Objective:
To compare the effectiveness of seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) model, additive Holt-Winters model, Holt-Winters' multiplicative model, GM (1, 1) model and linear combination prediction model for prediction of pulmonary tuberculosis incidence.
Methods:
Data pertaining to monthly incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region from 2004 to 2008 were captured from Public Health Sciences Data Center. The SARIMA model, additive Holt-Winters model, Holt-Winters' multiplicative model, GM (1, 1) model and linear combination prediction model were created based on the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis from January 2004 to June 2018, to predict the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis from July to December 2018. The predictive value of each model was evaluated using absolute percentage error (APE), mean APE (MAPE) and root mean square error (RMSE), and the best model was selected based on minimum APE, MAPE and RMSE.
Results:
The SARIMA model showed the minimum APE (10.94%), 11.01% and 7.96% MAPE and 564 and 419 RMSE at the model-fitting and prediction phases; followed by the linear combination prediction model, with 13.71% APE, 12.01% and 7.94% MAPE and 600 and 447 RMSE at the model-fitting and prediction phases, while the additive Holt-Winters model, Holt-Winters' multiplicative model and GM (1, 1) model showed a low predictive value.
Conclusion
The SARIMA and linear combination prediction models are superior to additive Holt-Winters model, Holt-Winters' multiplicative model and GM (1, 1) model for prediction of pulmonary tuberculosis incidence.

Traditional Chinese medicine placebo has been put more and more attention to. However, there is no ac-cepted quality evaluation method for TCM placebo. How to evaluate TCM placebo objectively and quantitatively is a common problem in the industry of Chinese medicine. New technologies such as the Intelligent Sensory Technique have been used to establish the placebo evaluation methods which are suitable for TCM characteristics. This article provided the basis for establishing scientific, rational and objective evaluation guiding principles for TCM.

Objective:To screen antigen of Helicobacter pylori outer membrane proteins by murine infection model.Methods:Parallel two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D) of outer membrane proteins extracted from Helicobacter pylori strain SS1 was performed.Western blot of a duplicate 2D gel hybridized with serum from H.pylori-infected murine was employed.Immunogenic H.pylori proteins identified in this way were digested in gel by trypsin and the mass of generated peptides were measured by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS).The data obtained from peptide mass finger-printing (PMF) were searched using the internet available database.Results:32 proteins were identified and they are in good agreement with typical protective antigens which reacted with serum from H.pylori-infected patients.Conclusion:The results suggest that murine model of H.pylori may be valid to screen antigens for human vaccination and the proteins identified in this paper are valuable for the selection of H.pylori protective antigens as well.

Abstract: Objective The method of "molecular docking - molecular dynamics - in vitro pharmacology" was used to screen and optimize small molecule polypeptide compounds that can block PD-1/PD-L1 binding and have high anti-tumor activity. Methods Using the 5-peptide compound database constructed by our team and the three-dimensional structure data of the PD-L1 protein downloaded from the protein database (PDB), the peptide compounds obtained by flexible molecular docking using Molecular Operating Environment software. The molecular dynamics calculation and analysis of the compounds with the highest GWVI/WSA (generalized Born volume integral/weighted surface area) free energy change value (ΔG) were carried out, including the root mean square deviation (RMSD) of the position change of the weight atom and the interaction energy (the sum of Lennard-Jones potential and Coulombic energy). The blocking effect of ligand compounds on PD-1/PD-L1 binding was analyzed by the homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) technique. The co-culture system of Jurkat T lymphocytes and melanoma B16-F10 cells was established to explore the effect of compound ligands on the killing effect of T cells on tumors and the effect on the secretion level of IL-2 in the co-culture supernatant. Results The selected polypeptide compounds were analyzed by molecular dynamics, and the binding of RGGHA to RGGHH and PD-L1 was stable. There are many kinds of interactions between RGGHA and PD-L1,which can compete with PD-1 ligands to bind Asp122, Try123 and Lys124 sites of the PD-L1 protein and block PD-1/PD-L1 signal transduction. HTRF experiments showed that the binding inhibition rate of RGGHA to PD-1 and PD-L1 was 58.38%, and that of RGGHH was 42.73%. In addition, we established a co-culture system of Jurkat T lymphocytes and melanoma B16-F10 cells to explore the immunostimulatory effect and mechanism of peptides. The results show that RGGHA and RGGHH can significantly increase the secretion level of IL-2, improve the killing ability of T cells against tumor cells and activate the tumor immune microenvironment. Conclusions The study found that the polypeptide compounds RGGHA and RGGHH can effectively block the PD-1/PD-L1 interaction and reactivate the anti-cancer immune response, which can be used as lead compounds for new drug development.
