Objective To understand the distribution and characteristics of historical Oncomelania hupensis snail environ-ments and wetland environments in Wuxi City since 1952 so as to provide the evidence for formulating the monitoring strategy after the schistosomiasis transmission was interrupted. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted to collect the informa-tion of historical O. hupensis snail environments and wetland environments. Google Earth was used to present and analyze the distribution and characteristics of them. Results There were 2 124 historical O. hupensis snail environments in Wuxi City and the accumulative area was 2 995.7 hm2. In 2013 there were 61 surveillance sites of wetland with the area of 32.8 hm2 totally 1 695 snails were caught and no O. hupensis snails were found. Conclusion The historical O. hupensis snail environments were distributed widely and covered a large area in Wuxi City. The surveillance should be focused on the key environments and wetland.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of Toxoplasma gondii infection among key populations in Wuxi City,Jiangsu Province,so as to provide evidences for developing preventive and control interventions for T. gondii in-fection. Methods A questionnaire was designed to conduct face-to-face interviews to HIV/AIDS carriers/patients,tumor pa-tients,pregnant women and pet breeders. The blood samples were collected to test anti-Toxoplasma IgM and IgG antibodies by using ELISA method. Results Totally 404 participants were investigated,and 38 were positive in testing T. gondii antibodies (9.4%),and among these,37(97.4%)were IgG positive and 1(2.6%)was IgM positive. The multivariate logistic regression indicated that age,regularly contacting cats/dogs and being HIV positive were associated with the infection of T. gondii(OR=2.1,2.6 and 2.3,all P < 0.05). Breeding pets,being HIV positive and being tumor patients were more likely to infect T. gondii than being pregnant(OR = 1.5,8.1 and 2.8,all P < 0.05). Conclusion The high infection rate of T. gondii is observed among key populations in Wuxi City,so that the effective measurements should be taken to enhance the intervention among key popula-tions including immunocompromised people,pet breeders or people having bad dietary habits of eating raw food.

Objective To explore the protective role of lipoxin A4 (LXA4) during early process of atherosclerosis formation in rats with juvenile metabolic syndrome (MS).Methods Rat models of juvenile MS were established with 3-week Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats fed on high-carbonhydrates and high-fat diet for 6 weeks.The other qualified ones were randomly grouped into model group,LXA4 low-dose group,LXA4 middle-dose group,and LXA4high dose group,and a control group fed with normal forage.The low,middle,high-dose groups were injected different doses of LXA4 daily,while the model group and control group were injected with the same dose of isotonic NaCl solution for 2 consecutive weeks.After 2-week medication,the visceral adipose tissue were isolated by laparotomy and heart blood collected by thoracotomy under anesthesia,followed the fixation of thoracic and abdominal aortas in the immobilized rats.The mRNA expression level of inflammation cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),C-reactive protein (CRP) in the adipose tissue were determined by semi-quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR),respectively.Secretions of IL-6,and TNF-α in serum were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Immunocytochemistry was used to label endomembrane and middle-membrane of thoracic aorta,and endothelial cell layer in each group and the ratios of thickness of endomembrane and middle-membrane were compared.Results Compared with the control group,weight,body length and abdominal circumference of juvenile MS rats increased significantly (all P ＜ 0.05),and levels of fasting plasma glucose (FPG),triglyceride (TG),high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and insulin in models increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05).RT-PCR showed that the mRNA expressions of inflammatory cytokines IL-6,TNF-α and CRP in adipose tissue in model rats were upexpressed (all P ＜ 0.05).Compared with model rats,mRNA of IL-6,TNF-oα,and CRP in mid,high-dose rats were downexpressed (all P ＜ 0.05),mRNA of TNF-α in low-dose rat downexpressed (all P ＜ 0.05),and there were no significant differences between mRNA expressions of IL-6,CRP in low-dose and model rats according to statistics (all P ＞0.05).Compared with control group,inflammatory cytokines IL-6,TNF-α secreted in serum of model rats were increased significantly (all P ＜ 0.05),and inflammatory cytokines secreted in serum of intervention rats were decreased significantly compared with model rats (P ＜ 0.05).Pathological changes were as follows:HE staining:compared to model group,aortic tunica intima of model rats were remarkably thickened and endothelial cell layer was fragmented and incomplete,which was attenuated in each intervention group.The ratios of endomembrane and middle-membrane in rats:at the end of consecutive medication for 2 weeks,the ratios of endomembrane and middle-membrane in model rats were significantly greater than those of control group (P ＜ O.05),and the ratios of endomembrane and middle-membrane in high-dose intervention rats were significantly smaller than those of the model group (P ＜ 0.05),but still greater than control group,while there were no statistical differences between the ratios in low,middle-dose intervention rats and model rats (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The increasing inflammatory cytokines are involved in early process of atherosclerosis formation in rats with juvenile MS.LXA4 by reducing the expression of inflammatory factor level in adipose tissue,thereby reducing the inflammatory cytokines in serum,alleviate the damage of arterial wall.

Objective To investigate the cause,prevention methods and curative effect on two different drainage methods of subcutaneous effusion after breast cancer surgery.Methods The clinical data of 68 cases subcutaneous effusion among 2 100 cases underwent breast cancer modified radical surgery in our hospitial were analyzed retrospectively from January 2010 to December 2016.The vacuum sealing drainage was performed in 1 032 cases and wound high negative pressure drainage system was performed in 1068 casess.Both the elastic bandage compresstion dressing didn't used.Results In 2 100 cases,68 cases of subcutaneous effusion occured (3.2％),including longitudinal incision 48 cases and transverse incision 20 cases.Among 1 068 cases of high negative pressure drainagesystem,subcutaneous effusion occured in 36 cases including 28 cases of incisional infection and 8 cases of skin flap necrosis.The extuhation time was 8-36 days,average 12 days.Among 1 032 cases of vacuum sealing drainage,subcutaneous effusion occured in 32 cases including 22 cases of incisional infection,10 cases of skin flap necrosis.The extubation time was 6-12 days,average 8 days.All cases were followed up for 3 months,no subcutaneous effusion and axillary effusion occurred.Conclusions Adequate drainage is the key to prevent subcutaneous effusion.Both vacuum sealing drainage and wound high negative pressure drainage can effectively reduce the occurrence of subcutaneous effusion,however,vacuum sealing drainage is more suitable for wounds with more exudation,larger lacuna and deeper incisions,especially the infected wound and abscess.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of AS2 O3 inducing the apoptosis of myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS) cell line SKM-1 .Methods SKM-1 cells were incubated with AS2 O3 ,and then the cellular morphology was observed ,flow cytometry was used to determine the apoptosis ,RT-PCR was used to detect the expressions of Bcl-2 ,Bax and caspase-3 mRNA .Results 0 .25、0 .50 μmol/L AS2 O3 could not markedly induce the apoptosis of SKM-1 cells (P>0 .05) .But 2 .00、8 .00、32 .00 μmol/L of AS2 O3 could obviously promote the apoptosis of SKM-1 cells .With the increase of the acting time and concentration of AS2 O3 ,the apoptosis rate increased ,too(P<0 .01) ,the expressions of anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-2 mRNA decreased (P<0 .01) ,the expressions of promoting apoptosis gene Bax and caspase-3 mRNA increased (P<0 .01 ,P<0 .05) .Conclusion 2 .00、8 .00、32 .00 μmol/L of AS2O3 may promote the apoptosis of SKM-1 cells through down-regulating the expression of Bcl-2 gene and up-regulating the ex-pressions of Bax and caspase-3 genes .
