Human avian-origin influenza A (H7N9)virus is a novel subtype of avian influenza A virus,which firstly emerged at the end of March 2013 in Shanghai and Anhui province.It rapidly spread in China within a short time,causing high morbidity and mortality,arousing fear and panic in public,and attracting extensive attention worldwide.The analysis of human H7N9 avian influenza virus gene shows a high affinity for α-2,6-linked sialic acid receptors expressed on human respiratory epithelial cells.At present,the sporadic cases of human H7N9 avian influenza virusare occasionally reported with an epidemic peaksat winter and spring.This article reviews clinical features,epidemiology and genetic characteristics of H7N9 avian influenza virus,proving scientific evidences foreffective prevention and control of H7N9 virus infection.

Objective To analyze the molecular characteristics of human pathogenic avian influenza A H7N9 virus.Methods The gene sequences of avian influenza A H7N9 virus (30 human-originated and 15 avian-originated) isolated in Zhejiang province from 2013 to 2015 were downloaded from Global Initiative on Sharing Avian Influenza Data ( GISAID), and then the evolution characteristics, the sites related to receptor binding, virulence and drug resistance of H7N9 virus were analyzed by MEGA 6.0 software. Results There were minor differences in HA and NA genes between human H7N9 virus strains and poultry reference strains in Zhejiang province with the homology of 98.0%-100.0% and 97.4%-100.0%, respectively.Viral amino acid variation showed that 30 representative strains had mutations at 226 (Q226L/I) and 186(G186V) sites in HA protein, and all strains isolated from 2015 had A134V mutation;one strain had R294K mutation in NA gene;19 strains had E627K mutation in PB2 and 2 strains had D701N mutation;mutation S31N was found in M2 gene in all isolates; and all HA cleavage sites were PEIPKGR↓GLF, indicating low pathogenic strain.Conclusions The homology of HA and NA genes is high between poultry reference strains and human H7N9 virus strains in Zhejiang province during 2013 and 2015.Strains have some significant mutations of amino acid in HA and NA protein.All isolates show ion channel inhibitors ( Amantadine) resistance, and some isolates show resistance mutations with neuraminidase inhibitors.

Objective To illustrate the chest radiography and MSCT findings of measles pneumonia in adults. Methods One hundred and sixty three measles patients underwent chest radiography, MSCT was performed in 3 of them. Measles pneumonia was confirmed in 10 patients (6.13%). Results Eight of 10 patients had abnormal appearances in initial chest radiography. The characteristic chest radiographic findings were ground-glass opacities (n=6) and bronchial wall thickening (n=2). MSCT showed bilateral multiple ground-glass opacities in 1 patient,unilateral patchy ground-glass opacities with lobular distribution in the right upper lung in 2 patients. Conclusions Familiarizing with radiographic and MSCT appearances of measles pneumonia in adults is very important for the differential diagnosis and appropriate management of measles pneumonia. Normal initial chest radiography cannot exclude the involvement of the lungs.

Objective To summarize clinical application, method and result of extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation ( ECMO) used during beating heart coronary artery bypass grafting ( CABG) in high risk patients. Methods Twenty one patients [ mean age ( 75. 7 ± 3. 6 ) years old ] who received beating-heart CABG surgery assisted with ECMO were included in the study. We observed the condition when ECMO weaned off, the duration on mechanical rentilato time of ICU stay and the occurance of related complications. Results Among the 21 patients, ECMO was weaned off uneventfully after surgery in 8 patients. Immediate weaning was failed in another 8 patients and required gradual weaning in 2. 0-4. 5 hrs. Five patients could not wean off the ECMO in operation room needing continuous ECMO support in CCU. ECMO was weaned off in CCU gradually with IABP support [mean IABP support time: (115. 0 ± 25. 9) hrs]. Among the 5 patients admitted into CCU, 1 patient had oozing from insertion site at femoral artery/rein region and was stopped with compressive bandage. Lower limb ischemia happened in another 1 patient and was recovered after set up of by-pass circulation. All 21 patients recovered well and smoothly. Mean in-hospital stay was (17. 4 ± 2. 8) d. Conclusions ECMO is a safe and effective circulatory support during beating heart coronary artery bypass surgery for high-risk patients with severe coronary artery disease in reducing the mortality and complications.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of umbilical blood stem cell transplantation (UCBSCT) on the treatment of hepatitis B liver cirrhosis. Methods Forty-eight patients with hepatitis B liver cirrhosis were enrolled and divided into the treatment group and the control group. There were 25 patients in the treatment group , who received UCBSCT treatment based on conventional liver protection treatment and 23 patients in the control group , who received conventional liver protection treatment. The changes of liver function , coagulation function, clinical symptoms, signs and side effects were studied before the treatment and at 2, 4, 12 and 24 weeks post-treatment. Results The levels of albumin, cholinesterase, and prothrombin activity in the treatment group were higher than those before treatment and were higher than those in the control group. The parameters in the control group were not significantly changed before and after the treatment (P > 0.05). The levels of alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,total bilirubin in both two groups were not significantly changed before and after the treatment (P > 0.05). After 4-week treatment,the differences on improvement of appetite , lacking in strength , abdominal distension , ascites were statistically significant in the treatment group compared with the control group (P < 0.05). No adverse reactions were observed in all groups. Conclusion UCBSCT on the treatment of hepatitis B liver cirrhosis is safe and reliable.

Iris image quality evaluation plays a very important part in iris computer recognition. An iris image quality evaluation method was introduced into this study to distinguish good image from bad image caused by pupil distortion, blurred boundary, two circles appearing not concentric, and severe occlusion by eyelids and eyelashes. The tests based on this method gave good results.

23 subjects' 8-lead (Fp1, Fp2, Cp3, Cp4, T7, T8, P7, P8) electroencephalogram (EEG) was recorded when they were doing mental arithmetic at four different levels. We calculated the information transmission time series in human cerebral cortex basing on EEG, and the Lempel-Ziv complexity and C1C2 complexity of these time series. When 20 subjects were doing the most difficult mental arithmetic, the information transmission series between lead at left-brain (Cp3, T7, P7) and other leads was of more complexity than others; a light "cross" could be seen after the information transmission matrix was converted to image; when complexity was calculated, the difference was more significant by use of C1 complexity than by other complexity measures.
