiang were enrolled in this study.The corneal radius of curvature (CR) and axial length/corneal radius of curvature ratio (AL/CR) were calculated after AL and corneal curvature (K) were measured by IOL Master.After pupillary dilatation with 0.5% tropicamide, cycloplegic retinoscopy was performed to identify refractive status.According to the spherical equivalent refraction (SER), all right eyes were classified into myopia, hyperopia and emmetropia.The comparison of the above parameters between different genders, as well as among different age groups and different refractive status groups were determined while the relative factors of the biological parameters and refractive status were analyzed by multivariate regression analysis.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Affiliated People's Hospital of Jiangsu University (No.K-20190153-W).Results:There were statistical differences in AL, SER and AL/CR value among different age groups ( F=32.34, P<0.01; F=33.69, P<0.01; F=2.19, P=0.04), which showed that refractive status shifted to myopia as well as AL and AL/CR value were increased with age.Compared with the girls, the boys had significantly longer AL, greater CR, greater AL/CR value, and smaller K ( t=7.58, P<0.01; t=-7.48, P<0.01; t=-8.08, P<0.01; t=-2.14, P=0.03). There were statistical differences in AL and AL/CR value among different refractive status groups ( F=192.68, P<0.01; F=143.15, P<0.01). The myopia group had longer AL and greater AL/CR value than the other two groups.Children whose parents were not myopic and children who had outdoor activities more than 14 hours per week and did homework less than 20 hours per week and children who slept more than 9 hours per day had shorter AL, smaller AL/CR value, and were more inclined to hyperopia or emmetropia.The results of multivariate regression analysis suggested that children aged from 6-12 years old with older age, female, increased height, parental myopia, and more time in homework or less time in outdoor activities per week may be more likely to have myopia, and longer AL or bigger AL/CR value was correlated with older age, male, greater body mass index (BMI), increased height, myopia conditions of parents, more time of doing homework, and less time in outdoor activities. Conclusions:The SER shifts to myopia with age in 6 to 12-year-old school-age children in the downtown of Zhenjiang.And there are significant differences in AL, CR and AL/CR value between boys and girls.Female, older age, increased height, more time in homework, less time in outdoor activities, and parental myopia are associated with more negative SER.

Antibody-drug conjugates(ADCs)are commonly heterogeneous and require extensive assessment of exposure-efficacy and exposure-safety relationships in preclinical and clinical studies.In this study,we report the generation of a monoclonal antibody against monomethyl auristatin E(MMAE)and the development,validation,and application of sensitive and high-throughput enzyme-linked immunosor-bent assays(ELISA)to measure the concentrations of MMAE-conjugated ADCs and total antibodies(tAb,antibodies in ADC plus unconjugated antibodies)in cynomolgus monkey sera.These assays were suc-cessfully applied to in vitro plasma stability and pharmacokinetic(PK)studies of SMADC001,an MMAE-conjugated ADC against trophoblast cell surface antigen 2(TROP-2).The plasma stability of SMADC001 was better than that of similar ADCs coupled with PEG4-Val-Cit,Lys(m-dPEG24)-Cit,and Val-Cit linkers.The developed ELISA methods for the calibration standards of ADC and tAb revealed a correlation be-tween serum concentrations and the OD450 values,with R2 at 1.000,and the dynamic range was 0.3-35.0 ng/mL and 0.2-22.0 ng/mL,respectively;the intra-and inter-assay accuracy bias％ranged from-12.2％to-5.2％,precision ranged from-12.4％to-1.4％,and the relative standard deviation(RSD)was less than 6.6％and 8.7％,respectively.The total error was less than 20.4％.The development and validation steps of these two assays met the acceptance criteria for all addressed validation parameters,which suggested that these can be applied to quantify MMAE-conjugated ADCs,as well as in PK studies.Furthermore,these assays can be easily adopted for development of other similar immunoassays.

Goose hemorrhagic polyomavirus (GHPV) is not a naturally occurring infection in geese in China; however, GHPV infection has been identified in Pekin ducks, a domestic duck species. Herein, we investigated the prevalence of GHPV in five domestic duck species (Liancheng white ducks, Putian black ducks, Shan Sheldrake, Shaoxing duck, and Jinyun Sheldrake) in China. We determined that the Jinyun Sheldrake duck species could be infected by GHPV with no clinical signs, whereas no infection was identified in the other four duck species. We sequenced the complete genome of the Jinyun Sheldrake origin GHPV. Genomic data comparison suggested that GHPVs share a conserved genomic structure, regardless of the host (duck or geese) or region (Asia or Europe). Jinyun Sheldrake origin GHPV genomic characterization and epidemiological studies will increase our understanding of potential heterologous reservoirs of GHPV.

OBJECTIVE：To reference for the rational use of sodium va lproate in clinic. METHODS ：By retrospective analysis，blood concentration monitoring results of sodium valproate and medical record data in 856 patients were collected from the Affiliated Tianyou Hospital of Wuhan University of Science and Technology during Jan. 2016-Dec. 2018. The dosage form of sodium valproate ，monitoring times of therapeutic drugs ，monitoring results of steady-state blood concentration of sodium valproate up to the standard ，dosage adjustment and the combination with carbamazepin ，fluconazol and carbapenem drugs were analyzed. Fisher exact test was used to analyze the factors influencing the steady-state blood concentration of sodium valproate up to the standard. RESULTS ：A total of 1 270 cases of sodium valproate were monitored in 856 patients，involving 407 males and 449 females，with age of （38.2±13.8）years and body mass of （52.3±10.0）kg. Among 1 270 cases of monitoring ，steady-state blood concentration of sodium valproate in 554 cases were in the range of 50-100 µg/mL，and 43.6％ of which reached the standard. The rate of reaching the standard in patients with multiple monitoring was higher than patients with single monitoring ；the dosage of patients with last monitoring reaching the standard was higher than that of patients with the first monitoring reaching the standard. The rate of reaching the standard in Sodium valproate sustained-release tablet group was higher than general Sodium valproate tablet group；the carbamazepin/fluconazol free group was higher than the carbamazepin combination group and fluconazol combination group；the carbapenem free group was higher than the carbapenem combination group （all P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：Clinical pharmacists should pay attention to the monitoring of sodium valproate treatment drugs ， strengthen the publicity and 3551851542@qq.com education of patients and their families ，and try to use Sodium valproate sustained-release tablets. When patients additionally receive carbapenem drugs like carbamazepin or fluconazol ， the standard level of sodium valproate will be reduced ，then the dosage of sodium valproate should be adjusted.
