Objective To observe the preventive value of recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor(rhG-CSF)in cancer patients after chemotherapy.Methods In the open study,enrolled 52 patients with previously untreated cancer and with normal bone marrow function were randomly divided into 2 matched groups,A and B group.Each patient received one cycle of chemotherapy.In the study cycle,the pa- tients received a single subcutaneous injection of rhG-CSF 150 ?g before 24 hours of chemotherapy and in control cycle the patients only received chemotherapy.Efficacy and safety parameters were monitored.Results The incidence rates of leukopenia in the 26 valuable study cycles and 26 valuable control cycles were 19.23 % and 53.85 %,There were significant lower than those of group B(P

Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy and safety of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir in the treatment of pa-tients with hepatitis C virus(HCV)and human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)co-infection,and provide scientific basis for clinical treatment.Methods 89 initially treated non-cirrhotic patients with HCV/HIV co-infection in a hospital of Butuo County of Liangshan Prefecture from January 2021 to January 2022 were selected.All patients re-ceived glecaprevir/pibrentasvir treatment for 8 weeks and were followed up for 12 weeks.Virological response rate at the end-of-treatment and sustained virological response rate after 12 weeks(SVR12)of treatment as well as oc-currence of adverse reaction were recorded.Results Among 89 initially treated non-cirrhotic patients with HCV/HIV co-infection,most were middle-aged and young married men(n=79,88.8%).HIV was mainly transmitted through sexual contact(n=62,69.7%)and intravenous drug use(n=27,30.3%).The most common HCV geno-types were genotype 1b(n=33,37.1%)and genotype 3b(n=25,28.1%).All patients completed 8 weeks of treatment successfully and HCV RNA load at the end of treatment was below the detection limit(<25 IU/mL).Eight patients failed to complete the follow-up,and the remaining 81(100%)patients achieved a sustained virologic re-sponse.There were no serious adverse reactions during the observation period,but 11 patients had mild adverse re-actions.Conclusion The 8-week treatment regimen of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir for non-cirrhotic patients with geno-type 1,3,and 6 HCV/HIV co-infection can achieve 100%SVR12,with high safety and tolerability,which can be used as a good choice for clinical treatment of these patients.

OBJECTIVES:
To observe the changes of cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) expression in the cerebral cortex after brain contusion at different times.
METHODS:
An experimental model of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in mice was established by an improved weight-drop device. Then Western blotting and immunohistochemical examination were used to detect the CBS expression in cerebral cortex around injury at different time points (1 h, 6 h, 12 h, 1 d, 2 d, 3 d, 7 d).
RESULTS:
The results of Western blotting revealed that the expression level of CBS was down-regulated and reached its lowest level at the 3rd days after injury, and then restored to normal level after 7 days. The results of immunohistochemistry showed that CBS was present in the normal brain cortex. CBS expression gradually decreased at the 3rd days after injury, and then restored to normal level after 7 days.
CONCLUSIONS
CBS has the potential to be a reference index for time estimation after brain contusion in forensic practice.
