Objective To explore the etiology and epidemiological characteristics of fever and rash syndrome a mong children under the age of five years in Northwest China from 2009 to 2015.Methods Descriptive epidemiological analysis was conducted based on the monitoring data in sentinel hospitals,which was from the information management system of national infectious disease monitoring from 2009 to 2015 in Gansu,Qinghai,Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang.Results The results showed that the major pathogens of fever and rash syndrome among children under the age of five years were enterovirus,measles virus,varicella-zoster virus (VZV) and rubella virus.The major pathogens among children in the age group of 0-years and in the age group of 1-5 years were measles virus and enteroviruses,respectively.Among the positive cases of enterovirus,the positive detectable rates of human enterovirus 71 (EV71) and coxsackie A16 (CA16) were 47.18％ and 45.59％,respectively.The incidences of enterovirus and measles virus infection were mainly concentrated on May to July and March to May,respectively.Conclusions The major pathogens of fever and rash syndrome among children under the age of five years in Northwest china were enterovirus and measles virus with seasonal epidemic characteristics.Therefore,the prevention and control of measles and hand-foot-mouth disease should be strengthened.

BACKGROUND: In recent years, with the progress of shock therapy as well as the establishment and promoted application of arterial bypass grafting, thrombolytic therapy, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, extracorporeal circulation on cardiac surgery, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, limb replantation, and organ transplantation, blood reperfusion in multiple organs after ischemia has been achieved. However, the organs which undergo a period of ischemia appear to have the performance of damage aggravation.OBJECTIVE: To summarize the research progress of MG53 protein in protecting five organs from ischemia/reperfusion injury, thereby providing reference for further in-depth study.METHODS: A computer-based online search of PubMed, Duxiu Knowledge Search and CNKI databases was performed for relevant literatures puldished between 1986 and 2016. The key words were MG53, TRIM, Mitsugumin53, ischemic, reperfusion, preconditioning, postconditioning, RISK, membrane damage, Connexin43, KChIP2 in English and MG53, ischemia/reperfusion in Chinese. Finally 61 eligible articles were reviewed in accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: As a muscle-specific TRIM family protein, endogenous MG53 is involved in the repair of muscle cytomembrane damage, and the protective effects of ischemic preconditioning and postconditioning. Exogenous recombinant human MG 53 protein not only repairs membrane damage of various muscles and non-muscle cells, but also protects the myocardium, skeletal muscle, brain, lung and kidney from ischemia/reperfusion injury.

OBJECTIVETo explore the appropriate early warning method for influenza epidemic in Gansu province.

METHODSBy using simple control chart, moving percentile method, exponential smoothing method and cumulative sum control chart method, the annual incidence data of influenza-like illness in Gansu province during 2014-2015 were analyzed, and the sensitivities, specificities, positive predictive values, Jorden indexes and Kappa values of the 4 methods were evaluated and compared.

RESULTSThe 2014-2015 seasonal influenza epidemic occurred in the fiftieth week of 2014 in Gansu, and the epidemic peak lasted for 6 weeks. Cumulative sum control chart method had the best early warning effect with the sensitivity of 66.67% and specificity of 93.48%.

CONCLUSIONIt is feasible to use cumulative sum control chart method to give early warning of influenza epidemic in Gansu.

Objective To detect the spatial temporal distribution of mumps in Gansu by means of spatial statistics.Methods The county-based incidence of mumps from 2009 to 2013 was used to calculate the global Moran' s I and local G statistics, and analyze its spatial temporal distribution characteristics.Results The incidence of mumps in Gansu were spatial auto-correlated from 2009 to 2013 respectively (P＜0.001), and the hot spots were mainly distributed in Hexi area,while the cold spots were distributed in Tianshui, Longnan and Qingyang.Spatial temporal analysis showed that the high incidence of mumps was most likely to be detect in Hexi area (RR=3.05, LLR=4 670.995, P＜0.001), and the low incidence was most likely to be detect in Longdong area (RR=0.36,LLR=1 980.686,P＜0.001).Conclusion The spatial and spatial temporal clustering of mumps existed in Gansu from 2009 to 2013, the results can be used in the development of mumps prevention and control measure in Gansu.

Objective To explore the effects and mechanism of implantation of umbilical blood mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)on rats with cerebral infarction. Methods Umbilical blood MSCs were cultured in vivo,flow cytometry was ap-plied to test cytometric immunophenotype, and model of rat cerebral infarction was made by suture method; 120 rats were randomly assigned to MSCs implantation group and control group; rats' neurological function was evaluated;western-blot was applied to test the expression of GFAP protein. Fluorescence microscope was applied to observe changes of hippocampal formation in rats as well as the distribution of MSCs in rats' brain. Results According to the test of neurological function, the score of neurological function in the experiment group was reduced, and the score in the control group was improved. The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). Expression of GFAP in MSCs im-plantation group was increased with a peak in the 7th day,while no significant changes in the control group(P<0.05). According to the observation of immunofluorescence microscopy, the distribution of MSCs in rats' brain was good in MSCs implantation group, and the hippocampal formation showed clear layers in the experiment group. Hippocampal structures in the control group were chaotic, and synapses and organelles were dissolved and compromised. Conclu-sion MSCs are able to promote the repair of hippocampal structures after cerebral infarction in rats, strengthen neuro-plasticity and promote the recovery of neurological functions.

The Mediterranean diet refers to the dietary pattern derived from eating habits of the southern European countries along the Mediterranean coast. It is a healthy diet pattern with essential nutrients. It was reported that the incidence of osteoporosis in the Mediterranean countries is lower, so it is of particular interest to explore the effect and potential mechanism of the diet on bone health. Applying research results of the Mediterranean diet to the prevention of osteoporosis in other countries is a feasible way to reduce the incidence of osteoporosis in the future.

Osteoporosis and chronic psychological stress are two serious chronic degenerative diseases that cause disability and impact population health. Patients with osteoporosis often present with heavier psychological burden, lower quality of life, and frequent symptoms of depression and anxiety. There are potential common pathogenic factors, cellular mechanisms and signaling pathways between them. Considering that the number of patient with these diseases is huge and growing rapidly, it is particularly important to explore the pathogenic link between these two diseases as well as cross-effect therapeutics for osteoporosis and mental health disorders.
