Objective:To study relationship among serum homocysteine (Hcy) level ,paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity and carotid atherosclerosis .Methods:A total of 179 residents from a community of Shanghai ,who participated in cardiovascular risk factor screening from 2012 to 2014 ,were selected .They received carotid ultrasonic examination and measurements of serum Hcy ,PON1 and other biomarkers .According to serum Hcy level ,subjects were divided into elevated Hcy group (n=85) and normal Hcy group (n=94) .Results:Spearman correlation analysis indicated that serum Hcy level was significant inversely correlated with PON1 activity (r= -0.738 ,P=0.001) .Compared with normal Hcy group ,there were signifi‐cant rise in age [(60.66 ± 7.18) years vs .(64.57 ± 7.29) years] ,male proportion (27.66% vs .63.53% ) ,serum creati‐nine [(69.62 ± 12.76)μmol/L vs .(88.47 ± 20.86)μmol/L] ,uric acid [(267.85 ± 63.02)μmol/L vs .(307.51 ± 76.07)μmol/L] ,triglyceride [(1.33 ± 0.79) mmol/L vs .(1.76 ± 1.70) mmol/L]and systolic blood pressure [(134.93 ± 15.82) mmHg vs .(142.72 ± 17.86) mmHg] ,and significant reductions in levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL‐C , (1.17 ± 0.26) mmol/L vs .(1.06 ± 0.27) mmol/L]and PON1 [(288.58 ± 73.80) kU/L vs .(187.81 ± 16.31) kU/L]in el‐evated Hcy group , P<0. 05 or <0. 01. Incidence rate of carotid atherosclerosis in elevated Hcy group was significantly higher than that of normal Hcy group (64. 7% vs .44. 7% ) , P=0. 001 .Multi‐variate gradual Logistic regression analysis indicated that serum creatinine and Hcy levels were independent risk factors for serum PON 1 activity(OR=1.055 ,1.139 , P<0.01 ,<0.05);Hcy isn′t an independent risk factor (OR=1.020 ,P=0.497) for carotid atherosclerosis .Conclusion:Serum Hcy level is significant inversely correlated with serum PON 1 activity ,and both of them are related to occurrence of carotid atherosclerosis .

To evaluate the therapeutic effect of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), we performed HSCT in 30 patients with hematologic maligancies. Of the 30 patients, 10 underwent autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (auto-PBSCT), 13 underwent myeloablative allogeneic HSCT while 7 underwent nonmyeloablative allogeneic HSCT, which were designated as autologous group, myeloablative group and nonmyeloablative group, respectively. All patients except the one who underwent cord blood transplantation, were successfully engrafted. Median time for the granulocytes > or = 0.5 x 10(9)/L and platelets > or = 20 x 10(9)/L were 12 days and 13 days respectively in autologous group, 16 days and 19 days in myeloablative group, 15 days and 12 days in nonmyeloablative group. In myeloablative group, acute graft-versus-host diseases (aGVHD) was observed in 3 patients, all of which were I-II grade. Oral mucous cGVHD was observed in 1 patient. In nonmyeloablative group, 1 patient developed intestinal aGVHD grade IV and cutaneous cGVHD was induced by donor lymphocyte infusions (DLI) in 3 patients. 1 patient had hematological relapse in autologous group. 1 patient had cytogenetic relapse in myeloablative group. In nonmyeloablative group 3 patients had cytogenetic relapse and were cured by DLI, 1 patient had hematological relapse. 4 of the 30 patients died of infection (2 patients), grade IV aGVHD (1) and relapse (1) respectively. 26 patients are still alive. 3 years overall survival (OS) and 3 years disease free survival (DFS) were 100% and 64.81% respectively in autologous group, 78.75% and 63% respectively in myeloablative group while both 66.67% in nonmyeloablative group. In conclusion, autologous group had less transplant-related complications and mortality. Active prophylaxis of relapse could significantly promote DFS. The transplant-related mortality limited DFS in myeloablative group. More relapses occurred in nonmyeloablative group, but could be cured by DLI.

Undicalcified autologous dentin particles(UADP)combined platelet rich fibrin(PRF)were used in a case after extraction of the left mandibular second molar for tooth extraction site preservation.CBCT images at 3,9 and 24 months after operation showed that the bone mass maintenance effect was obvious.Histological sections showed a large number of new bone formation around dentin particles.

Objective To explore application of nursing emergency measures in admission care of patients with influenza infection in Infectious Disease Emergency Department. Methods In order to response to the pandemic influenza in the winter of 2017, Beijing Ditan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University started the rapidly response mechanism to emergency, including rationally allocating human resources, strengthening district disinfection and isolation, putting disinfection and isolation, personal protection and quality care into practice, to effectively respond to public health emergencies. Results A total of 9 190 patients were admitted to the Infectious Disease Emergency Department within 54 days, including 5 953 influenza patients, of those, 5 687 observed influenza patients recovered and discharged. The other 266 patients were admitted to the hospital, and 10 patients were admitted to the intensive care unit for early diagnosis of severe cases. Ultimately 264 patients recovered and were discharged but 2 patients died. Throughout the nursing process, none cross-infections occurred among patients and none infections occurred in medical personnel. Conclusions Scientific management methods and effective nursing emergency management systems are important for the department to quickly respond to public health emergencies.

Objective: To explore the association between T-cell receptor beta variable (TCR BV) complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) spectratyping and CMV activation in the recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).Methods:Fluorescence quantitative PCR melting curve analysis was used to sequence 24 TCR BV families in 7 HSCT recipients and 3 healthy controls .CMV-pp65 antigenemia was measured by immunohistochemical staining .Plasma IgM specific for CMV was identified using ELISA .Relationship between TCR BV families and CMV activation was statistically analyzed .Results: Twenty-four TCR BV families were expressed in 3 healthy controls, while TCR BV CDR3 sequencing results in 7 recipients turned out to be BV9, BV11, BV17, BV20 and so on.Amino acid sequence features were as follows: TCR BV9 contained “QVRGGTDTQ”, TCR BV11 contained“VATDEQ” and “LGDEQ”, TCR BV17 contained “IGQGNTEA”, and TCR BV20 contained “VGLAANEQ”.Five recipients suffered from pp65 antigenemia in 3 month after transplantation , and pp65-positive cells ranged from 2 to 15 per 5 ×104 white blood cells.Three recipients were CMV-IgM positive.No significant differences were found in TCR BV families between pp 65-positive recipients and pp65-negative recipients ( all P>0.05 ) .But there was statistically significant difference in frequency of TCR BV11 between CMV-IgM negative recipients and CMV-IgM positive recipients ( P<0.05 ) .Conclusion: T cell immune response was characterized by special TCR BV CDR3 spectratyping in HSCT recipients , and TCR BV11 expression may be associated with CMV activation .

To explore the association between T-cell receptor beta variable (TCR BV) complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) spectratyping and CMV activation in the recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).Fluorescence quantitative PCR melting curve analysis was used to sequence 24 TCR BV families in 7 HSCT recipients and 3 healthy controls. CMV-pp65 antigenemia was measured by immunohistochemical staining. Plasma IgM specific for CMV was identified using ELISA. Relationship between TCR BV families and CMV activation was statistically analyzed.Twenty-four TCR BV families were expressed in 3 healthy controls, while TCR BV CDR3 sequencing results in 7 recipients turned out to be BV9, BV11, BV17, BV20 and so on. Amino acid sequence features were as follows:TCR BV9 contained "QVRGGTDTQ", TCR BV11 contained "VATDEQ" and "LGDEQ", TCR BV17 contained "IGQGNTEA", and TCR BV20 contained "VGLAANEQ". Five recipients suffered from pp65 antigenemia in 3 month after transplantation, and pp65-positive cells ranged from 2 to 15 per 5×10white blood cells. Three recipients were CMV-IgM positive. No significant differences were found in TCR BV families between pp65-positive recipients and pp65-negative recipients (all>0.05). But there was statistically significant difference in frequency of TCR BV11 between CMV-IgM negative recipients and CMV-IgM positive recipients (<0.05).T cell immune response was characterized by special TCR BV CDR3 spectratyping in HSCT recipients, and TCR BV11 expression may be associated with CMV activation.
