Objective To analyze human plague from 2001 to 2011 in Qinghai Province and to provide a scientific basis for formulating prevention and control measures.Methods Using the descriptive epidemiological methods,epidemiological field survey data and medical records of each case of human plague were collected from 2001 to 2011 in Qinghai Province.Human plague was judged in accordance with the Plague Diagnostic Criteria (WS 279-2008).Results From 2001 to 2011,human plague was reported 14 times,with incidence of 38 cases,17 dead and death rate was 44.74％ in Qinghai Province.Epidemic areas mainly distributed in the 12 townships of 9 counties.Prevalent season was from May to October,September and October accounted for 57.89％ (22/38).There were cases of Tibetan herders and Han farmers,accounting for 76.32％ (29/38) and 23.68％ (9/38),respectively;onset age from 5 to 67 years,mainly around the age of 20-45 [68.42％ (26/38)].The most prevalent clinical types were pneumonic and septicemic plague and initial case was caused by actively contact with infected plague animals.Conclusions Qinghai human plague is mainly caused by approaching the plague infected animals,human plague in Qinghai Province is on the rise,the risk of long-distance transmission of the plague is significantly increased.

Objective To observe the changes and clinical significances of ischemia modified albumin (IMA),cardiac triponin T (cTnT) and creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) in transient myocardial ischemia induced by radio frequency ablation ( RFA ) in patients with arrhythmia.Methods One hundred and twelve patients with arrhythmia undergoing RFA and 91 patients undergoing CAG were evaluated with blood levels of IMA,cTnT and CK-MB before and 3 and 6 hours after operation.Results Serum levels of IMA at 3 h [ (80.62 ± 7.53 )U/ml ] and 6 h [ (76.37 ± 9.21 ) U/ml ] after operation rose significantly (P ＜ 0.05 ) in the 112 cases of RFA compared with the preoperative [ ( 45.42 ± 7.00 ) U/ml ].While the levels of IMA were not significantly different at 3 and 6 hours after CAG in the 91 patients compared with before sugery ( P ＞ 0.05).The levels of cTnT and CK-MB remained unchanged between the two groups after the procedures ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion The levels of IMA were quickly increased after myocardial ischemia induced by RFA and this change occurred earlier than that of cTnT.IMA is an early diagnostic biochemical marker of myocardial ischemia.

BACKGROUND: The glycoprotein which ends of a-galactosyi residues (a-Gal) is the major heterogenic antigen for hyperacute rejection. OBJECTIVE: To observe the distribution characteristic of the small tissue engineered vessel scaffold, and a-Gal in endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells of Wistar rats and Japanese white rabbits, in addition, to discuss the feasibility of applying acellular tissue vessel scaffold to heterogeneous blood vessel transplantation. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The contrast observation was conducted at the Department of Human Anatomy of China Medical University between March 2003 and December 2004. MATERIALS: Totally 30 caudal arteries of Wistar rats were collected. Fifteen of which were prepared for small vessel scaffold (small vessel scaffold group), the remained 15 served as caudal artery group. Additionally, 15 central arteries were obtained from each ear of Japanese white rabbits (central artery group). METHODS: Totally 16 mg/L Bandeiraea Simplicifolia I Isolectin B4 (BSI-B4) was added for DAB staining with Affinity histochemistry method. Then MetaMorth/C5050/BX41 microscopic image analysis system was used to detect the positive reaction product of a-Gal. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Color changes of vascular wall were observed under light microscope; the optical density of the positive reaction product of a-Gal was measured. RESULTS: The expression of a-Gal was mainly located in the cell membrane, as well as cell nucleus of endothelial cells in the central artery group. The expression of a-Gal of endothelial cell was strong positive in the caudal artery group, which was weak or negative expressed in the small vessel scaffold group. The optical density of a-Gal expression was lowest in the tunica intima of small vessel scaffold group, which was less in the central artery group than the caudal artery group (P < 0.001). The a-Gal expression in the tunica media of small vessel scaffold group was less than the central artery and the caudal artery groups (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: In the caudal artery of Wistar rat, the expression of a-Gal is higher than that in the central artery of Japanese white rabbit. Therefore, the heterogeneous tissue engineered vessel material from acellular caudal artery of Wistar rats can be used in blood vessel transplantation.

The major challenge in the development of recombinant biologics lies in generating and isolating rare high-producing stable single clone in a short period of time. The selection marker is an essential component of the plasmid vector, it plays an important part in the generation and screening of producing cell lines. Engineering the selection marker to enhance the stringency of selection for high producing cells is one of the most effective approaches to improve the cell line development process. Here, using Chinese hamaster overy (CHO) cells as an example, we introduce the application of selection marker for generation of recombinant biologics producing mammalian cell lines, methods of engineering the selection markers to enhance the selection stringency, and propose considerations on cell substrate stability and selection marker safety, in order to provide references for high-efficiency development of recombinant biologics.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics of urgent tracheotomy patients. METHOD: Forty-five cases of urgent tracheotomy patients were reviewed retrospectively. The clinical characteristics, pre-operative and post-operative clinical manifestation and complication were studied. Most patients for urgent tracheotomy were head and neck tumor, inflammation and head and neck injury. RESULT: Two patients died in operating and two patients died in post-operation. Finding respiratory depression in six patients of long obstruction in post-operation. Eleven patients had complication in operating or post-operation. Hemorrhage and pneumoderma and local trauma were the main complications. CONCLUSION Emergent tracheotomy and elective tracheotomy were different-in the short operation time and body position. Complication incidence rate were higher than normal tracheotomy. Patients of long obstruction after post-operation shouldn't breathe in pure dephlogisticated air to avoidance respiratory depression.
