Abstract: Objective To analyze the changes of coagulation indicators in patients with hepatitis B complicated with Clonorchis sinensis (C. Sinensis), and provide reference value for diagnosis, drug using and prognosis monitoring. Methods The patient samples were collected from the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from June 2018 to February 2022 and divided into six groups. They were 40 healthy patients, 47 patients with simple chronic hepatitis B, 47 patients with post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis, 40 patients with C. Sinensis mono-infection, 30 patients with chronic hepatitis B patients co-infected with C. Sinensis and 27 patients with post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis patients coinfected with C. Sinensis. Four coagulation indexes, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT) and fibrinogen (FIB), were detected and compared among the groups. Results Compared with the healthy group, C. Sinensis mono-infection group had higher level of FIB and delayed PT, APTT; chronic hepatitis B group and chronic hepatitis B patients co-infected with C. Sinensis group had delayed PT, APTT, TT and significant lower FIB, these differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Compared with simple chronic hepatitis B group, post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis B patients co-infected with C. Sinensis had significant delayed PT, APTT, TT and lower FIB (all P<0.05). Compared with the post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis B patients co-infected with C. Sinensis, post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis patients coinfected with C. Sinensis group had significant delayed PT, APTT, TT and lower FIB (all P<0.05). Conclusions The coinfection of C. Sinensis will further aggravate the coagulation dysfunction of HBV patients, leading to poor treatment and prognosis. HBV patients will have worse coagulation function in the process to post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis; Therefore, it is important to pay attention to C. Sinensis co-infection when treating HBV patients, so that further guidance on clinical use and monitoring of prognosis can be provided.

12-18 years old).In each age group,children were classified according to their genders.Diffusion tensor imaging(DTI)was performed in all the children's heads.Then the angles formed by splenium corporis callosi and occipital forceps were measured in fractional anisotropy maps.All the data were analyzed statistically.Results 1.The females in infant group had the larger angles formed by splenium corporis callosi and occipital forceps.With the age increasing,the average values of angles tended to decrease gradually.But in some age groups,the average values in some cases tended to increase before it decreased.2.A statistically significant sex difference was found in infant group.In young child group,pre-school age group and adolescence group,such difference was found in angles formed by occipital forceps.Only in young child group,difference in the maximum angles of splenium corporis callosi was found.3.There was a significant difference between age groups in the angles formed by sides of occipital forceps and the minimum angles of splenium corporis callosi through one-way analysis of variance.4.The angles of occipital forceps and the minimum angles of splenium corporis callosi both had a negative correlation with ages.They both had a linear regression to ages.But,there was no correlation between the maximum angles of splenium corporis callosi and ages.Conclusions Sex differences might exist in the angles formed by both sides of occipital forceps and splenium corporis callosi.The angles formed by sides of occipital forceps and parts of angles of splenium corporis callosi might decrease when the age increases.Diffusion-weighted technology can be used to study the age and sex difference in angles formed by splenium corporis callosi and occipital forceps in children.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of substrate stiffness on proliferation, migration of fibroblast and integrin β(1) expression in fibroblast.
METHODSFibroblasts were inoculated on silicon substrate with stiffness of (16.2 ± 0.5), (19.8 ± 1.1), and (200.1 ± 2.6) kPa. After being cultured for 5 days or 6 days, cells were counted and cell proliferative activities (recorded as absorbance value) were assessed with methyl thiazolyl blue (MTT). After being cultured for 3 days, cell cycle was detected and proliferation index (PI) was calculated. The cell scratch test was used for determination of cell migration rate on post scratch day (PSD) 0 (the day of scratch), 1, 2, and 3. After being cultured for 2 days, the expression of integrin β(1) was determined by flow cytometry with fluorescence. Data were processed with one-way analysis of variance.
RESULTS(1) The proliferative speed and proliferative activity of fibroblasts were all increased along with the increase in substrate stiffness. PI of fibroblasts inoculated on silicon substrate with stiffness of (16.2 ± 0.5), (19.8 ± 1.1), and (200.1 ± 2.6) kPa was respectively 24.8%, 27.4%, 32.4%. On PSD 2, migration rate of fibroblasts inoculated on silicon substrate with stiffness of (19.8 ± 1.1) and (200.1 ± 2.6) kPa was respectively (91.4 ± 5.1)%, (100.0 ± 1.3)%, which were higher than that of fibroblasts inoculated on silicon substrate with stiffness of (16.2 ± 0.5) kPa [(55.8 ± 6.8)%, with F value respectively 3.5, 4.0, P values all below 0.01]. (3) The expression rate of integrin β(1) in fibroblasts inoculated on silicon substrate with stiffness of (16.2 ± 0.5) kPa was the lowest (43.22%), and that in fibroblast inoculated on silicon substrate with stiffness of (200.1 ± 2.6) kPa was the highest (81.26%).
CONCLUSIONSSubstrate stiffness may have a great effect on proliferation and migration of fibroblast during the process of wound healing and scar formation, which can be related to regulation of integrin β(1) expression.

Objective To investigate the application potentiality of dynamic three-dimensional contrast-enhanced ultrasound (3D-CEUS) in showing vascular patterns of hepatic tumors.Methods Total of 65 hepatic tumors were examined with two-dimensional contrast-enhanced ultrasound (2D-CEUS) and dynamic 3D-CEUS and make statistical comparison between two imaging modes in aspects of enhancement patterns,spatial relationships of tumors and vascularity of different hepatic tumors.Results Dynamic 3D-CEUS showed the same enhancement patterns with 2D-CEUS.However,Dynamic 3D-CEUS was superior to 2D-CEUS in the display of spatial relationships of hepatic tumors and vascularity(P <0.05).The vascularity between benign and malignant hepatic tumors was statistically significant (P < 0.05).Conclusions Dynamic 3D-CEUS is a useful technique in the differential diagnosis of hepatic tumors as well as 2D-CEUS,and dynamic 3D-CEUS displays the spatial relationship of hepatic tumors and vascularity more visually and comprehensively,which provides additional beneficial information for the diagnosis and therapy of hepatic tumors.
