Objective To understand the existing deficiency in the work of preventing HIV transmission from mother to child.Methods The diagnostic occasions of 179 HIV positive pregnant women(189 pregnant times)in some counties in Hubei,Shanxi,and Hebei were collected,including measures for prevention.The reasons for the missing prevention for HIV positive pregnant women were analyzed.Results The HIV positive rate in pregnant women in the counties enrolled in this study was 0.26‰.Percentage of HIV pregnant women who were found in antepartum,intrapartum,and postpartum were 66.7%,7.4%,and 25.9% respectively.Some HIV positive pregnant women missed the prevention in all of three periods.In HIV positive pregnant women found antepartum,some rejected prevention.The missing reason for HIV positive pregnant women found intrapartum failed to get ARV drug.HIV positive pregnant women found postpartum missed the prevention.Conclusions There is some progress in the work of preventing HIV transmission from mother to child in China,but some HIV positive pregnant women can not be detected in time,and the percentage of HIV pregnant women who have received comprehensive measures is low.The work of PMTCT therefore needs to be improved.

Objection To investigate the spectrum and survival status of HIV positive cancer in HuBei province, China. Methods HIV positive cancer patients were added up and followed up who had registered in Zhongnan Hospital between January 2004 and June 2009. The prognostic features were determined for HIV patients with cancer. Results The average age of HIV positive and HIV negative group who suffered with malignant neoplasm were 42.5±8.8 years and 55.1±13.7 years respectively (P ＜0.05), mean CD4 counts were (220.9±142.3)/μl and (554.4±174.3)/μl, respectively (P ＜0.05), the types of common cancer were NHL, cervical cancer, liver cancer and lung cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer, respectively. Anticancer and/or ART treatment were the important positive prognostic factors. Additional factors such as age and CD4 count were associated with survival of cancer patients with HIV infection. Conclusion Mean age of HIV positive cancer patients is about 42 years old. NHL, cervical cancer and liver cancer are HIV associated malignant tumor. ART and anticancer can effectively prolong the survival of HIV infected patients with cancer.

Carotenoids play an important role in regulating the hydrogen production of hydrogen-producing Rhodobacter sp. The carotenoids of hydrogen-producing Rhodobacter sp. grown in acetate medium were extracted by using acetone-methanol (7∶2,V/V) solvent and were separated by using thin-layer chromatography on silica-gel plate. The qualitative and quantitative of the carotenoids were analyzed by spectrometry. The results showed that the carotenoids were completely extracted three times with acetone-methanol (7∶2,V/V) in two hours. The ultrasonication had little effect on yield of carotenoids. The yield of carotenoids was 2.81mg/g wet cell. There were 4 spots on the silica-gel plate in the order of yellow, red, light red and light yellow. Yellow spot and red spot were the dominant composition of carotenoid in Rhodobacter sp. The spectrometry data showed that the yellow and red component might be the spheroidene and spirilloanthin respectively.

Objective To evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of human papillomaviruses (HPV)infection among human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)-positive women.Methods Totally 178HIV-positive and 122 HIV-negative women were enrolled.Structured interviews,peripheral CD4 + T cells counts and cervical specimens were obtained.Polymerase chain reaction(PCR)assay was used to identify HPV types. SPSS 16.0 was used for statistical analysis,and logistic regression was used to identify independent prognostic factors for high-risk HPV infection. Results HPV positive rate,high-risk and multiple HPV infection rates were 38.2% vs.12.3% ,35.4% vs.8.2% ,and 13.5% vs.3.3% in HIVpositive women and HIV-negative women,respectively,and the differences were of statistical significance (x2 =24.77,29.08 and 8.91,P ＜0.05).The common types of high-risk HPV were similar between HIV-positive and HIV-negative women(HPV16,52,58 and 18).CD4 + T count ＜ 350/pL,HIV-positive in husband,and HIV infection through sexual contact were risk factors for high-risk HPV infection in HIV-positive women.Conclusion sThe prevalence of HPV infection in HIV-infected women is high,especially for high-risk HPV infection and multiple infection.High-risk HPV infection usually occurs in HIV-positive women with low immune status,HIV infection through sexual contact and HIV-positive husband.

Objective To compare and quantify the determinants in quantitative electroencephalogram(q-EEG) and heart rate variability power spectrum analysis(HRV-PSA) of ketamme(KTM) anesthesia for preschoolers. Methods Seventy four cases were selected and assigned into 3 groups named A(4-5 years), B(5-6 years), C(6-7 years), 22,28,24 cases in every group respectively. All cases were induced with KTM 5 mg /kg intramuscularly and changes of determinants were recorded continuously. If body movement happened, KTM would be injected with 1 mg/kg. Results On pre- anesthesia, BIS in group A was the least among 3 groups, while LF/HF and HRVI were the largest(P

Objective To investigate the stability of immunophenotyping in the course of relapse or at treatment failure of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL) and that of immunophenotyping of positive minimal residual disease(MRD).Methods From Aug.2000 to Dec.2007,33 children with ALL who relapsed or treated failure were enrolled. These children were detected MRD by flow cytometry. The immunophenotyping of children who relapsed or treated failure were compared with that of initial therapy;the immunophenotyping of MRD relapsed was compared with that of initial therapy.Results 1.In 23 out of 27 cases (85.18%) with B-ALL,changed at least 1 antigen between diagnosis and relapse.Six children with CD45 down-modulation and 2 children with CD45 up-modulation.Two children with CD19 down-modulation and 1 child with CD19 up-modulation.Six children with CD34 down-modulation and 4 children with CD34 up-modulation. Five children with CD10 down-modulation and 7 children with CD10 up-modulation.2.Six children with T-ALL had the same expression in CD45 between relapse and treatment failure. 3.These were 15 children had the least 1 case MRD,25 cases MRD were detected,these was 1 case up-modulation in CD45,1 case down-modulation in CD19,2 cases up-modulation and 8 cases down-modulation in CD34,3 cases up-modulation and 6 cases down-modulation in CD10.Conclusions Immunophenotyping of children with ALL may change at relapse and treatment failure. The frequency of change in B-ALL is higher than that of in T-ALL,but the change can not impact the detection of MRD.

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of end-stage liver disease (ESLD) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) co-infected patients after antiretroviral therapy (ART).Methods The demographic and clinical data of HIV-HCV coinfected patients in Zhongnan Hospital,Wuhan University and local Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) from Jan 2003 to Dec 2010 were analyzed retrospectively. Single factor and multiple factor Logistic regression were used to analyze the correlation between the variables and incidence of ESLD,such as baseline age ≥40,male,previous blood transfusion history,duration of HCV persistent infection,hepatitis B virus (HBV) co-infection (HBsAg positive),HIV RNA≥-1 ×104 copy/mL at last visit,HCV RNA≥ 1.× 105 copy/mL at last visit,CD4 count ＞ 200 / μL at last visit,alanine aminotranferase (ALT) ≥ 2 × upper limit normal (ULN) at last visit,ART containing nevirapine (NVP),follow-up duration,ART duration＞5 years and HCV genotype 1b.The effect of ESLD on the survival of HIV-HCV co-infected patients was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method.Results Totally 427 HIV-HCV co-infected patients were followed up with average of 3.7 years. Fifty-five patients (12.9％) developed ESLD,and 52 patients (12.2％) died.Factors independently associated with ESLD included baseline age≥40 (OR=2.385,P=0.039),ALT ≥2× ULN (OR=16.374,P=0.000),HBV-coinfection (OR=2.507,P=0.042),duration of ART ＞ 5 years (OR=3.232,P=0.010),and CD4 count ≥200/μL (OR=0.364,P=0.011).The cumulative mortality of HIV-HCV co-infected patients with ESLD was 50.9％,whereas that of HIV-HCV co-infected patients without ESLD was 6.5％ (P=0.000).Conclusion In the ART era,ESLD is common among HIV-HCV co-infected patients in China,which is responsible for reducing the survival time of the patients.
