OBJECTIVETo explore the quality of life and related social support among people living with HIV/AIDS with related factors.
METHODS331 people living with HIV/AIDS and 148 of their family members were selected using a typical sampling method. Questionnaires on general conditions, tables on history of infection, generic quality of life inventory-74 (GQOLI-74) and social support scale (SSS) were used.
RESULTSData from one-way analysis suggested that people living with HIV/AIDS and their family members with the different sexs, different villages and different cultural backgrounds had differences in GQOLI-74 scores (P < 0.05) while people living with HIV/AIDS with the different villages had differences in SSS scores (P < 0.05). Results from Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that being elderly and negative life events were negatively associated with social support (P < 0.05), while factors as more advanced educational background, harmonious neighborhood relationship and having bother pouring nature were the predictive factors (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONMany factors might affect dimensions of quality of life among people living with HIV/AIDS and their family members in rural areas of northern Anhui. Community care and social support of HIV/AIDS should still be greatly enhanced in the countryside of China. A community care mode based on family and neighborhood was expected to be developed.

8.Detection and sequences analysis of bovine hepatitis E virus RNA in Xinjiang Autonomous Region.
Chinese Journal of Virology 2010;26(1):27-32
Reverse transcription-nested polymerase chain reaction (RT-nPCR) was used to detect HEV (Hepatitis E virus, HEV) RNA in dung or anus-swab samples collected from the cows with the positive anti-HEV antibodies in dairy farms in Xinjiang Autonomous Region. 7 of 60 (11.67%) cows were positive for HEV RNA in one farm. 1 of 31 (3.23%) cows was positive in the other farm. PCR amplification products were cloned, sequenced and analyzed. The result showed that the homology among the 8 bovine HEV ORF2 189bp nucleotide amplification sequences was 96.3%-100.0%, suggesting the same genotype. Compared with HEV genotype 1, 2, 3 and 4 corresponding 189 bp nucleotide sequences, the average homology was 78.5%-86.4%, 81.7%-83.8%, 79.1%-85.3% and 84.3%-95.8% respectively. The maximum homology between 8 nucleotide amplification sequences and one sequence of genotype 4 was 93.2%-95.8%. Based on the sequence of the nucleic acid fragments, a phylogenetic tree was constructed. It was illustrated that 8 bovine HEV ORF2 189bp nucleotide amplification sequences in this study and human C5 strain, swine swC3, swXJ strain belonged to genotype 4. The finding suggested that infection of HEV probably existed in the cow group in Xinjiang Autonomous Region and the cow might be a new animal host except swine in origin of HEV infection.

Objective To explore the feasibility of constructing tissue engineered porcine corneal stroma with skin fibroblasts in vivo.Methods Skin fibroblasts were isolated from embryonic porcine,cultured and expanded in vitro.Cells were labeled with green fluorescence protein(GFP) gene by retro-viral infection.Cells at passage 3 were seeded on polyglycolic acid(PGA) non-woven fibers to form a cell-scaffold complex.The complexes were then implanted into porcines' corneal stroma after culturing in vitro for 1 week.Engineered stroma was observed continuously and harvested after 8 weeks for gross and histological evaluation.PGA with corneal stromal cells was served as control. Results The engineered tissue in the stroma gradually became transparent over a period of 8 weeks,showing no difference with the control group.Histologically,the engineered stromal lamellar was relatively regular and similar to the control.The implanted cells were confirmed by GFP expression under fluorescent microscope.By transmission electron microscopy examination, no significant difference in the diameter of collagen fiber was observed between the engineered stroma and normal stroma. Conclusion Tissue engineered corneal stroma may be formed with skin fibroblasts in porcine corneal microenvironment.

OBJECTIVE To study the isolation and resistance tendency of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-baumannii to antimicrobial agents from 1998 to 2004 to provide valuable data for infection prevention and therapy. METHODS We reviewed the isolation rates,distribution in clinical specimens and wards,and the resistance rates of(A.calcoaceticus-baumannii)to 14 kinds of antimicrobial agents from 1998 to 2004. RESULTS There was an increasing tendency of isolation rates of A.calcoaceticus-baumannii every year,which was 0.18% in 1998 but 1.48% in 2004.In the seven years,there was the highest isolation rate of 70.58% in specimens from respiratory tract,the next was from the urine(9.42%),and blood(4.63%).Concerning the wards distribution,ICU had the highest rate of 47.28%.In 1998,A.calcoaceticus-baumannii had resistance rates more than 50% only to one kind of antimicrobial agents(aztreonam),but in 2004,it had increased to thirteen kinds(except cefoperazone/sulbactam).About the fourteen kinds of antimicrobial agents we inspected,that were increased in their resistance rate.The highest increasing of resistance rate was ceftazidime from 11.1% in 1998 to 88.9% in 2004,the imipenem was second for 0.0% to 64.8%,and the third was sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim form 0.0% to 64.0%,while there still was an increasing resistance tendency to them. CONCLUSIONS The clinical isolation rate of A.calcoaceticus-baumannii is increasing,and it has higher resistance rates to many antimicrobial agents as well as an increasing resistance tendency to relatively susceptive antimicrobial agents every year.So physicians should prescribe on the basis of antimicrobial agents susceptibility tests in vitro.
