Objective To compare the antibody response induced by primary immunization with 5 μ g and 10 μ g hepatitis B vaccine made by recombinant DNA techniques among the newborns.Methods Healthy infants who had completed primary immunization with 5 μg hepatitis B vaccine made by recombinant dexyribonucleic acid techniques in Saccharomyces (Hep-SC) or 10 μg hepatitis B vaccine made by recombinant dexyribonucleic acid techniques in Hansenula polymorpha (HepB-HP) were included in the study.Kids under study were 7-12 months of age and had been on 0-1-6 schedule.Standardized questionnaire was used and blood samples were collected.The titer of antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) was detected by Chemiluminescence Microparticle Imunoassay (CMIA).If anti-HBs happened to be under 10 mIU/ml,HBV DNA was further detected by nested-PCR to distinguish occult hepatitis B virus infection.Sero-conversion rate and titer of anti-HBs were compared between the two kinds of hepatitis B vaccines.Multivariate analysis was used to find the relationship between the kind of hepatitis B vaccine as well as the antibody response after debugging the other influencing factors including month-age,gender,birth-weight,premature birth and mother' s HBsAg status.Results 8947 infants vaccinated with 5 μg HepB-SC and 4576 infants vaccinated with 10 μg HepB-HP were investigated.In the 5 μg group,the rates of non-,low-,normal- and high-response were 1.88％,15.18％,61.42％ and 21.52％ respectively.In the 10 μg group,the corresponding rates were 0.15％,2.16％,29.42％ and 68.26％ respectively.The non-,low-,normal-response rates were all higher in 5 μg group than in 10 μg group (P＜0.01),while the high-response rate was much higher in 10 μg group than in 5 μ g group (P＜0.01).The geometric mean concentration (GMC) of anti-HBs were 354.81 mIU/ml (95％ CI:338.84-363.08 mIU/ml) and 1778.28 mIU/ml (95％CI:1698.24-1819.70 mIU/ml) in the 5 μg group and 10 μg group respectively.The GMC was statistically higher in the 10 μg group than in the 5 μg group (P＜0.001).The seroconversion rate and GMC were significantly different between the two groups even after debugging the other influencing factors.Conclusion Better anti-HBs response could be achieved by primary immunization with 10 μg HepB-HP than with 5 μg HepB-SC among newborns.

Objective:To study the effect of Wenjing Huayu Zhitong therapy （Xiangyan Zhitong prescription， XZP） on the mitogen activated protein kinase （MAPK）/extracelluar regulated protein kinase （ERK） signaling pathway of primary dysmenorrhea （PD） rats， and explore the pathogenesis of PD and the mechanism of action of Wenjing Huayu Zhitong therapy. Method:Forty-eight female SPF-grade Wistar rats were randomly divided into blank group，model group， western medicine group， low-dose XZP group， medium-dose XZP group， and high-dose XZP group， with 8 rats in each group. In addition to the blank group， dysmenorrhea rat model with cold coagulation and blood stasis syndrome was established by cold stimulation combined with estradiol benzoate and oxytocin. The rats in the blank group，model group，western medicine group， low-dose XZP group， medium-dose XZP group， and high-dose XZP group were given distilled water， distilled water，0.06 g·kg^-1 ibuprofen， 6.55 g·kg^-1 XZP， 13.09 g·kg^-1 XZP， and 26.18 g·kg^-1 XZP， respectively， by gavage for 6 days. The writhing latency and writhing frequency of rats were recorded within 30 min after oxytocin injection.Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of B-Raf， mitogen activates extracellular regulated kinases1/2 （MEK1/2）， extracellular regulated kinases1/2 （ERK1/2）， p-MEK1/2， p-ERK1/2， c-Jun， and cyclooxygenase-2 （COX-2） in rat uterus. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was employed to detect the mRNA expression of B-Raf， MEK1， MEK2， ERK1， ERK2， c-Jun， and cyclooxygenase-2 （COX-2） in rat uterus. Result:Compared with the model group，the treatment groups showed insignificantly prolonged writhing latency and significantly reduced writhing frequency （P<0.01）. On the 6^th day of modeling， there was no significant difference in the quantitative scores of symptoms and signs among the treatment groups. On the 12^th day of modeling， the scores changed little in the western medicine group and the low-dose XZP group and decreased significantly in the medium- and high-dose XZP groups （P<0.01） compared with those in the model group. Compared with those in the blank group， the protein and mRNA levels of p-MEK1/2， p-ERK， B-Raf， c-Jun， and COX-2 in the model group were significantly up-regulated （P<0.01）. Compared with those in the model group， the protein and mRNA levels of p-MEK1/2， p-ERK1/2， B-Raf， c-Jun， and COX-2 in the western medicine group， medium-dose XZP group， and high-dose XZP group were significantly down-regulated （P<0.05，P<0.01）. Conclusion:The mechanism of Wenjing Huayu Zhitong therapy in treating PD with cold coagulation and blood stasis syndrome may be related to the down-regulation of MAPK/ERK signaling pathway.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of Wenjing Huayu Zhitong therapy in treating primary dysmenorrhea (PD) with cold coagulation and blood stasis, and to explore its immune mechanisms on PD. Method:The 108 PD patients with cold coagulation and blood stasis syndrome were collected and randomly divided into traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) group, ibuprofen group and placebo group according to the random number table method, with 36 cases in each group. All patients received corresponding medicines three days before menstruation. The patients in TCM group were treated with TCM and ibuprofen sustained release capsule simulator. The patients in ibuprofen group were treated with ibuprofen sustained-release capsule and TCM simulator. The patients in placebo group were treated with TCM simulator and ibuprofen sustained-release capsule simulator. Treatment lasted for 6 consecutive days for three menstrual cycles, and follow-up was conducted for three menstrual cycles after drug withdrawal. The visual analogue score (VAS), total time of abdominal pain and TCM symptom scores in each menstrual cycle were recorded. The levels of CD3⁺, CD4⁺, CD8⁺ and the ratio of CD4⁺/CD8⁺ in peripheral blood before and after treatment were detected by flow cytometry. Result:After treatment for three menstrual cycles, both the TCM group and ibuprofen group were better than placebo group in reducing VAS score and reducing total abdominal pain time (P<0.01). The long-term follow-up effect after drug withdrawal in TCM group was significantly better than that in ibuprofen group (P<0.01). The total effective rate was 91.43% (32/35) in TCM group, 66.67% (10/33) in ibuprofen groups, and 30.30% (10/33) in placebo group . The efficacy of the TCM group was better than that of the ibuprofen group (χ²=-2.971, P<0.01), and the efficacy of the ibuprofen group was better than that of the placebo group (χ²=-2.371, P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of CD3⁺, CD4⁺ and CD4⁺/CD8⁺ in TCM group were significantly increased and the levels of CD8⁺ were decreased significantly as compared with those before treatment (P<0.01). After treatment, the levels of CD4⁺ and CD4⁺/CD8⁺ in TCM group were higher (P<0.05，P<0.01)，while the levels of CD8⁺ were significantly lower than those in ibuprofen group and placebo group (P<0.01). Conclusion:Wenjing Huayu Zhitong therapy can reduce the VAS score and accumulative time of abdominal pain, and improve the dysmenorrhea symptoms in patients with PD. Reversal of the T cell subsets disorder may be one of its mechanisms in treating PD with cold coagulation and blood stasis.
