BACKGROUND: Stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF1), a potential inhibitor of infection by lymphophilic HIV-1 strains, can help to block the pathway of HIV-1 invasion into the human body.OBJECTIVE: Genotype and polymorphism of SDF1-3 'A allele associated with HIV-1 infection were investigated in She Ethnic Group in the south of China so as explore the possible causes of uninfection by HIV-1 strains among this population.DESIGN: Single sample study.SETTING: Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Gannan Medical College.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 186 She Ethnic subjects without HIV-1 infection collected randomly from those whose three generations belonged to She Ethnic Group, and inhabited in Qianshan County of Jiangxi Province,Ningde area of Fujian Province and Jingning She County of Zhejiang Province, from January to December 1995.METHODS: The whole blood samples from 186 She Ethnic subjects were collected randomly, and then their genomic DNA samples were extracted respectively. Allelic polymorphism was examined by the polymerase chain reaction and restriction-fragment-length polymorphisms (PCR-RFLP).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The distribution of SDF1-3'A allele in She Ethnic Group in the south of China.RESULTS: The data of 186 She Ethnic subjects entered the result analysis without any loss in the midway. The frequency of SDF1-3 'A allele in She Ethnic Group samples was 19.6%, and the allelic distribution of the gene was in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. No difference was found between male and female individuals.CONCLUSION: The frequency of SDF1-3 'A allele of She Ethnic Group in the south of China was similar to that of Dai Nationality in Yunnan.Based on its slow-down effect on clinical course of AIDS, the mutation of SDF1-3'A is significant in the prevention and treatment of AIDS in She Ethnic Group in the south of China.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the effectiveness of vocal cord cyst excision with electronic laryngoscope (EL) and self-retaining laryngoscope (SRM). METHOD: Nightly-two patients, diagnosed as vocal cord cyst with strobolaryngoscope or electronic laryngoscope, were randomly divided into two groups. One group was 48 cases treated with electronic laryngoscope and another group was 44 cases treated with self-retaining laryngoscope. Electronic laryngoscopy examination and voice function assessments were performed to all patients, preoperatively and postoperatively at one week, three months and six months. RESULT: One failed cases under SRM, difficult exposure of glottic portion, were treated under EL. The recurrence rate of the two groups was of no statistical significance in three months after operation. Voice function assessment of the two groups was of no statistical significance at one week, three months and six months after operation. CONCLUSION The operation under electronic laryngoscope is a minimal invasive procedure to the laryngeal mucosa. Electronic laryngoscope had advantages such as clear view, accurate operation. Furthermore, it can be used for those that could not be treated under self-retaining laryngoscope.

As a promising modality for cancer therapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT) still acquired limited success in clinical nowadays due to the extremely serious hypoxia and immunosuppression tumor microenvironment. To ameliorate such a situation, we rationally designed and prepared cascade two-stage re-oxygenation and immune re-sensitization BSA-MHI148@SRF nanoparticles via hydrophilic and hydrophobic self-assembly strategy by using near-infrared photodynamic dye MHI148 chemically modified bovine serum albumin (BSA-MHI148) and multi-kinase inhibitor Sorafenib (SRF) as a novel tumor oxygen and immune microenvironment regulation drug. Benefiting from the accumulation of SRF in tumors, BSA-MHI148@SRF nanoparticles dramatically enhanced the PDT efficacy by promoting cascade two-stage tumor re-oxygenation mechanisms: (i) SRF decreased tumor oxygen consumption via inhibiting mitochondria respiratory. (ii) SRF increased the oxygen supply via inducing tumor vessel normalization. Meanwhile, the immunosuppression micro-environment was also obviously reversed by two-stage immune re-sensitization as follows: (i) Enhanced immunogenic cell death (ICD) production amplified by BSA-MHI148@SRF induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation enhanced T cell infiltration and improve its tumor cell killing ability. (ii) BSA-MHI148@SRF amplified tumor vessel normalization by VEGF inhibition also obviously reversed the tumor immune-suppression microenvironment. Finally, the growth of solid tumors was significantly depressed by such well-designed BSA-MHI148@SRF nanoparticles, which could be potential for clinical cancer therapy.

The guidelines for curriculum ideological and political of nursing ethics explored the ideological and political elements of Chinese nursing， and proposed the curriculum’s ideological and political goals. The development framework and basic ideas of guidelines were formed from the aspects of the integration path of curriculum ideological and political， and professional teaching， searching for the entry point of curriculum ideological and political， reforming the teaching methodology， enriching the form of teaching， and constructing the case base of curriculum ideological and political. It promoted the deep integration of nursing professional knowledge transmission and ideological value guidance， created a distinctive education system of curriculum ideological and political for nursing ethics， and provided a reference for the curriculum ideological and political construction of national nursing ethics.
