Objective To explore the law and distribution characteristics of malaria prevalence in Pingguo County,Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region,so as to provide the evidence for formulating the targeted control strategy and measures after malar?ia elimination. Methods The data of malaria epidemic situation in Pingguo County from 1951 to 2014 were collected and ana?lyzed with the retrospective epidemiological method. Results From 1951 to 2014,there were 71 365 malaria cases reported in the county. The malaria incidence dropped from 429.43/10 000 in 1960 to 0 in 1993. Since 2002,there was no local endogenous infection case reported. In 1993,this county achieved the standard of malaria elimination basically,and in 2014,passed the ex?amination and evaluation of malaria elimination. Conclusions In Pingguo County,the comprehensive malarial control strategy is effective in different stages. In the future,the monitoring of mobile population and dealing with imported malaria cases timely is the key of consolidation of malaria control achievements.

Objective To establish uremic atherosclerosis models in apoE~(-/-) mice and evaluate its feasibility.Methods Totally 70 6-week-old male apoE~(-/-) mice were randomized into 2 groups,uremic group(n=35) and nonuremic control group(n=35).All mice were fed with a Western diet.Uremic group mice underwent partial kidney ablation with electrocoagulation of right renal cortex followed by left total nephrectomy in 2 weeks later and control animals underwent sham operation.Serum levels of urea,total cholesterol and triglycerides were assessed at 0,2,4,6 and 8 weeks after the first surgery.The cross-section surface area of the lesion and the lesion area fraction were assessed.Results At 6 weeks after nephrectomy,the level of serum urea in chronic renal failure(CRF) mice was 188.3% higher than that of control mice,and total cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations were increased by 40.8% and 29.8% than those of nonuremic controls,respectively(P

Objective To establish a dot blot hybridization technique for rapid detection of staphylococci and methicillin-resistant staphylococci.Methods Three pairs of primers were designed according to nuc gene of staphylococcus aureus,mecA gene of methicillin-resistance,tuf gene of staphylococci.Specific DNA probes were synthesized by polymerase chain reaction and labeled with biotin.The bacterial DNA inoculated on nitrocellulose filter was hybridized with these probes.The sensitivity and specificity were detected.Results The DNA probes with 270bp,310bp and 370bp were amplified by the three pairs of primers respectively.The probes were specific.Among 50 clinical isolates of staphylococcus aureus tuf and nuc gene were all positive and mecA gene in 22 isolates were positive.Positive rate of tuf,nuc and mecA gene in 30 staphylococcus epidermidis were 100%,0 and 30% (9/30) respectively.No hybridization in other non-staphylococci occurred.The established method could detect as low as 1ng of bacterial DNA.Conclusion The dot blot hybridization is of high value in rapid,effective identification of methicillin-resistant staphylococci.

Objective To systematically evaluate the consistency of sensitivity (SEN) and specificity (SPE) between positron-emission tomography (PET) /magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and PET/CT in the diagnosis of lymphoma.Methods The databases,including PubMed,Cochrane Library,Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM),CNKI,Wanfang and VIP,were retrieved till October 2016.The studies published the SEN and SPE of PET/MRI and PET/CT in the diagnosis of lymphoma were collected and selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria by two reviewers independently.Then,data extraction and analysis were performed by two independent reviewers.Resnlts A total of 6 studies,including 221 cases of patients with lymphoma,wereincluded.Among the 6 studies,4 of them provided patients-based and site-based data (including one provided data about staging ofdisease),and 2 studies only provided site-based data (including one provided data about staging of disease).The results indicated thatboth PET/MRI and PET/CT can accurately detect the lesions in patients with lymphoma,and the locations and numbers of lesions found bythe two methods were almost the same.Additionally,PET/MRI and PET/CT had high SEN and SPE for detection of lesions in patientswith lymphoma.and had high consistency in the diagnosis of lymphoma.Condusion The SEN and SPE of PET/MRI were similar to those of PET/CT in the diagnosis of lymphoma.PET/MRI may become a significant method for diagnosing lymphoma.

BACKGROUND: Nerve growth factor (NGF) and myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) can promote the repair of peripheral nerve. However, increasing the expression of NGF and MAG in the injured peripheral nerve by transgene technology has not been reported.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of NGF and MAG after adenovirus (Ad) mediated transfection in the injured sciatic nerve in rats.METHODS: Forty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal, model, Ad, NGF and NGF-MAG groups. Sciatic nerve injury models were established in the latter four groups by cutting and suturing the right sciatic nerve. Afterwards, the rats in each group were subject to the intramuscular injection of normal saline, normal saline, Ad (1×108 PFU), Ad-NGF (1×108 PFU), and Ad-NGF-MAG (1×108 PFU), respectively, once every 2 days, for consecutive three times.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The expression level of NGF in the rat sciatic nerve in the Ad and normal groups was significantly higher than that in the NGF and NGF-MAG groups (P < 0.05). Compared with the Ad, NGF and normal groups, the expression level of MAG in the NGF-MAG group was significantly increased (P < 0.05). To conclude, the Ad-mediated NGF and MAG after double gene transfection were expressed effectively in the injured sciatic nerve in rats.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of fluorouracil implants in Stage Ⅲgastric carcinoma patients after radical gastreetomy. Methods The general state of health and cumulative survival of 200 stage Ⅲ gastric carcinoma patients undergone radical gastrectomy from January, 1999 to, December 2002 in the People's Hospital of Zhongshan City were analyzed, in which only 120 patients administrated fluorouracil implants during radical gastreetomy. The therapeutic effects of fluorouracil implants in stage Ⅲ gastric carcinoma patients after radical gastrectomy were observed. Results The differences of weight (P = 0.041), HGB(P =0.024), Plt(P =0.017), CEA(P =0.001), CA19-9(P =0.003) were significant between two groups. The incidence rate of nausea/emesis in group T (28 %) was higher than that in group O(17 %, P = 0.006), and incidence rates of myelosuppression(P =0.81), diarrhea(P =0.72), hepatic function lesion(P =0.97) and renal function lesion(P =0.20) were no significant. The cumulative 5-year survival rate of group T(45 %) was higher than that in group O (15 %, P =0.002). Conclusion Fluorouracil implants can improve the therapeutic effects on gastric carcinoma patients undergone radical gastrectomy.

Objective To explore the significance of interleukin -35 (IL -35)in serum of patients with severe hepatitis.Methods Collected 39 cases of chronic hepatitis B(CHB)patients and severe hepatitis,and col-lected 19 cases of healthy control's(HC)peripheral blood at the same time.ELISA method was used to detect IL -35 levels.Results IL -35 in CHB and severe hepatitis group [(483.5 ±280.7)ng/mL and (277.9 ±248.7)ng/mL] were higher than HC group (50.5 ±47.8)ng/mL(t =2.089,3.303,P =0.044,0.002).In severe hepatitis group, the IL -35 levels in survivors group (305.3 ±301.2)ng/mL was higher than death group (78.7 ±33.2)ng/mL (P =0.012).IL -35 was positively correlated with ALT and AST,the correlation coefficient were 0.649 and 0.599. Conclusion IL -35 is involved in the pathogenesis of hepatitis B process,the low serum IL -35 levels in severe hepatitis patients may herald a bad prognosis.
