This article reviews studies regarding "sero-sorting" among MSM living with HIV/AIDS,for the purpose of analyzing its positive impact on reducing HIV incidence and promoting HIV testing and sero-status disclosure to sex partners. Contradictive issues in terms of implementing "sero-sorting" are also discussed in this article to provide some information for further conducting MSM related interventions in China.

BACKGROUND: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are commonly observed under the scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope and inverted microscope. However, above-mentioned observation methods have disadvantages on observing ultrastructure of cell membrane and cytoskeleton. OBJECTIVE: To establish a more effective and appropriate method to isolate, culture and identification of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) in vitro and to study the ultrastructure of osteogenic differentiation with the atomic force microscope. METHODS: The hUCMSCs were isolated from human umbilical cord by digested with collagenase. After serial subcultivation in vitro, the stem cells were passaged, and osteogenic differentiation was determined by alkaline phosphatase calcium-cobalt staining and alizarin red staining. hUCMSCs immunophenotype was measured by Flow cytometry.The membrane surface ultrastructure of osteogenic differentiation was observed by Atomic Force Microscope before and after induction. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The isolated hUCMSCs by digested with collagenase was efficient. After seeded 24 hours, the adherent cell showed spindle shape, polygonal shape and fibroblast-cell-like shape and the size of hUCMSCs was homogeneous. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that CD29, CD44, CD105 were highly expressed on the surface of passages 3 cells, but there was negative for CD34, CD45 and HLA-DR. These cells were high positive for alkaline phosphate staining and also showed significant calcium node using alizarin red staining after 4 weeks culture induction of osteogenic differentiation. Under atomic force microscopy, undifferentiated stem cells demonstrated insignificant microtubule protrution in a parallel distribution following analysis of cytoskeleton before and after differentiation.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and cosmetic results of endoscopic thyroidectomy via breast areola approach.Methods From January 2004 to January 2006,endoscopic thyroidectomy was performed through the breast areola approach in 18 patients with benign thyroid mass.Results The surgery was accomplished successfully in all the 18 cases.The operation time ranged 45-120 min(mean,62 min) for unilateral resection and 90-180 min(mean,98 min) for bilateral resection.The intraoperative blood loss ranged 6-20 ml(mean,11 ml) for unilateral resection,and 15-70 ml(mean,29.5 ml) for bilateral resection.Postoperative hospital stay was 3-5 days.No complication occurred after the operation.The patients were followed up for 6-12 months(mean,9 months).The wound healed well in all the patients,inconspicuous scars or no recurrence was observed during the follow-up.Conclusions Endoscopic thyroidectomy via breast areola approach is a safe and feasible procedure with satisfying neck cosmetic outcome.

Objective To observe clinical therapeutic effect of Yiqi Huayu Prescription for diabetes peripheral nerve and blood vessel pathological change. Methods One hundred patients with diabetes peripheral nerve and blood vessel pathological change were randomly divided into two groups. The patients in control group (n=48) were treated by routine treatment. The patients in treatment group (n =52) were treated by oral use of Yiqi Huayu Prescription and routine treatment. Their therapeutic effects were compared after three courses of treatment, which was 30 days. Results The total effective rate was 92.9% in the treatment group and 61.1% in the control group. There was significant difference between the two groups (P 0.05). The internal diameter of the dorsal pedal artery and popliteal artery and the peak value of flow rate of the treatment group were improved (P

Objective To analyze the effect of polydatin on cardiac function and mitochondrion of platelet in peripheral blood of patients with severe hemorrhagic shockpolydatin.Methods 60 patients with severe hemorrhagic shock from January 2010 to May 2015 in the hospital were selected.The control group adopted the intravenous therapy of normal saline and transfusion therapy and observation group adopted polydatin (10mg/kg) and transfusion therapy.After treatment, the cardiac function index including heart ejection fraction and and cardiac output, protein kinase C (PKC), ATP levels in mitochondria of platelet, platelet mitochondrial membrane potential and lipid peroxide ( LPO ) in platelet were compared between two groups.Results After treatment, the ejection fraction and cardiac output of two groups increased compared with pre-treatment ( P <0.05 ) , and the above indicators in observation group increased compared with control group (P<0.05).After treatment, PKC content in cell membrane and cytoplasm increased compared with pre-treatment (P<0.05), and the above indicators in observation group increased compared with control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the ATP level in two groups increased compared with pre-treatment (P<0.05), and the above indicator in observation group increased compared with control group ( P <0.05 ).After treatment, platelet cell rate of low mitochondrial membrane potential in observation group decreased compared with pre-treatment (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in control group, the above indicator in observation group was lower than that in control group (P<0.05).After treatment, LPO content in observation group decreased compared with pre-treatment (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in control group, the above indicator in observation group was lower than that in control group (P<0.05).Conclusion The injury of mitochondrion plays an important role in occurrence and development of severe hemorrhagic shockpolydatin.The function of peripheral blood platelet mitochondrion could be seen as a simple index of judging the state of shock.After the application of protective agent of mitochondrion, the function of mitochondrion is protected.The cardiac function is also improved.It has an important significance for the diagnosis of severe shock.

Objective To observe the protective effect of Ulinastatin in rat islet isolation and advance an improved method in rat pancreas islet isolation.Methods Rat pancreas was perfused with Hanks solution containing collagenase. The rats were divided into 3 group according the Ulinastatin concentrations in collagense: low-concentration Ulinastatin ( 2500 U/ml) group, high-concentration Ulinastatin ( 5000 U/ml) and control group (no Ulinastatin). The isolated pancreases were compared among the groups. Results The shape and number of the isolated pancreases in low-concentration Ulinastatin and high-concentration Ulinastatin groups were superior to those in control group (P

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of immunoglobulin G (IgG) extravasated from blood circulation on the expression of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) induced by peripheral lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in rat brain. Methods The rats were divided into four groups in random, 5 rats in each. Group one received LPS 100μg/kg by intraperitoneal administration, normal saline was given by intravenous injection 6 hours later; group two was injected with adrenalin (AD) 15μg/kg intravenously; group three was treated with LPS intraperitoneally, AD was injected 6 hours later; group four was injected normal saline intravenously as control. For all groups, the animals were sacrificed 30 min after the last injection, and the brains were taken for investigation of the TLR4 expressions by immunofluorescence staining and RT-PCR. Result Immunofluorescence staining showed that IgG immunoreactive product was patch-like, distributed in the brain parenchyma in all the animals that received AD. In the LPS+normal saline group, IgG was found merely around the blood vessels. Meanwhile, in LPS+AD animals, TLR4 immunoreactive product coexisted with microglia marker Iba-1 within the IgG extravasated area. The double-labeled cells dispersed in the brain parenchyma and near to the cerebral vessels. In the LPS+saline group, TLR4 positive cells were endothelial-like. RT-PCR results indicated that the expression level of TLR4 in the LPS+AD group were significantly higher than that in the LPS+saline group or AD group or the saline control (P<0.01). Conclusion Extravasated circulating IgG may enhance the TLR4 expression in the rat brain induced by peripheral LPS.
